crucial agreements at the Mohamed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) in Benguerir,
Morocco.
The agreements are designed to create a clear path for the second phase of the
Presidential Fertiliser Initiate as well as the creation and operationalisation of a
Multipurpose Industrial Platform (MPI) in Nigeria.
The parties to the agreement included the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation
(NNPC), Nigerian Content Development & Monitoring Board (NCDMB), GACN (Gas
Aggregation Company Nigeria Limited), Akwa Ibom State Government, the Fertilizer
Producers & Suppliers Association of Nigeria (FEPSAN) and Mobil Producing Nigeria

Silver Fern Farms has been fined $337,000 over an ammonia leak at its Hāwera plant that was potentially lethal to its staff, emergency services personnel and nearby residents.
The February 2020 leak is also being described as likely the worst single-point freshwater pollution event in terms of fish killed in New Zealand history.
In a departure from conventional practice, proceedings began today with a karakia from a Ngāti Ruanui kaumātua.
The iwi is manu whenua of the Tawhiti Stream, which bore the brunt of the ammonia spill.
Global Fertilizer Market is going to worth more than US$ 93.9 Billion by 2027. by Segments (Ammonia, Phosphorus, and Potassium), Region, Company Analysis & Forecast.
Marietta, Georgia, United States., February 10, 2021 - /PressReleasePoint/ - The need for fertilization is increasing globally due to the rising global population. Fertilizers play a significant role in plants growth, which provides nutrients to the soil, leading to production efficiency and more optimum food production. The primary nutrients for plant growth are ammonia, phosphorus, and potassium, and these should be in the right quantity for healthy crops. According to Renub Research Analysis,
US$ 93.9 Billion by 2027.
Nitrogen is essential in developing plants because it forms proteins that help to build tissues present in plants. In comparison, phosphorus helps develop the plant through photosynthesis purpose, which converts sunlight to energy. Potassium is useful for carbohydrate and starch synthesis. As per

Thermochemical processes such as gasification, reforming and pyrolysis can convert hydrocarbon-rich solid wastes to hydrogen. These thermochemical processes yield syngas which can be further processed to hydrogen, a clean, emission-free energy vector. The thermochemical processes that yield syngas differ from waste incineration, which takes place in an excess of oxygen to generate steam, carbon dioxide and ash.
Thermochemical processing of waste does produce some carbon dioxide, but the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) regards processing of the biogenic fraction of waste as carbon dioxide neutral. Animal carcasses, scrap wood, waste vegetable oils and post-consumer wastepaper meet this definition.
