"Yet, our reliance on synthetic fertilizer using the 100-year old Haber-Bosch process has major downsides: the production, transportation, and over-application of fertilizer generate 7% of global GHG emissions, especially in runoff of N2O, which has 265x the warming potential of CO2...Nitricity sells ultra-low-cost, solar-powered plasma cells that produce fertilizer on-site and on-demand. Their technology fixes nitrogen from the air, then combines it with other nutrients to produce a range of products, such as nitric acid and calcium nitrate."
