N, P, K OVERVIEW

Most Potash is Produced from Conventional


Underground Mines
Potassium plays an important role in the growth and development of plants by activating
enzymes, enhancing photosynthesis, aiding nitrogen uptake as well as increasing test weights
and helping the plant withstand stress.

Potassium chloride (KCl), commonly called potash, is mined from ore deposits located deep
underground or extracted from salt lakes or seas. Conventional underground mines account for
nearly 80 percent of global potassium chloride capacity, and underground solution mines for
about 6 percent. The remainder is obtained by harvesting natural brines from potassium-rich
water bodies, typically using solar evaporation.

Potash is sold into the agricultural market primarily as solid granular and standard products.
Granular product has a larger and more uniformly-shaped particle that can be easily blended with
solid nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers; it is typically used in more advanced agricultural markets
such as the US and Brazil. Standard product is more commonly used in major Asian markets.
POTASH

Nitrogen is Used in Many Forms


Nitrogen (N) is required by every living cell and is part of the genetic blueprints RNA and
DNA. It is a fundamental building block of plant proteins that improve crop yield and quality.
Nitrogen is also essential for proper animal nutrition and maturation.

Synthesized from hydrogen sources (primarily natural gas or coal), steam and nitrogen
from the air, ammonia (NH3) is a concentrated source of nitrogen and the basic feedstock
for all upgraded nitrogen products. It is also used to make industrial products and as a direct-
application fertilizer.

The most commonly used nitrogen fertilizer is urea, which is also the feedstock for industrial
products such as plastics, resins, adhesives and increasingly for emissions control. Liquid
forms of urea and ammonium nitrate are combined into UAN solution, which is used in
agriculture. Ammonium nitrate is made by combining ammonia with nitric acid and has
both industrial and agricultural uses.

NITROGEN

How Phosphate Fertilizers are Produced


Phosphate (P) is the major source of phosphorus, the energizer of plant production.
It is crucial to key energy reactions in plants (such as photosynthesis), speeding maturity
and reproduction, and increasing yield. In animals, phosphate is a critical component in
biochemical reactions essential to muscle contraction and normal body growth,
maintenance and repair. Phosphate is also used in industrial products such as soft
drinks, food products and metal treatment.

Phosphate rock is mined from underground ore deposits and dissolved in a mixture of
phosphoric and sulfuric acids. This results in production of additional phosphoric acid,
which is the feedstock for most fertilizer, industrial and feed phosphate products.

This phosphoric acid can be combined with ammonia and granulated to produce the
solid fertilizers DAP and MAP, evaporated to produce merchant-grade phosphoric acid
(MGA), or further evaporated to produce superphosphoric acid (SPA), which is then
converted into liquid fertilizer.
