Main products include ammonia, sulfuric acid, ammonium phosphate-sulfate (FACTAMFOS), ammonium sulfate, zincated ammonium phosphate, caprolactam, and also complex fertilizers. gypsum, nitric acid, soda ash and coloured ammonium sulfate are major by-products.

5. Soil acidification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_acidification

   While most nitrogen fertilizers have an acidifying effect, ammonium-based nitrogen fertilizers are more acidifying than other nitrogen sources. [15] Ammonia-based nitrogen fertilizers include ammonium sulfate, diammonium phosphate, monoammonium phosphate, and ammonium nitrate. Organic nitrogen sources, such as urea and compost, are less acidifying.

6. Ammonium sulfamate - Wikipedia

   Ammonium sulfamate (or ammonium sulphamate) is a white crystalline solid, readily soluble in water. It is commonly used as a broad spectrum herbicide , with additional uses as a compost accelerator, flame retardant and in industrial processes.

7. Labeling of fertilizer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labeling_of_fertilizer

   Fertilizers are usually labeled with three numbers, as in 18-20-10, indicating the relative content of the primary macronutrients nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K), respectively. More precisely, the first number ("N value") is the percentage of elemental nitrogen by weight in the fertilizer; that is, the mass fraction of nitrogen ...

8. Fertilizer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fertilizer

   Nitrogen fertilizers are made from ammonia (NH 3) produced by the Haber–Bosch process. [28] In this energy-intensive process, natural gas (CH 4) usually supplies the hydrogen, and the nitrogen (N 2) is derived from the air. This ammonia is used as a feedstock for all other nitrogen fertilizers, such as anhydrous ammonium nitrate (NH 4 NO 3 ...

9. Sulfate nitrates - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate_nitrates

   Two sulfate nitrates are in the class of anthropogenic compounds, accidentally made as a result of human activities in fertilizers that are a mix of ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate, and also in the atmosphere as polluting ammonia, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide react with the oxygen and water there to form solid particles.
