Ammonium Carbonate is an industrial chemical compound that finds huge industrial applications. The compound is widely used as a leavening agent in the preparation of various bakery products, such as flatbreads, cookies, etc. Moreover, it also finds huge applications as a component in the production of cough syrups due to its expectorant properties that help in clearing airways. It is often employed as a smelling salt to revive individuals who have fainted. Additionally, it is also used as a nitrogen source for plants to promote their growth and enhance soil fertility.

The demand for Ammonium Carbonate is primarily driven by its usage as baker’s ammonia in making baked food products, which significantly contributes to its market expansion. Its application as a leavening agent in making flatbreads further accentuates its demand in the food and beverage industry. Moreover, its employment as an expectorant to treat a cough and phlegm notably promotes its demand in the medical, healthcare, and pharmaceutical industries. Additionally, its utilization as a fertilizer in the agriculture sector to provide essential nutrients for plant growth remarkably fuels its market growth. Overall, the availability of raw materials (aqueous ammonia, etc.), its pricing, applications in the agriculture sector, employment in the medical industry, sustainability practices, logistics, and quality standards are some factors that significantly influence industrial Ammonium Carbonate procurement globally.

Raw Material for Ammonium Carbonate Production

According to the Ammonium Carbonate manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Ammonium Carbonate production include Aqueous Ammonia Solution-Carbon dioxide.

Manufacturing Process of Ammonium Carbonate

The extensive Ammonium Carbonate production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production via Chemical Synthesis: This method of production involves the use of aqueous ammonia solution as the raw material for synthesizing ammonium carbonate as the product. The process is initiated by passing carbon dioxide into an aqueous ammonia solution into a reaction column or tower, where carbon dioxide and ammonia react in the presence of water to produce ammonium carbonate as the final product.

Ammonium Carbonate ((NH4)2CO3) comprises an ammonium ion and a carbonate molecule combined to form ammonium carbonate. Its molecular weight measures around 96.09 g/mol. It is a non-flammable chemical that is colorless to white in appearance. It exists as a crystalline solid substance with a strong characteristic odor, similar to ammonia. It is generally white and has a translucent surface appearance, turning opaque when exposed to air.

Moreover, the compound is non-combustible and readily reacts with acids to form salts and carbon dioxide gas. Its density is measured at around 1.50 g/cm3, while its melting point measures around 58°C. It decomposes on boiling and quickly dissolves in water. It also exhibits solubility in various chemical solvents, including acetone, alcohol, and more.
