Integrating clean ammonia: Chain of custody approaches

In this unique paper, Argus analyse how efforts to decarbonise the ammonia industry could see a decoupling of physical ammonia molecules from their low-carbon attributes. Read this insightful paper to learn more about this key theme, as the industry searches for the most efficient and cost-effective way to integrate low-carbon molecules into an existing ammonia supply chain.

This paper covers:

• Chain of Custody (CoC) - setting the scene
• Production pathways for ammonia - and their Influence on Carbon Intensity (CI)
• Chain of Custody - Mass balance method

  • Examples including OCI, Yara
  • Regulatory vs Voluntary markets - targeting the European RFNBO or low-carbon regulatory market
  • Adoption by other regulatory schemes

• Chain of Custody - Book and claim method

  • Flexibility for economic operators
  • Implementation in renewable electricity industry, LSB's ammonia plan

• Developing an industry standard
