IFS AQAM Series Anhydrous Ammonia Storage, Unloading, and Transfer Systems are engineered to safely handle and pressurize anhydrous ammonia from storage through to the Ammonia Flow Control Unit (AFCU) for downstream vaporization and injection.
These systems are designed as complete, application-specific engineered systems that integrate unloading, storage, and transfer into a single modular ammonia handling solution. By minimizing field assembly and simplifying installation, IFS systems improve reliability while ensuring safe operation in hazardous ammonia environments.
Complete Anhydrous Ammonia Handling System Overview
IFS anhydrous ammonia systems are designed to support the full process from delivery to injection, including:
Truck or railcar unloading systems
Pressurized ammonia storage vessels (ASME-coded)
Transfer and forwarding pump systems
Integration with ammonia vaporizer systems and AFCU units
Instrumentation, controls, and safety systems for hazardous service
This system-level approach ensures consistent ammonia supply, reduced downtime, and reliable performance for SCR and industrial ammonia applications.
Designed for Pressurized Ammonia Applications
Anhydrous ammonia requires specialized system design due to its pressurized storage and hazardous properties. IFS systems are engineered to:
Safely manage high-pressure ammonia transfer
Minimize leak risk and operator exposure
Ensure compliance with industry codes and plant safety requirements
Support continuous operation in demanding industrial environments
Typical applications include SCR systems for NOx reduction, power generation facilities, and industrial process plants.
