BLUE BELL, Pa. — Linde Engineering North America (LENA) is building an ammonia plant for J.R. Simplot Co. adjacent to Simplot’s existing phosphate fertilizer complex in Rock Springs, Wyoming. The 600-tons-per-day plant will supply both the Rock Springs and Pocatello, Idaho, phosphate fertilizer production locations while providing the capacity to meet Simplot’s next phase of anticipated phosphate expansion plans at Rock Springs. The new plant will take approximately two years to complete. This is LENA’s third ammonia project in the past two years.
“This is Linde’s first North American implementation of our ammonia process, and we are pleased to work with Simplot to bring their global vision to fruition here in the U.S.,” said Ken Lamb, director of LENA’s hydrogen and syngas business unit for North America.
