Potassium Sulfate Production Project Indicator Plan

1. Product Technical Indicators:

① Technical Indicators for Agricultural Potassium Sulfate (GB20406-2017)

Appearance: Colorless or white crystals or powder.

Item  Powder Crystalline Granular
 Premium Grade  First Grade  Qualified Grade  First Grade  Qualified Grade
Water-soluble potassium oxide (K2O) mass fraction % ≥  52  50  45  50  45
Sulfur (S) mass fraction % ≥  17.0  16.0  15.0  16.0  15.0
Chloride ion (Cl¯) mass fraction % ≤  1.5  2.0  2.0  1.5  2.0
Moisture a (H2O) mass fraction % ≤  1.0  1.5  2.0  1.5  2.5
Free acid (calculated as H2SO4) mass fraction % ≤  1.0  1.5  2.0  2.0  2.0
Particle sizeb (particle size 1.00mm-4.75mm or 3.35mm-5.60mm) % ≥  _  _  _  90  90

Potassium sulfate fertilizer implements first-grade standard; daily production per furnace is 28-30 tons of potassium sulfate.

② Technical Indicators for By-product Hydrochloric Acid (HG/T3783-2005)

Item  Specification    
 I  II  III
 Indicator    
Total acidity (calculated as HCl) % ≥  31.0  20.0  10.0
Heavy metals (calculated as Pb) % ≤  0.005    
Note: Manufacturers should provide information on possible main impurities as required by users, and impurity content data when necessary.

By-product hydrochloric acid implements first-grade standard.
