Generation 2 moves the Haber-Bosch process to renewable sources of hydrogen. The process generates H 2 from natural gas or coal through steam reforming and combines it with N 2 , which has been separated from air by a cryogenic process, to form NH 3. The reaction between N 2 and H 2 requires temperatures in excess of 400 ?
