Falco AC® is a safe and high purity magnesium hydroxide powder produced from exceptionally selected brucite mineral by strictly controlled crushing and sieving.
The product is used as a chemical anti-caking agent for the production of ammonium nitrate and complex fertilizers.
Falco AC® in the form of a powder is added directly to the ammonium nitrate granules during production, which distinguishes it from organic anti-caking agents.
In the production of complex fertilizers, Falco AC® considerably improves color, boosts granule strength, and optimizes the granulometric composition while reducing caking and porosity.
Falco AC® for complex fertilizers
Falco AC® can be used in complex fertilizers as an anticaking agent and source of vital magnesium for the crops as it is a central atom in the chlorophyll molecule responsible for photosynthesize.
For NPK
- Increase of granules strength up to 30%
- Increase of magnesium in fertilizer
- Reduction of caking of fertilizers
- Reduction of total production cost of fertilizer in average 5 euro per ton
For NPS
- Elimination of the decrease in the granules strength of NPS
For DAP
- Increase in durability in the production of DAP
- Reduction of caking and porosity in the production of DAP
For MAP
- Reduction of the content of fluorine and silica in the production of MAP
- Reduction of caking in the production of MAP
- Increase in durability in the production of MAP
Falco AC® for ammonium nitrate
Falco AC® is used to prepare a solution of Mg(NO3)2, which is obtained in reactors based on diluted nitric acid with a concentration of 30–35 %. Then the solution of magnesium nitrate is added to a solution of ammonium nitrate.
- High concentration of magnesium
- Absence of CO2 emissions during dissolution
- Controlled process conditions
- White ammonium nitrate granules
- No foaming
- Total magnesium replacement (acid conditions)
- Small amount of waste
- No deposits on the walls of heat exchangers
