Ammonia, in aqueous solution
CPC v2.1 Code: 34652
About ammonia, in aqueous solution
cpc code 34652 covers the production and distribution of ammonia in aqueous solution. Ammonia is a critical industrial chemical with a wide range of applications, from fertilizers and cleaning products to pharmaceuticals and refrigerants. As a key input for many industries, the ammonia industry plays a vital role in supporting economic growth and development across various sectors.
Production process
Ammonia in aqueous solution is typically produced through the Haber process, which involves the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen gases under high temperature and pressure conditions. The resulting anhydrous ammonia is then dissolved in water to create the aqueous solution. Careful control of the reaction parameters and purification processes are essential to ensure the quality and consistency of the final product.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of ammonia in aqueous solution include natural gas or other hydrocarbon feedstocks as a source of hydrogen, as well as air or other nitrogen sources. Specialized equipment such as compressors, reactors, and distillation columns are also necessary to facilitate the Haber process and subsequent dissolution of the ammonia. Skilled labor and reliable energy sources are additional critical inputs for this industry.
Production outputs
The primary output of cpc code 34652 is ammonia in aqueous solution, which is then consumed by a variety of downstream industries. These include 31210 Nitrogenous fertilizers, 20411 Soap and detergents, 21201 Pharmaceutical preparations, and 28301 Refrigeration and air conditioning equipment, among others. The versatility of ammonia as a chemical feedstock makes it an essential component in the production of a wide range of products that are vital to modern society.
