The ammonia market is expanding due to rising fertilizer demand and its use in various industries. Key regions include Asia Pacific and Europe.
Ammonia (NH3) is a compound composed of one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms. It is usually found as a gas. It is colorless, highly soluble in water, and has a pungent odor. Ammonia is essential for many biological processes and serves as a precursor for amino acid and nucleotide synthesis. Ammonia is produced naturally through the breakdown of organic waste matter in the environment. It is used in fertilizer, chemical, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, mining, fiber, and plastics industries. The feedstock used for ammonia production are natural gas and fuel oil.
Increasing demand for fertilizers in the agriculture sector is the major driving factor for the growth of global ammonia market across owing to increasing production capacity of ammonia across the globe this factor driving the market. For instance, according to the International Fertilizer Industry Association (IFA), ammonium production on the basis of region North America and South Asia accounted for 70% of overall capacity growth in forecast period (2017-2021).
