QYResearch: The production of Ammonium Sulphate increased from 17892 K MT in 2011 to 25136 K MT in 2016
Ammonium sulfate is an inorganic chemical compound with the chemical formula (NH4)2SO4. It contains 21 percent nitrogen in the form of ammonium ions and 24 percent sulfur as sulfate ions. The purified material takes the form of white granules or crystals. It is commonly used as a fertilizer and as an agricultural spray adjuvant for water soluble pesticides. It is also used in the preparation of other ammonium salts.
Ammonium Sulphate is mainly produced from coke-oven gas production route and caprolactam by-product production route. The share of coke-oven gas production route is decreasing in the recent years owing to government control, especially in China. Caprolactam by-product production route is the main production technology and accounted for 61.30% share in 2016. Ammonium Sulphate are often applied in fertilizer, industrial use and food additive, of which fertilizer occupies the largest share.
According to QYResearch, The production of Ammonium Sulphate increased from 17892 K MT in 2011 to 25136 K MT in 2016, with a CARG of 7.04 %. The manufacturers are concentrated in China, USA and Europe. BASF is the largest manufacturer in the global market, which production reached 1641 K MT in 2016. China is the largest production region in the world, which occupied 34.28% share in 2016. Some producers build new plants in the recent years and the CARG reached 19.80% from 2011 to 2016.
The manufacture shares of North America, Europe, Southeast Asia and India were 15.15%, 29.54%, 4.35% and 2.94% in 2016.
The consumption shares of North America, Europe, China, Southeast Asia and India were 11.36%, 16.76%, 10.73%, 23.39% and 4.19%. Southeast Asia is the main import region, which has few manufacturers and China is the main export region.
The price of Ammonium Sulphate kept decreasing in 2016 owing to raw material price and market competition. The global average price and profit margin was at about 144 USD/MT and 11.11% in 2016.
The world Ammonium Sulphate production market will still have a certain amount of growth owing to the increasing of demand. The market in developed countries will have some growth and the market in developing countries will have a faster growth rate. The world Ammonium Sulphate production will increase at a growth rate of about 4.6 %. The main consumption region will be in North America, Europe, China and Southeast Asia.
