Ammonia is obtained industrially using the Haber–Bosch process, which requires a lot of energy and hydrogen gas. A team of researchers headed by Nicolas Mézailles of the Université Paul Sabatier, CNRS, in Toulouse, France has developed a much milder approach using reactive boron compounds. The boron compounds can efficiently target atmospheric nitrogen and convert it to ammonium chloride after the addition of an acid.
