Super Phosphate Production Cost Breakup From Phosphate Rock

Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024  | From $ USD

This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of super phosphate production from phosphate rock. The production of super phosphate or single super phosphate (SSP) is carried out by the chemical reaction between phosphate rock and sulfuric acid. Initially, the phosphate rock is ground finely to obtain the correct size of the rock particle for the reaction. The reaction takes place in a reactor carrying sulfuric acid and the phosphate rock particles, and then then left to rest in the granulation drums. It is then passed on through the screening process, where it is milled and screened in order to get the appropriate granules of super phosphate or single super phosphate as the final product.

Top Producers of Super Phosphate

  • KRIBHCO
  • Impact Fertilisers
  • ArrMaz
  • NBCL
  • Triferto Fertilizers

Feedstock for Super Phosphate

Super phosphate is a granulated compound prepared by using phosphate rock and sulfuric acid as its major feedstock. The procurement of super phosphate or single super phosphate (SSP) is governed by different factors. Some of the prominent factors, such as the availability of its feedstocks (including sulfur and oxygen for the preparation of sulfuric acid that serves as a raw material for super phosphate) along with the extraction cost of phosphate rock for super phosphate production, etc., adds up to the factors influencing its procurement.

Moreover, other factors such as variations in the production cost and market prices, stability in the supply chain, logistics, distribution activities, and financial and governmental policies also determine its procurement globally. Similarly, its demand observed in the downstream industries (for agrochemical and crop production operations) governs its overall procurement.
