Ammoniation
Definition
The act of ammoniating and its result; a technological or industrial process through which gaseous or liquid ammonia is introduced into a chemical environment, solutions, or a solid substrate, aiming to modify its acidity, structural reactivity, or nitrogen content. In applied ecology, the term is sometimes used as a partial synonym for ammonification, describing the initial release phase of ammonia from residues.
