Nitric acid is a cornerstone of the global fertilizer industry, with over 80% of production used to create ammonium nitrate and UAN (urea ammonium nitrate). It is also a critical intermediate for producing explosives, specialty chemicals, and advanced fuel components.
The challenge for producers today lies in building or revamping plants that meet stringent environmental regulations, optimize energy recovery, and reduce both emissions and total cost of ownership, all while maintaining operational safety and reliability.
Industrial Applications of Nitric Acid
Nitric acid serves both agriculture and industry as a vital input for:
