Beyond fertilizers, liquid ammonia is also used in refrigeration systems as a coolant, in the metal industry (to create protective atmospheres), and in the plastics industry.

Ammonia
Ammonia (NH3) is a colorless gas with a pungent odor that is an important component in fertilizers for agriculture such as ammonium nitrate, urea and composite fertilizers. Comprised of a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen, applying just 100kg of ammonia to a hectare of soil will increase wheat yield by 8-10% and corn yield by 60%. Nord Imperial carries out extensive work in research and development in order to improve the application of fertilizers. An example of our dedication to constantly contine cultivating our methods include, but are not limited to, investing in a number of U.S. units, coordinating the production of alternatives, improving the applicationof fertilizers, such as liquid ammonia and ammonia water, which are used as a standalone fertilizers.
Carbonic acid
Carbonic acid has found an extensive application in the oil industry, in mechanical engineering, shipbuilding, automobile construction and medicine. The product is also widely used in the food industry in the productoin of sugar, carbonated beverages, cocktails and beer. In its solid form, carbon dioxide is called ‘dry ice’, a product in high demand in the food processing industry for its ability to significantly increase the storage life of meat, dairy products, fruit and vegetables.
Urea
Urea (CH4N2O) is a chemical compound often used as a highly concentrated nitrogen fertilizer. Also called carbamide, urea has a wide range of uses beyond fertilizers including: as an effective protein additive to animal fodder, as a component in the production of artificial resins, plastics, adhesives, packs and in the refining of petroleum products, as well as other uses in the wood, fabric, food, and pharmaceutical industries.
Nord Imperial maintains its competitive edge in the production of urea through its commitment to quality, an achievement confirmed by numerous awards. Our dedicated laboratory applies strict quality control to our urea products, including post-completion treatment with formaldehyde condensate to preserve quality during shipping to the final customer.
Basalt fiber and film
We began producing high-strength basalt fiber in order to serve our own need for a thermal insulation material that was better quality and more environmentally friendly than fiberglass, without sacrificing the crucial non-flamable property. We use our basalt fiber throughout our industrial facilities, and it is also commonly used to insulate residential and other buildings.
We also produce several different types of polyethylene film in the same workshop, primarily for corporate uses such as shrink film for packing bricks and maufacturing urea packing bags.
Urea Formaldehyde Concentrate
Urea Formaldehyde Concentrate (CH2-N-CO-N-CH2) is a major scientific achievement which Nord Imperial patented in 2004. Today, Nord Imperial produces this clear, viscous liquid in two grades: one designed for processing granular nitrogen fertilizers; the other used by our wholly-owned sister company, Sheksninsky wood panel plant, in the production of high quality resin.
During the all-Russian exhibition ChemExpo 2008, organized by the Russian Ministry of Industry, Science and Technology, Nord Imperial was awarded for its high quality products, including praise for its UFC (and methanol) production.
Ceramic Production
Given that high quality clay deposits lie, literally, right under our workers’ feet, it’s not surprising that the earliest construction materials produced in our area were bricks. We purchased our Brick Factory from the Spanish company Agema, which provided assistance in optimising the production of ceramic tiles and frit. Today, the 60 million bricks Nord Imperial produces each year are highly sought after, ranked amongst the Top 100 Goods in Russia, and covered by a 70 year guarantee.
We use a large part of the construction materials we produce for our own facilities, but we also supply many other major industrial, social and residential projects.
Refractory materials and frit
A refractory is a heat-resitant material that retains its strength at high temperatures and is often used for lining furnaces, reactors and other processing units. Our refractory materials workshop specializes in repairing ammonia and urea units and industrial ceramic furnaces with refractory componentry. The workshop was established in cooperation with Austrian firm Plibrico, which supplies raw materials to produce dry concentrate compounds and precast shaped products.
The workshop also manufactures frit, the most expensive component in glazed tile production. We make enough frit to satisfy not only our internal demands, but also to supply glazed tile production plants across the country.
