2. What is it?
Humic acid is a group of organic
compounds formed by the
association of high-molecular mass
substances from microbiological,
vegetative and animal origin.
They are organic macromolecules
with multiple properties and high
structural complexity.
They exist abundantly in soil,
natural water, lignite and
aquatic environments. http://primaryinfo.com/agro-

9. How it is made?
Coal is ground and filtered through 60 mesh sieve.
It is treated with oxidizing agent by adding portions in small
doses at specific intervals not allowing the temperature to rise
above 40OC, external cooling as the oxidation stage is
exothermic.
The residue is filtered and treated with a mild alkali.
The water soluble salt of humic acid thus formed goes into
solution, with is filtered to separate it from
insoluble inorganic residue.
It can be dried in trays or the humic acid can be precipitated
back by acid treatment.

10. Applications
Humic acid utilization can be very economical
for agricultural crops, due to availability of very
cheap indigenous raw material in the form of
lignitic coal and indigenous production
technology

13. Imports into India
Recently India imported humic acid worth USD
3,404,733 with total quantity of 4,929,168. China is
the largest supplier of humic acid accounting for
imports worth USD 3,134,406 followed by United
States and Canada which exported humic acid worth
USD 133,216 and USD 67,057 respectively.
Chennai Sea accounted for 49.3% of imports followed
by Nhava Sheva Sea and Kolkata Sea which account
for 35.4% and 7.8% of imports respectively.
Average price of humic acid per unit is USD 0.69 and
average value per shipment is 9,700
