Potassium Nitrate Industry Report 2021 Segmented in Agriculture, General, Pharmaceutical and Food industry

Global Potassium Nitrate Market is segmented by end users as Agriculture, General industries, Pharmaceutical industry, and Food industry. Potassium nitrate is basically a chemical compound that possesses the chemical formula of KNO3. It normally appears as a mineral niter and it is a natural solid source of nitrogen. It is said to be a crystalline solid possessing the color of white and dirty gray. Its prominent properties may include water solubility, and non-combustibility.
This chemical compound is among several nitrogen-containing compounds that are jointly called as saltpeter or saltpetre.

The most significant uses of potassium nitrate encompass in fertilizers, tree stump elimination, rocket propellants and fireworks. It is said to be one of the most important element of gunpowder (blackpowder). Since the middle Ages, it has been employed as a food preservative.

The potassium nitrate is usually formed with the assistance of a double decomposition reaction of sodium nitrate and potassium chloride. It has been found that if large amount of the compound is mixed up in the fire, it may give rise to explosion. There are chances of exploding under extended exposure to heat or fire. Prominent factors that are playing a key role in the growth of the potassium nitrate market include augmented world population, raised level of per capita income, and huge demand for high-quality foods.

The major challenges that the market is currently facing include loss of soil fertility and the arable land cover. Over a period, the chemical components in the fertilizers and pesticides break down and contaminate the soil. This reduces the fertility of the soil. For instance, in China and India, the excessive usage of fertilizer is resulting in deterioration of soil health, resulting in a fall in arable Land .Among all, the agricultural segment is accounting for the largest market share and it is anticipated that it will gain a huge momentum in the next couple of years. As it is known that potassium is the most widely employed fertilizer nutrient.

Plus, it aids in enhancing the water retention, nutrient value, color, texture, yield, and disease resistance of crops. Potassium Nitrate Market is segmented on the basis of raw material as potassium chloride, sodium nitrate, and ammonium nitrate. Among all, potassium chloride is the extensively used raw material as compared to others. Potassium Nitrate industry is segmented on the basis of geography as North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Rest of the World.
As far as the geography is concerned, Asia Pacific is currently dominating the potassium nitrate market, the reason being augmented demand for nitrogen-based fertilizers in the particular region. Countries including China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Vietnam are considered to be the largest markets for these fertilizers. The key players operating in the Potassium Nitrate Market include Arab Fertilizers and Chemicals, Haifa, K+S AG, GFS Chemicals, Migao, SQM, Uralchem, Yara Chemicals, Agrium, Barium and Chemicals, ICL, Potash Corp, and Qinghai Salt Lake
