AQUA AMMONIA PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
 AQUA AMMONIA, aqueous ammonia and ammonium
Ammonium Hydroxide hydroxide are synonymous terms referring to a solution of ammonia in water. Aqua
 is a high purity solution produced using demineralized water and is suitable for
 applications that require low levels of trace minerals. This product is used in stack
 SDS emission control systems to neutralize sulfur oxides from combustion of sulfur-
 Properties #1130
 containing fuels and as a method of NOx control in both catalytic and non-catalytic
 applications. It is also used for pH control, nutrient for waste disposal systems and
 wood treating. Total Ammonia by weight typical 19% 30%
 Total Ammonia % by weight minimum 18.5 29.4
 APPLICATION RECOMMENDATIONS
 Chloride ppm typical <1 ppm <1 ppm
 • AQUA AMMONIA is used as a source of ammonia and is the preferred form for users
 Sodium ppm typical <1 ppm <1 ppm who need to avoid the storage of the compressed gas, which is considered to be more
 Phosphate ppm typical <1 ppm <1 ppm hazardous. Sulfate ppm typical <1 ppm <1 ppm • AQUA AMMONIA can be injected as a liquid into various process streams and quickly
 Nitrate ppm typical N/A <1 ppm vaporized with the addition of heat into water vapor and gaseous ammonia. It also is
 used as a base to neutralize acidic conditions in various chemical processes.

ping Description
 • AQUA AMMONIA is defined as DOT hazard class 8, corrosive. The
 trailers must be placarded with the corrosive label and also display
 the international transportation number UN2672. • A spill of 1,000 pounds or more is a reportable quantity (RQ) pursuant
 to CERCLA Section 311 of the Clean Water Act. • Consult MSDS #1130 for more specific and comprehensive
