Origin: From proper names. Etymons: proper name Haber, Bosch.

Etymology: < the names of Fritz Haber, who developed the process (see Haber n.) and Carl Bosch (1874–1940), German chemist, who translated it to an industrial scale in 1912–13. Compare German Haber-Bosch-Verfahren (1918 or earlier).

Chemistry.

attributive. Designating a process for producing ammonia directly from nitrogen and hydrogen gases, under carefully controlled conditions of pressure and temperature and using a metallic catalyst; of, relating to, involved in, or produced by this process.Ammonia synthesized by the Haber–Bosch process is the major source of the nitrogen necessary for the production of artificial fertilizers.
