The ammonia product is an important chemical raw material and is also an important nitrogen fertilizer. Nitrogen fertilizer is generally produced by synthesizing ammonia and then processing into various iron salts or urea, so that the synthetic ammonia industry is indispensable in production and life. Therefore, the existing numerous ammonia synthesizing devices in China are required to be the primary targets for energy conservation. Because the synthesis ammonia needs hydrogen and nitrogen as raw materials, the hydrogen is generally prepared by taking natural gas as raw materials and through water-gas shift; nitrogen is obtained by an air separation process. In the process, a large amount of raw materials mainly containing energy substances are needed, and meanwhile, the cold energy requirement is high in the production process.

With the remarkable improvement of the requirements on environmental protection and ecological environment, the liquefied natural gas LNG import quantity in China is increased year by year. At the LNG receiving terminal, LNG needs to be heated to gasify to natural gas for later use.
