Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but I see 55,000 gallons at 0.5%,
55,000 gal x 8.34 #/gal x .005 = 2293.5 pound of N.
But really none of this is meaningful until someone can measure exactly what's going on in the final product. What's the form of N, it seems like it has to be nitric acid, but most importantly what's the concentration, and how consistent is it. It doesn't seem like these should be hard to figure out for a lab. And the fact they are multiple years into this and don't have that info, gives me serious pause.
Yep, thanks. Should be 500-600 ppm, not 0.5%. That matches closer to the test strip result in the other thread too.
The only way I see for the final product to be significantly different from this is if they've created a new process or had some substantial improvement, otherwise we've known how this works for 120+ years and just haven't done it because it isn't economically feasible.
