With the effects of Global Warming and climate change, it is imperative now more than ever to be conscious of how we can efficiently use our natural resources so as not to be wasteful. This also helps in simultaneously limiting our usage of these resources to what we can afford to deplete. That is why Dar is always excited to join in on projects that work towards this goal, such as the Arab Potash Company (APC)’s expansion of their firm. This much-needed upgrade would allow the company to reach an annual potash production of 2.45 million tons/year. By contributing to the project, we enable people to build on and benefit from their natural resources.

Dar’s contribution to the project was diverse. Our teams expanded the solar pond systems to increase camallite production. They also upgraded of the existing Cold Crystallization Plant (CCP) and built a new state-of-the-art CCP to decompose the carnallite harvested from the ponds. We expanded the existing warehouse and increased its potash storage capacity by 60,000 tons. The new product warehouse we designed has a nominal potash storage capacity of 40,000 tons.
