About Ammonium Sulfate

Ammonium sulfate is an inorganic salt that is widely used in fertilizers, providing nitrogen and sulfur for the healthy growth of crops. Ammonium sulfate consists of 21% nitrogen and 24% sulfur. The advantage of using ammonium sulfate is that it releases nitrogen slowly, which is beneficial for crop growth. The chemical method that is popularly used for the preparation of ammonium sulfate involves the reaction of ammonia with sulfuric acid in a reactor. Another method of preparing ammonium sulfate involves the reaction of gypsum with ammonium carbonate, resulting in ammonium sulfate and calcium carbonate as the by-product. Ammonium sulfate is also formed as a by-product during the preparation of caprolactam.
