SOP (Potassium Sulfate) Production Cost Report

SOP (Potassium Sulfate) is an inorganic compound mainly used in fertilizers in the agriculture industry as it comprises both potassium and sulfur and is ideal for crops that are sensitive to chloride. Technical grade SOP is great for being used in foliar feeding and drip irrigation and is compatible with Mono Ammonium Phosphate, LAN, Urea, Ammonium Sulfate, and Potassium Chloride. SOP is also used in the pharmaceutical industry as an electrolyte making the fluids in the body remain in equilibrium. Also, it has its application in other end-user industries, like as a viscosity-increasing agent or thickener in cosmetics and skin care formulas.

The market for SOP (Potassium Sulfate) is driven by its usage as an effective fertilizer to promote crop yield and plant health, which elevates its demand in the agriculture industry. The rising shift towards sustainable and eco-friendly fertilizers and farming practices amplifies its market appeal. Its application as a chemical reagent in various industries, such as glass production, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, boosts its demand even more.

The growing world population demands more food and crop cultivation, which fuels its demand even further. Overall, industrial SOP (Potassium Sulfate) procurement is influenced by its application in various industries such as agriculture, chemical, glass, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries, the availability of its raw materials (potassium chloride and ammonium sulfate), the cost of its raw materials, the rising shift towards sustainability and eco-friendly fertilizers, growing world population, government initiatives and policies, and global economic worth.

Raw Material for SOP (Potassium Sulfate) Production

According to the SOP (Potassium Sulfate) manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of SOP (Potassium Sulfate) include potassium chloride-ammonium sulfate.

Manufacturing Process of SOP (Potassium Sulfate)

The extensive SOP (Potassium Sulfate) production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

  • Production from potassium chloride and ammonium sulfate: The manufacturing process of SOP (Potassium Sulfate) starts with the reaction of potassium chloride and ammonium sulfate in a reactor tank with constant stirring at a temperature in the range of 30-40 ? for 20-30 minutes, followed by evaporation and crystallization. The final step involves centrifugation, drying, and cooling to produce high-yield Potassium Sulfate.

SOP (Potassium Sulfate) with the formula K2SO4 is a high-quality potash fertilizer, an inorganic compound. It includes 42% Potassium (K) and 17% Sulphur (S). It is mainly available as powdered potassium sulfate, compaction granules and round granules. SOP appears to be a granular crystal or fine white crystalline powder. It is a water-soluble solid with a solubility of 11.1 g/100ml at 20 °C. It has various advantages like lower chlorides since some plants are sensitive to it, additional sulphur to counter Sulfur deficiencies, and lower salinity.
