The main objectives of this Second Arab Potash Project are to support an increase in the output of the existing potash production facilities and to initiate a research and development program for assessing the ultimate potential of these facilities. Included in this project are investment and technical assistance components. The investment component will help improve the efficiency of the decomposition and hot leach sections of the refinery and expand overall standby capacity. The technical assistance component will help determine future prospects for technology improvement, cost reduction and growth. The project is expected to generate critically needed foreign exchange earnings. All of APC's (Arab Potash Company) production will be used for exports.
