Fertilizers, mineral or chemical; diammonium hydrogenorthophosphate (diammonium phosphate)

HS v2017 Code: 310530

About fertilizers, mineral or chemical; diammonium hydrogenorthophosphate (diammonium phosphate)

HS code 310530 covers the classification of diammonium hydrogenorthophosphate, commonly known as diammonium phosphate (DAP). This chemical fertilizer is a crucial input for the agricultural industry, playing a vital role in enhancing crop yields and supporting global food production. As one of the most widely used phosphate-based fertilizers, the demand for 310530 products is closely tied to the performance and growth of the agricultural sector worldwide.

Production process

The production of diammonium phosphate (310530) typically involves the reaction of phosphoric acid and ammonia. This process, known as the wet-acid method, results in the formation of a solid diammonium phosphate compound. The raw materials are carefully measured and combined in a controlled environment to ensure the desired chemical composition and quality of the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 310530 products include phosphoric acid, ammonia, and various other chemicals and minerals. Additionally, specialized production equipment, such as reactors, granulators, and drying systems, are essential for the efficient and consistent manufacturing of diammonium phosphate fertilizers.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 310530 is diammonium phosphate, a widely used fertilizer that provides both nitrogen and phosphorus to crops. This fertilizer is a key input for the 310520 Fertilizers, mineral or chemical; phosphatic and 310540 (Fertilizers, mineral or chemical; ammonium dihydrogenorthophosphate (monoammonium phosphate)) industries, as well as the broader 310000 Fertilizers sector.
