In India there are many companies manufacturing anhydrous
ammonia and largest manufacturing capacity of anhydrous
ammonia is by Krishak Bharati Cooperative Limited (KRIBHCO),
Surat Gujarat.
Ammonia
is toxic gas, but can be dissolved easily in water. At
certain density in air (i.e. 15% to 28%), it will form
flammable and explosive mixture. Proper care and safety
procedures should be taken to control the leak of ammonia.
Although ammonia itself is toxic, the exhaust gases
from the combustion of ammonia and oxygen are not.
It is extremely important to follow proper handling and
safety procedures when working with Anhydrous Ammonia. |
