Manufacturer of potassium nitrate production process - impact on prices Appropriate chemical industry

potassium nitrate is an important inorganic chemical raw materials, natural resources of potassium nitrate in the world is less, mostly derived from potassium chloride. Manufacturer of potassium nitrate production process a variety of the world, there are gradually being eliminated by the market.

now is manufacturer of potassium nitrate is widely adopted by double decomposition method, this method is simple in process, product quality is higher, the cost is relatively low. Still have a kind of ion exchange method is the use of ion exchange resin or zeolite, using potassium chloride and a nitrate to for making potassium nitrate, craft is simple, but the energy consumption is higher. Abroad some vendors using high temperature distillation to produce potassium nitrate, potassium nitrate can make up for the above process, reduce the production cost, but to process conditions demanding, domestic also cannot achieve industrial production.

under normal circumstances, the manufacturer of potassium nitrate with potassium chloride into potassium nitrate to the process, the raw material costs about 60% of the cost of production, so from a technical perspective, the main factors that determine the costs of potassium nitrate is the cost of material, the yield of potassium chloride and nitrate raw materials and by-products of added value, and according to the different process, the price also can appear very big difference.

in addition to manufacturers adopt the reforming process of potassium nitrate, ion exchange method and the consumption of thermal process technology are close to the theoretical value. Because is from transformation of nitrate and ammonium nitrate and sodium nitrate, potassium nitrate manufacturers therefore using ammonium nitrate and sodium nitrate as raw materials to production process of potassium nitrate, it did not reduce the production cost, so the price of this process in the production of potassium nitrate is difficult to come down.

potassium nitrate production process that is used by the manufacturer to determine potassium nitrate production cost, and then determines the price of potassium nitrate, therefore, adopt a suitable production process is one of the key factors influencing the price of potassium nitrate.
