Treating phosphate rock with sulfuric acid produces phosphoric acid,the water-soluble material from which most phosphate fertilizers are derived. The process involves dissolution of phosphate rock in an aqueous mixture of phosphoric and sulfuric acid and subsequent crystallization of calcium sulfate dihydrate from the product phosphoric acid solution.
Contact2018. 4. 10. phosphate rock with sulfuric acid to form the soluble calcium di-hydrogen phosphate, Ca(H2PO4)2. This is described by the following equation: PO4 3-+ H 2SO4 → H2PO4-+ SO 4 2-The phosphate rock, imported from Nauru, Jordan, Morocco, Israel and the USA, is mainly fluorapatite, Ca5(PO4)3F and is equivalent to 70 85% Ca3(PO4)2 by weight.
ContactPhosphate rock and sulfuric acid are the two major raw materials for manufacture of phosphate fertilizers. Nearly all commercial phosphate fertilizers are derived from phosphate rock; the major exception is basic slag which derives its phosphorus indirectly from phosphate minerals that are present in iron ore or deliberately added to the iron blast furnace charge.
ContactThe super phosphates and phosphoric acid are manufactured from phosphate rock and sulphuric acid with the phosphate rock coming from Dorowa mine. Sulphuric acid took prominent place in technological and industrial history due to its use in a number of chemical products, including hydrochloric acid, hydrogen, super phosphate, bleach, and soda.
ContactSulfuric acid is used as a key first step in the production of both MAP and DAP, after which it is mixed with phosphate rock to produce phosphoric acid. And since the phosphoric acid production process consumes energy, an on-site sulfuric acid plant a net producer of energy is a critical part of the fertilizer production process.
ContactThe rock phosphate is treated with half-concentrated sulfuric acid. Ca 3 (PO 4) 2 + 2 H 2 SO 4 + 4 H 2 O ———> Ca(H 2 PO 4) 2 + 2 CaSO 4 · 2 H 2 O. The mixture of primary phosphate and gypsum is called superphosphate and is an important fertilizer. In this form, the phosphate is readily available to plants. The sulfate content is also an advantage.

Contact2020. 8. 15. The solubilization of these RPs was tested with five organic acids commonly produced by PSM, namely citric, gluconic, itaconic, malic, and oxalic acid ( Table 2 ). Sulfuric acid was used as a standard of RP solubilization. Table 1. Characteristics of the rock phosphates used in
Contact2019. 6. 25. The phosphate rock is first ground and fed to a reactor vessel for an acidulation reaction with sulfuric acid. In the reaction, the tricalcium phosphate in the phosphate rock is converted to phosphoric acid and to the insoluble salt calcium sulfate (CaSO4), also known as . gypsum. The concentration of sulfuric acid is carefully
