fixation reaction

This structural isolation of nitrogen fixation reactions from oxygen in aerobic organisms continues to the present.

The first commercial use of the Frank-Caro process for the nitrogen fixation reaction of calcium carbide and atmospheric nitrogen to produce calcium nitrate as a fertilizer.

Uranium and osmium were early successful catalysts in the Haber process, the nitrogen fixation reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen to produce ammonia, giving enough yield to make the process economically successful.

These tiny pores in the leaf surface are necessary for gas exchange into and out of the plant; carbon dioxide (CO) enters the plant allowing the carbon fixation reactions of photosynthesis to occur.

The Frank-Caro process, also called cyanamide process, is the nitrogen fixation reaction of calcium carbide with nitrogen gas in a reactor vessel at about 1,000 C. The reaction is exothermic and self-sustaining once the reaction temperature is reached.
