I can describe applications of industrial chemistry in agriculture, specifically in the production of ammonium salts for fertilisers.
Show transcript
Fertilisers contain nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compounds to promote plant growth.
Ammonia is a feedstock for manufacture of fertilisers, explosives, plastics, dyes and cleaning products.
Ammonia can be used to manufacture ammonium salts and nitric acid.
The laboratory preparation of ammonium salts is not the same as the industrial preparation.
