Storage Conditions for fertilisers and Chemical Products

Maintaining optimal humidity levels is crucial for preserving mineral fertilisers and chemical plant protection products. These materials are often composed of fine particles that can pose health risks to personnel, damage warehouse structures, and lead to product deterioration.

During packaging and loading, small particles accumulate on surfaces in the form of dust. In high humidity environments, these particles absorb moisture, creating sticky deposits that penetrate construction materials and accelerate corrosion. The presence of salts in fertilisers further increases structural degradation, particularly in areas exposed to repeated wetting and drying cycles.

Additionally, hygroscopic fertilisers absorb moisture from the air, causing them to clump, stick together, and lose their effectiveness.

Challenges Caused by Uncontrolled Humidity

Without proper humidity control, the following issues arise:

  • Condensation buildup on the inner walls and ceilings of storage facilities
  • Clumping and hardening of hygroscopic fertilisers, making them difficult to use
  • Some chemical compounds becoming unstable or unsafe for further application
  • Increased risk of explosion when storing nitrate-based fertilisers
  • Mildew and bacterial growth, contaminating stored products
  • Corrosion of metal surfaces, leading to structural damage
  • Accelerated deterioration of warehouse buildings and equipment

The most effective solution is to remove excess moisture using desiccant dehumidification.
