Various embodiments of the teachings herein include a process for ammonia synthesis. An example includes: passing a feed gas via an inlet opening over a catalyst within a reactor, wherein the feed gas comprises nitrogen and hydrogen under pressure; passing ammonia produced in the reactor as a wet gas to a condensation unit comprising three heat exchangers configured monolithically with one another, wherein the ammonia condenses; and discharging the subcooled liquid pressurized condensate through a collection channel and discharging the dry gas via an outlet opening. The first heat exchanger causes the wet gas to exchange heat with a dry gas from which ammonia has already condensed, producing a cooled wet gas. The second heat exchanger separates the wet gas into gaseous reactants and a liquid pressurized condensate. The third heat exchanger subcools the liquid pressurized condensate.
