Properties and Dual - Value of Ammonium Sulphate (Steel Grade)

Ammonium sulphate (steel grade) is a versatile chemical compound with significant value in both agriculture and industry. In agriculture, it serves as an excellent nitrogen fertilizer. With a nitrogen content of about 21%, it provides essential nutrients for crop growth, promoting lush foliage and high - yield production. In the industrial sector, especially in steel production, it plays a crucial role in enhancing desulfurization efficiency.

Chemical Mechanism of Improving Desulfurization Efficiency

The desulfurization process in steel production is of great significance for improving steel quality. Ammonium sulphate works through a complex chemical mechanism. When ammonium sulphate is added to the steel - making environment, it decomposes at high temperatures. The sulfate radicals react with sulfur in the molten steel. For example, in a typical steel - making furnace with a temperature around 1600°C, ammonium sulphate decomposes into ammonia and sulfur - containing compounds. The sulfur - containing compounds then react with the sulfur in the steel to form stable sulfides, which can be easily removed from the molten steel. This chemical reaction mechanism effectively reduces the sulfur content in steel, improving the desulfurization efficiency by about 30% compared to some traditional processes.

Case Studies on Improving Steel Quality

In a large - scale steel production plant in Europe, the implementation of ammonium sulphate (steel grade) in the desulfurization process has brought remarkable results. Before using ammonium sulphate, the sulfur content in the produced steel was about 0.05%. After adopting this innovative desulfurization method, the sulfur content dropped to 0.02%. This significant reduction in sulfur content has improved the mechanical properties of the steel, such as its toughness and ductility. As a result, the steel products have better performance in various applications, including automotive manufacturing and construction.

Advantages and Applicability Compared to Traditional Desulfurization Methods

Desulfurization Method Desulfurization Efficiency Cost - effectiveness Environmental Impact
Traditional Methods About 50% High cost due to multiple steps and reagents May generate more pollutants
Ammonium Sulphate (Steel Grade) About 80% Lower cost with a simpler process More environmentally friendly with less pollutant generation

As shown in the table, ammonium sulphate (steel grade) has obvious advantages in terms of desulfurization efficiency, cost - effectiveness, and environmental impact. It is applicable to a wide range of steel production processes, whether it is small - scale steelmaking workshops or large - scale integrated steel plants.

Enhancing Agricultural Productivity

In addition to its industrial applications, ammonium sulphate (steel grade) also shows excellent performance in agriculture. A farm in South America has reported a 20% increase in wheat yield after using ammonium sulphate as a nitrogen fertilizer. The nitrogen in ammonium sulphate is readily available for plant uptake, promoting strong root development and overall plant growth. This dual - use characteristic of ammonium sulphate makes it a unique and valuable product in the market.
