POTASSIUM SULFATE FERTILIZER PRODUCTION LINE
Potassium sulfate is the inorganic compound with formula K2SO4. It is commonly used in fertilizers, providing both potassium and sulfur to soils. Potassium sulfate is a type of fertilizer which can be in granular or powder structure containing 50% potassium (K). Sulfur is in the form of sulfate (SO4) and can be taken directly by the plant. Moreover, it does not contain chlorine and similar substances and is easily used in all kinds of agriculture.
Potassium Sulfate is also an ingredient in cosmetic and skin care formulas when used as a viscosity increasing agent or thickener. Chemical Process Plants produces potassium sulfate production lines in different capacities and specifications and perform turnkey installations.
POTASSIUM SULFATE FERTILIZER PRODUCTION PLANTS
Potassium sulfate production plants will be designed specifically according to characteristics of raw materials to be used in production and also end product form (powder or granule).
Using its process expertise and experience in fertilizers and biomass for the design and installation of chemicals, fertilizers and mineral plants Chemical Process Plants has developed innovative and optimized solutions for potassium sulfate production plant phases.
POTASSIUM SULFATE FERTILIZER PRODUCTION MACHINERY
The selection and proper use of mechanical equipment in potassium sulfate production lines are very important. Because they directly affect the product quality.
Chemical Process Plants is doing turnkey facilities as potassium sulfate plants, with the most secure and simple way included all equipments & machineries for each process stages such as; from crystallizer, centrifuge, dryer, special filter systems to evaporator.
POTASSIUM SULFATE FERTILIZER PRODUCTION PROCESS
Potassium sulfate is made primarily from potassium chloride and sulfuric acid when the by-product HCl is the dominant product. This process is called Mannheim process. It was originally developed for sodium sulfate production.
Differences between production of potassium sulfate and sodium sulfate, sodium chloride is replaced with potassium chloride. To increase the yield of potassium sulfate to a reasonable value, an evaporation stage located between the reactor and the crystallizer is used. The main steps of the production process include dissolution, reaction, and evaporation, crystallization, centrifuging, drying, and then cooling.
