Global ammonium nitrate market: Use of ammonium nitrate substitutes
Potassium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, and urea are some examples of ammonium nitrate substitutes that can be used in a variety of applications. These chemicals can be used in large amounts and are relatively less harmful than ammonium nitrate to the environment and human beings.
“Potassium nitrate and urea can be used in fertilizers to yield crops. Ammonium sulfate can be used for manufacturing fertilizers and explosives. These alternatives can be used on a long-term basis to keep the environment safe. They can reduce the hazards caused by ammonium nitrate. Increase in the demand for alternatives will adversely affect the growth of the ammonium nitrate market during the forecast period,” says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on agrochemicals and fertilizers.
