It is an explosive, releasing sulfur and nitrogen when detonated.
It would have to release nitrogen held in the water.
However, this is only temporary, as the plants release nitrogen back into the water when older leaves die off and decompose.
To fool the temperature sensor, he releases liquid nitrogen inside the room.
They recommend using slow-release fertilizers that release nitrogen at a rate similar to plant needs.
The two work simultaneously, slowly releasing nitrogen, letting it 'drip' from the system and then seep into the soil.
Impacting asteroids on these nitrate beds would release additional nitrogen and oxygen into the atmosphere.
It releases nitrogen into the compartment, to kill any bacteria, then uses microwaves to make sure nothing's left.
It also releases nitrogen into the soil through its roots, which is why just growing beans or peas can fertilize your ground.
Nitrilimines were first observed in the thermal decomposition of 2-tetrazoles releasing nitrogen:
