Potassium Chlorate Production
Potassium Chlorate Operating Costs & Plant Construction Costs
This report presents the economics of Potassium Chlorate production from potassium chloride in the United States. In this process, potassium chloride is electrolyzed for the direct production of potassium chlorate.
The report provides a comprehensive study of Potassium Chlorate production and related Potassium Chlorate production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Potassium Chlorate production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Potassium Chlorate plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Potassium Chlorate plant operating costs (Opex).
The Potassium Chlorate production process description includes a block flow diagram (BFD), an overview of the industrial site installations, detailing both the process unit and the necessary infrastructure, process consumption figures and comprehensive process flow diagrams (PFD). The Potassium Chlorate plant capital cost analysis breaks down the Capex by plant cost (i.e., ISBL, OSBL and Contingency); owner's cost; working capital; and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up. The Potassium Chlorate plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.

Product
Potassium Chlorate. Potassium Chlorate is an inorganic chemical with the molecular formula KClO3. It is a strong oxidizing agent, so it mus be carefully handled. After sodium chlorate, it is the chlorate most commonly in industrial use, with a range of applications, such as the manufacture of explosives, fireworks and matches, as well as in printing and dyeing cotton, etc.
Raw Material
Potassium Chloride. Potassium Chloride is a key mineral used primarily as a fertilizer in agriculture due to its potassium content. It also finds use in the chemical industry and in medical treatments for electrolyte balance. Potassium chloride is mined from underground deposits or extracted from brine and is stored as crystals. Its role in plant nutrition and industrial applications makes it highly demanded.

NPK Fertilizer Production (Phosphonitric Process)
This report presents the economics of a typical phosphonitric process for NPK Fertilizer production in the United States from rock phosphate, phosphoric acid, ammonia, and nitric acid. Initially, rock phosphate is digested with nitric acid and phosphoric acid. The NP solution generated is then neutralized with gaseous ammonia. To produce NPK potassium chloride or sulfate is finally admixed. The product formulation is 15-15-15 (15% N, 15% P2O5, 15% K2O).
