Natural phosphate-bearing material, such as rock phosphate (RP), represents a less costly plant fertilization option but is a limiting nutrient in the plant available form (de Medeiros et al. 2019).Therefore, in the manufacturing of conventional phosphorus (P) fertilizer, high-grade RPs are treated with sulfuric acid at an elevated …

Phosphate rocks were leached with hydrochloric acid; and radium was removed by co-precipitation with BaSO4. Uranium and lanthanides were extracted by di(2-ethyl hexyl) phosphoric acid and tributyl phosphate. Phosphoric acid was then separated from calcium chloride solution and other impurities by extraction using undiluted iso-amyl …

However, the predictions of Eq. (14) are not in good agreement of the experimental results for a leaching phosphate rock into sulfuric acid. The gap is substantial for the high reaction time (Fig. 6).The reason of this is that the formation of the solid (gypsum) can clog the pores and the pore diffusion model will be faulty.

limestone (CaCO3) present in the phosphate rock reacts with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) releasing carbon dioxide (CO2). The amount of carbon in the phosphate rock feedstock varies depending on the region in which it was mined. Phosphate rock is also used to produce triple super phosphate and elemental phosphorus. 2.

Limestone is mostly made up of the mineral calcium carbonate (CaCO3). This is not very soluble, so rocks don't dissolve very quickly. But if you add an acid, you add hydrogen ions (H+), which will react with the carbonate to form hydrogen carbonate HCO3- ions, which are very soluble in water, and the limestone will dissolve. Or, if there is more …
