Anhydrous Ammonia

Anhydrous ammonia is a chemical compound made of nitrogen and hydrogen, with no water in it. It’s a colorless, pungent gas used mainly in agriculture as a fertilizer to promote plant growth. It can also be found in industrial processes, such as manufacturing plastics and explosives. Because it is stored as a compressed gas or liquid under high pressure, it requires careful handling and safety precautions, as it can be harmful or irritating to the skin, eyes, and lungs. When used properly, anhydrous ammonia plays a vital role in supporting food production and industry.
