In my notes, aminization is the process of protein transforming to R-NH2, and ammonia volatilization is the process of transformation between NH3 and NH4+. But you just mentioned that NH3 transform to NH4+ through aminization. I am a bit confused about these processes. Also, NH3 is not inorganic forms of N?

Ammonia volatilization is the conversion of NH4 to NH3 gas, which is lost to the atmosphere. So it holds that NH3 becomes NH4 via aminization.

Be careful gentlemen. See lecture #25, slide #5 the steps in N mineralization: aminization, ammonification and nitrification. The gaseous loss of NH3+ is volatilization - lecture #26, slide #13.
