Ammonium sulfate is an inorganic salt with a high solubility that disassociates into ammonium (NH + 4) and sulfate (SO 2− 4) in aqueous solutions. [1] Ammonium sulfate is especially useful as a precipitant because it is highly soluble, stabilizes protein structure, has a relatively low density, is readily available, and is relatively inexpensive.
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
Salting out (also known as salt-induced precipitation, salt fractionation, anti-solvent crystallization, precipitation crystallization, or drowning out) [1] is a purification technique that utilizes the reduced solubility of certain molecules in a solution of very high ionic strength.
Calcium carbonate precipitates as a solid, leaving ammonium sulfate in the solution. (NH 4) 2 CO 3 + CaSO 4 → (NH 4) 2 SO 4 + CaCO 3. Ammonium sulfate occurs naturally as the rare mineral mascagnite in volcanic fumaroles and due to coal fires on some dumps. [14] Ammonium sulfate is a byproduct in the production of methyl methacrylate. [15]

It also aids in separation of proteins using purification techniques such as salting out, e.g. ammonium sulfate precipitation. [6] Centrifugation is also an important technique in waste treatment, being one of the most common processes used for sludge dewatering. [21]
Ammonium bisulfate, also known as ammonium hydrogen sulfate, is a white, crystalline solid with the formula (NH 4)HSO 4. This salt is the product of the half-neutralization of sulfuric acid by ammonia .
