The traditional Haber-Bosch process for synthesizing ammonia requires the extensive use of iron oxide catalysts and potassium hydroxide promoters. However, this method must be carried out under high temperature (300-500°C) and high pressure (20-40MPa). These harsh production conditions (high temperature and high pressure) pose a huge challenge to environmental protection, and they also produce large carbon dioxide emissions and high energy consumption.

[0003] Compared to traditional iron-based ammonia synthesis catalysts, ruthenium-based ammonia synthesis catalysts can effectively activate nitrogen molecules under low-temperature and low-pressure conditions, achieving excellent catalytic performance and significantly reducing energy consumption in the ammonia synthesis process. Ruthenium-based ammonia synthesis catalysts supported on graphitized activated carbon have achieved industrial application (KAAP process). However, carbon materials are prone to methanation reactions under ammonia synthesis conditions, which reduces the catalyst's stability and service life. Therefore, developing an ammonia synthesis catalyst with high activity, low energy consumption, and high stability is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0106] According to Table 2, a columnar comparison chart of the catalysts obtained in Examples 1 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 and the ammonia synthesis rate is drawn, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 Combined with Table 2 and Figure 2 It can be seen that the ammonia synthesis rate of the catalyst indicates that the ammonia synthesis reaction rate is closely related to the activation of the carrier and the ratio of the precious metal loading. Example 8 shows the best ammonia synthesis reaction rate, reaching 52.87mmolNH3 gcat -1 h -1Ammonia synthesis was carried out using the catalyst of Example 3 at 400°C and 5 MPa for 120 h according to the above method. The conversion rate of ammonia synthesis was measured at 24-h intervals (the catalyst was pre-reduced at 400°C and atmospheric pressure for 5 h, then the temperature and pressure were raised to 400°C and 5 MPa, and the temperature and pressure were stabilized for 3 h before testing began). The results are listed in Table 3.

[0109] According to Table 3, a dotted line graph of the ammonia synthesis rate of the ruthenium-based supported catalyst prepared in Example 3 within 120 hours is drawn, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 shown.

[0110] Combined with Table 3 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the ammonia synthesis rate of the catalyst has no downward trend within 120 hours and remains basically stable, indicating that the catalyst has good catalytic stability.
