Les Salines de Tataouine Company met August 25, 2011 decided to launch the construction of a production unit of 100 000 tonnes of sodium sulphate (Na2SO4), a product used mainly in the manufacture of powder detergent, through a 100% subsidiary, which will operate under the mining code.
Read MoreUses :
The largest use of MonoAmmonium Pphosphate by weight is in agriculture, as an ingredient of fertilizers. It supplies soil with the elements nitrogen and phosphorus in a form usable by plants.
Read MoreThe Société Chimique ALKIMIA, has been founded on September 26th, 1972 and started production in 1976 with a design capacity of 30 000 tons per year (tpy) of technical Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP; Na5P3O10).
After having increased the production capacity of sodium tripolyphosphate to 140,000 tpa and renovated its facilities, the Société Chimique ALKIMIA has now reached a stage of development which allows it to: produce and market other chemicalsThus, it has been decided in Novembre 2009 to create ALKIMIA-Packaging Ltd subsidiary at 100%, for packaging and marketing of soda ash (Na2CO3) in Tunisia and North Africa.

Also, Les Salines de Tataouine Ltd, subsidiary at 100%, was created in August 2011 for extraction, production and marketing of sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) in Tunisia, North Africa and Europ. See attached technical data sheet
The STPP powder is mainly used in the preparation of detergent slurry. Molecular structure of STPP is presented in two different forms called phase 1 and phase 2. The rate of composition of the STPP in phase 1 and phase 2 gives various rate of hydration.
In general, for each technique of slurry preparation, there is a specific quality of STPP.
For modern installations of detergent, with fast and powerful mixers, the stpp high rate of hydration is recommended.
It permits reduction time in the preparation of the slurry, saving energy in the heating and the drying of the slurry and a better quality of detergent powder.
STPP Granular:
The STPP with low or middle rate of hydration is recommended; this prevents the formation of lumps during the slurry preparation, but requires a slower preparation time and an extra energy consumption.
