Industrial Chemicals
Dyno Nobel produces nitric acid in a variety of strengths as well as urea and ammonia based fertilizers.
NITRIC ACID is created by oxidizing anhydrous ammonia over a platinum catalyst at extreme temperatures. The resultant gases, nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide, or NOx, are cooled and absorbed into demineralized water. Apart from the hydrogen and nitrate ions, NITRIC ACID will not contain any ions unless they were present in the water source used for absorbing the acid gas or in the compressed air used in the process. The product acid is clear and colorless to slightly yellow. The common yellow discoloration in NITRIC ACID is directly proportional to the level of oxides of nitrogen dissolved in the solution. This is HNO2 or nitrous acid. It can be minimized using various techniques from process air bleaching to inert chemical addition. The acid is miscible with water in all portions accompanied with a rise in temperature.

NITRIC ACID is created by oxidizing anhydrous ammonia over a platinum catalyst at extreme temperatures. The resultant gases, nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide, or NOx, are cooled and absorbed into dimineralized water. Apart from the hydronium and nitrate ions, the NITRIC ACID will not contain any ions unless they were present in the water source used for absorbing the acid gas or in the compressed air used in the process. The product acid is clear and colorless to slightly yellow. The common yellow discoloration in NITRIC ACID is directly proportional to the level of oxides of nitrogen dissolved in the solution (HNO2 or nitrous acid). The acid is miscible with water in all proportions accompanied with a rise in temperature.
