Aqueous Ammonia — Water-Treatment Niche (Sub-1,000 MT)
For Athi Water, Coast Water Works and NEMA-licensed industrial users needing sub-1,000 MT parcels, Sarpah introduces aqueous ammonia (Grade B, GOST 9-92). Aqueous ammonia is not a bulk fertilizer-channel flow at Mombasa — those parcels do not exist.
Where aqueous ammonia does have a real Kenyan demand profile is in the water-treatment segment — pH adjustment, chloramine formation in municipal water systems, denitrification at wastewater plants. The buyer universe is narrow and the parcel sizes small.
