The nitrogen fertilizer plant will use patented technology for the main processing units. It will be one of the world’s first full-scale zero-carbon nitrogen plants using only air, water and zero-carbon electricity as raw materials.
It will have a production capacity of 650 thousand tons of calcium ammonium nitrate per year. The plant will have the following units: ammonia, nitric acid, ammonium nitrate, calcium ammonium nitrate, calcium nitrate, electrolyzers and air separation.
The plant will be the first of a series that Atlas Agro plans to build in several regions of the world.
