Monoammonium phosphate

CPC v2.1 Code: 34643

About monoammonium phosphate

cpc code 34643 refers to the production and trade of monoammonium phosphate, a critical fertilizer compound used extensively in the agricultural industry. As a key source of nitrogen and phosphorus, monoammonium phosphate plays a vital role in supporting global food production, making it an important component of the broader agricultural economy.

Production process

Monoammonium phosphate is typically produced through the reaction of ammonia and phosphoric acid. This process involves carefully controlling temperature, pressure, and reaction time to ensure the desired chemical composition and purity of the final product. The resulting monoammonium phosphate is then dried, granulated, and packaged for distribution to agricultural producers and other consumers.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of monoammonium phosphate include ammonia, phosphoric acid, and various processing aids such as drying agents and granulation additives. Specialized equipment, including reactors, dryers, and packaging machinery, is also required to manufacture monoammonium phosphate on a commercial scale.

Production outputs

Monoammonium phosphate is primarily consumed by the 31111 Crop and Animal Production industry as a fertilizer, where it is used to supplement soil with essential nutrients for plant growth. It may also be used in 20121 Fertilizer Manufacturing to produce other complex fertilizer formulations or as a raw material in the production of 20119 Other Basic Inorganic Chemical Manufacturing products.
