Can be decomposed by hot water, soluble in glycerol (lOmL), insoluble in ethanol, acetone. Easy sublimation.
after the industrial ammonium bicarbonate is added to the appropriate amount of water, ammonia gas is slowly introduced. The mixture was heated to 40-50 °c and stirred until no longer dissolved. Add a small amount of activated carbon, in 40~50 Deg C for a certain time. The solution was filtered, cooled, and carbon dioxide was passed through. Then by Suction filtration crystallization, namely pure ammonium bicarbonate. It can also be prepared by the process of saturated crystallization and the like by passing carbon dioxide into ammonia water.

nitrogen fertilizer | ammonium bicarbonate is a nitrogen-containing chemical fertilizer, also known as acid ammonium carbonate or ammonium bicarbonate, abbreviated as ammonium bicarbonate, commonly known as gas fertilizer. White powdery or lumpy crystal, slightly ammonia odor, 1.58 relative density, melting point 107.5 ℃ (rapid heat). Easily soluble in water, the aqueous solution is alkaline, weakly alkaline, insoluble in ethanol and acetone. Easy to absorb moisture and agglomerate. The chemical properties are unstable. It slowly decomposes into carbon dioxide, ammonia and water at room temperature. The decomposition rate accelerates with the increase of temperature and humidity. At the end of the 50s, Chinese chemical expert Hou Debang successfully developed a new process for the production of ammonium bicarbonate by the combined carbon method in order to solve the urgent need of nitrogen fertilizer in his country, combining the production of ammonium bicarbonate with the production of synthetic ammonia, thus reducing energy consumption, simplifying the process, reducing investment, and enabling the rapid development of ammonium bicarbonate production. Until the 1980s, ammonium bicarbonate was still the main variety of nitrogen fertilizer in China. The nitrogen content of commercial ammonium bicarbonate is 17%. Ammonium bicarbonate is mainly used as a fertilizer. After being applied to the soil, the ammonium ion (NH4) in ammonium bicarbonate can be adsorbed by the soil colloid or fixed by the lattice or converted into nitrate nitrogen. After being absorbed by plants, no side components remain in the soil. It has little effect on the soil pH value. It is suitable for various soils and crops. It does not leave harmful substances on the soil and crops. It is a quick-acting nitrogen fertilizer and can be used for a long time. In order to prevent ammonia volatilization from losing fertilizer efficiency and burning crop stems and leaves, deep application and soil cover can be used. Can be used as base fertilizer, top dressing, not suitable for seed fertilizer. When applying top dressing, ammonium bicarbonate should be prevented from falling on the leaf surface of the plant to avoid ammonia damage. The disadvantage of ammonium bicarbonate as a fertilizer lies in its chemical instability. After adding a crystallization modifier, the crystallization of ammonium bicarbonate increases and the water content decreases, which reduces the phenomenon of easy decomposition and caking. Ammonium bicarbonate is one of the industrial products of nitrogen fertilizer. It is the main variety of small nitrogen fertilizer plants in China. It is one of the coke oven gas purification products in coking plants. The coking plant uses concentrated ammonia water as raw material and reacts with carbon dioxide to generate ammonium bicarbonate crystals, which are filtered by centrifugation to obtain ammonium bicarbonate products. ammonium bicarbonate is easy to decompose. it should be packed with plastic film, plastic bag or 3-layer kraft paper bag. they should be sealed separately and stored in a cool, low-temperature, dry and ventilated warehouse to prevent moisture absorption, rain and sun exposure. |

production method | compressed carbon dioxide is passed into concentrated ammonia water, placed under pressure of carbon dioxide, cooled at the same time, crystallized, centrifuged and dehydrated. Dissolve it in water during refining, add ethanol, and recrystallize it. After the ammonia gas is absorbed with water by the carbonization method, it is carbonized with carbon dioxide, and then separated and dried to obtain ammonium bicarbonate. Its NH3 CO2 H2O → NH4HCO3 CO2 gas from lime kiln and purified by washing is saturated with ammonia water, and then centrifuged and dried by hot air to obtain the finished product.
