 Yara invested USD 263 million in in Sluiskil, Netherlands to replace old prilling unit of Urea with new urea granulator. Annual capacity of plant will be changed from 400,000 tons of urea to 660,000 tons of urea with sulphur. The new plant will be based on technology developed by Yara. Construction will start in 2015, with completion expected in second half 2017.

In parallel with increasing urea production, Sluiskil will reduce UAN production by around 230,000 tons per annum, freeing up nitric acid capacity enabling 130,000 tons per annum of additional CAN production.
 
"In Europe and gradually also in other regions of the world, agricultural soils are lacking sulphur, which is an essential plant nutrient. With this investment we are able to serve a growing demand, helping farmers improve both yield and crop quality while contributing to improved nitrogen efficiency," says Torgeir Kvidal, President and Chief Executive Officer of Yara International ASA.
