Ammonium Sulfate is an inorganic salt with a lot of commercial uses, it contains 21% nitrogen and 24% sulfur and has a chemical formula of (NH4)2SO4. According to the publisher, the global Ammonium Sulfate market is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecast period. Factors such as its increasing demand in the agriculture industry for making fertilizers for alkaline soils, which provide essential nitrogen for plant growth, and demand as a critical ingredient for making many vaccines in Pharmaceutical Industry, drive the current Ammonium Sulfate market. Furthermore, its uses as a food additive and critical chemical in water treatment processes also drive the Ammonium Sulfate market. However, the availability of substitutes like ammonium nitrate and the high cost of producing ammonium sulfate might restrain its growth in the forecasted years.

Ammonium Sulfate is used to make fertilizers, as an agricultural spray along with insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides, as a protein purifying agent, as a food additive, in the treatment of drinking water and in flame retardant compositions. It serves various grades and end-users like agriculture, pharmaceutical, food, and water treatment industry. The vacuum Absorption technique is of the innovative production techniques developed and is being used by companies to produce ammonium sulfate granules.

The Agriculture Industry is a prime consumer of Ammonium Sulfate globally and is expected to drive the future market. In this industry, ammonium sulfate is primarily used as a fertilizer for alkaline soils. It releases the ammonium ion and forms some acid, which lowers the PH balance of soil while providing the required nitrogen for plant growth. Properties of Ammonium Sulfate, like binding iron and calcium cations present in both water and plant cells, make it particularly effective as a spray adjuvant for water-soluble insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. The increasing population has increased the demand for food resulting in increased production of crops, thus increasing the fertilizers market. Around three-fourth of total Ammonium sulfate produced globally is consumed by the agriculture industry for manufacturing fertilizers. It is highly effective for the crops such as rice, soybean, potatoes, and sour fruits.

Furthermore, Ammonium Sulfate is considered generally recognized as safe (GRAS) therefore making it ideal to be used as a food additive in the food industry. The Food Industry has a significant role in a country's economic growth, and the global food industry has been growing significantly over the last ten years. One of the key drivers of the global food industry is the rising demand for food additives for stabilizing food. Ammonium Sulfate has functions like an acidity regulator in bread and flour. It is a by-product of caprolactam which is used for manufacturing nylon fibers. Therefore, the increase in demand for nylon fiber has increased the supply of Ammonium Sulfate as well. Ammonium Sulfate is also used with chlorine for disinfection and treatment of water. Industrial grade ammonium Sulfate is inefficient in pharmaceutical and food applications, therefore its uses are boosting in the pulp and chipboard industry. The Industrial grade ammonium sulfate is also used in the leather industry as a deliming agent, thus growing the Global Ammonium Sulfate market.
