Description
English: The world's largest potash fertilizer production base in the size 10 to 21 km is built in the former Lake Lop Nur, Xinjiang, China. The first phase of the project which has an annual capacity of 1.2 million tons was put into operation on Dec.18, 2008. The second phase with an annual capacity of 1.7 million tons has been launched 2009 and will be operational in 2014. The 3 million program will make Lop Nor the largest potash fertilizer production base in the world. The Project of Development and Utilization of Sylvite Resources in Lop Nur region employs the technique of producing potassium sulphate through magnesium sulfate subtype brine, which filled a technological gas of this kind and made China among the fewer countries that could produce potassium sulphate from brine directly taken from salt lake. The satellite picture is taken 2009-10-12. For more informatiom see here, here and here.
Deutsch: Im Seebecken Lop Nor in Xinjiang, in China befindet sich dieses 2008 fertiggestellte 21 km lange und 10 km breite Kaliumchloridwerk, in dem Pottasche-Dünger hergestellt wird. Das Seebecken Lop Nor ist eine sedimentäre Salzlagerstätte von sylvinitischem Kalisalz für die Herstellung von Pottasche und enthält das größte Vorkommen von Sylvin in China. Es verfügt über 240 Millionen Tonnen Kaliumchlorid und hat insgesamt geschätzte Reserven von 500 Millionen Tonnen Kalisalz. Die bestätigten Vorkommen befinden sich in einem Gebiet, das sich 60,5 km von Nord nach Süd und 32,5 km von Ost nach West mit einer Gesamtfläche von 1.710 km² erstreckt. Die Erschließung eines Kaliumchlorid-Feldes durch die Lop Nur Sylvite Science and Technology Development Co. Ltd auf einer Fläche von 21,6km² und der Bau der Pilotanlage wurden bis 2003 fertiggestellt. Ein Kaliumchloridwerk konnte bereits in seiner Testphase rund 1.000 Tonnen hochwertigen Kaliumsulfats erzeugen. Bis Ende 2003 belief sich der Ausstoß auf 5.000 Tonnen Kaliumsulfat. Die Pilotanlage wurde bis Dezember 2008 nach Süden hin zur jährlichen Herstellung von 1,2 Millionen Tonnen Pottasche-Dünger vergrößert. Das Werk soll bis zum Jahr 2014 erneut erheblich erweitert werden, damit dann jährlich insgesamt 3 Millionen Tonnen Pottasche-Dünger hergestellt werden können. Seit 2006 gibt es einen Highway, der die Stadt Hami mit dem Werksgelände verbindet. Im Juni 2009 begann zusätzlich der Bau einer 360 Kilometer langen Eisenbahnstrecke von Hami zu diesem Werksgelände. Die Satellitenaufnahme wurde am 12. Oktober 2009 aufgenommen.
