Two new fertilizer plants are set to open in the country’s eastern region. Swiss engineering company Casale has announced a contract with South Korean Daewoo Engineering & Construction Co. to develop design documentation for the plants, the country’s MIC reported.
The project, commissioned by the Turkmenchemistry State Concern, will significantly expand Casale’s presence in the Central Asian fertilizer sector. The new plants will specialize in the production of granular ammonium sulfate (GA) and granular single superphosphate (GSSP).
Once completed, the complex will produce 350,000 metric tons of GSSP per year using Casale’s CULTIVA-SPhos technology and 100,000 metric tons of GA per year using the CULTIVA-PIPEX system. These fertilizers are widely used in agriculture to improve soil quality and increase crop yields.
Casale, a company with a century of history and more than 400 professionals, confirms its role as a leading supplier of technological and engineering solutions for the chemical industry worldwide. This project will not only strengthen Casale’s international presence, but will also contribute to the sustainable development of agriculture in the region.
