The growing demand for ammonia (NH3), whether to be used in fertilizers, in the chemical industry or as a hydrogen storage medium, drives the need for production methods compatible with an electrified energy system. Plasma-catalysis offers a promising alternative to the traditional Haber-Bosch process, with potential for decentralization and renewable energy integration. The current understanding of the mechanistic pathways is still limited, thus requiring the need to use diagnostics to understand both the plasma and the surface. In this talk a brief overview of the formation/destruction mechanisms of NH3 will be given followed by a detailed discussion on how IPP can contribute to further the current understanding.
