The ammonium thiosulfate industry size was expected to be worth close to USD 345.4 million in 2022. By 2033, the same market is anticipated to have generated USD 719.6 million, with a CAGR of 6.9% from 2023 to 2033. Ammonium thiosulfate inhibits growth at a high agronomic rate of 250–5000 mg/kg soil, increasing the soil’s fertility. It reduces nitrification, the process by which ammonium is transformed into nitrate, which might lessen nitrate loss to the atmosphere and water.
The product yields rise by 9% to 11% whenever ammonium thiosulfate is applied to the soil, and the soil’s effectiveness is increased. According to the United Nations’ demographic agreement, the world’s population will expand by 40% to 9.15 billion people in 2050, necessitating a 70% increase in global food production. The need for nitrogen as well as phosphate-based fertilizers is anticipated to increase due to the rising demand for agricultural production worldwide. It is anticipated that there will be a large rise in demand for ammonium thiosulfate due to the growing need for additional nutrients within the soil.
Thin layers of cadmium sulfide are formed when ammonium thiosulfate is added as a supply of sulfur for applications in electronics. It is applied to the processing of copper-gold ores in order to extract gold. It is also a component of photographic fixers, making it a rapid fixer that acts faster than fixers containing sodium thiosulfate. Ammonium thiosulfate has experienced a marked rise in demand from a variety of end-use sectors due to its expanding use in several applications, including agrochemicals, medicines, agriculture, water treatment, and the mining industry, among others.
