Project overview

The Ghorasal–Polash Urea Fertilizer Project is a major industrial development in Narsingdi District, approximately 50 km northeast of Dhaka.

The facility was developed to modernise Bangladesh's fertiliser production infrastructure, replacing older manufacturing capacity with a more energy-efficient natural gas-based production complex.

Designed for 2,800 tonnes of granular urea and 1,600 tonnes of ammonia per day, the development integrates ammonia production, urea synthesis and granulation with extensive supporting utilities.

Environmental infrastructure forms an important part of the complex. Dedicated water and wastewater treatment facilities support industrial operations, while a carbon dioxide recovery system captures CO₂ from the production process for reuse in urea manufacturing.

The development also incorporates onsite power generation and associated industrial infrastructure, bringing together chemical processing, water management and resource recovery within a single production facility.
