    Abstract: A process and apparatus for producing phosphoric acid by the recovery of P.sub.2 O.sub.5 from a phosphate ore is disclosed. A slurry of a phosphate ore in an aqueous phosphoric acid solution is formed in each of a plurality of reaction zones connected in series. Phosphate ore is introduced into the first reaction zone and phosphoric acid into the last reaction zone whereby the reaction of the phosphoric acid with the ore forms a slurry of coarse solids, fine solids and monocalcium phosphate in the phosphoric acid solution. A first process stream comprising coarse solids is removed from the first reaction zone and each of the other reaction zones and is transferred to the adjacent, successive reaction zone. A second process stream comprising fine solids is removed from the last reaction zone and the other reaction zones and is transferred into the adjacent, preceding zone in a direction which is countercurrent to the direction of flow of the first process stream and is concurrent with the direction of flow of the phosphoric acid from the last to the first reaction zones. A differential of phosphoric acid concentration is maintained between the reaction zones with the concentration decreasing in each reaction zone in the direction of flow of the first process stream.

    Abstract: Phosphoric acid is produced by the wet process from phosphate rock containing fluochlorapatite. The rock is ground in a crusher (10) to a size such that from about 50% to about 90% by weight will be passed by a -200 mesh U.S.S. sieve before being passed into a digestor (14) where it is mixed with sulfuric acid and recycled phosphoric acid to form a slurry. A suitable reductant such as sulphur dioxide is added to the slurry to maintain the oxidation-reduction potential in the range from about +150 mv to about +750 mv. The gypsum by-products are then removed from the slurry at filter (16) and a portion of the acid is recycled to digestor (14). The remaining acid is either concentrated and further processed to make fertilizers or is further processed via path (20) to remove aluminum and/or iron impurities. Select amounts of fluoride and sodium containing compounds are added to the acid in a stirred reactor (30) to cause precipitation of aluminum, principally as Na.sub.2 AlF.sub.5. After about 15 to about 60 minutes of stirring at a temperature below about 70.degree. C., the precipitate is removed at filter (32) where the acid is either processed to make fertilizer or subjected to additional processing to remove iron contaminants. Iron contaminants are removed from the filter acid or from aluminum removed acid from filter (32) by adding sufficient ammonia to the acid in a stirring reactor (40) to cause precipitation of iron principally as NH.sub.4 Fe.sub.2 H.sub.8 (PO.sub.4).sub.5.AH.sub.2 O, to reduce the level of iron to desired levels. After aging in the reactor from about 2 to about 24 hours at a temperature below the boiling point of the acid, the precipitate is removed at filter (42) and the resulting iron reduced acid is concentrated and subjected to conventional processing for making fertilizers.

    Abstract: In a multi-stage, multi-vessel phosphoric acid production system where a first reaction vessel contains a first slurry comprising calcium sulfate hemihydrate, monocalcium phosphate and phosphoric acid and a second reaction vessel contains a second slurry comprising calcium sulfate hemihydrate, sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid, in which the reaction slurry undergoes intra- and inter-vessel circulation, preferably through a draft tube, an improved start-up procedure involves filling the system with heated phosphoric acid having a P.sub.2 O.sub.5 analysis in the range of about 28 to about 38% (e.g. 31%), then feeding phosphate rock to the system, preferably in a separate reaction vessel, while phosphoric acid is recycled from a fourth, filter feed vessel, until the solids content in said slurry is in the range of 25-35% (e.g. about 30%) while the sulfate content in the first vessel is maintained at a negative level (e.g. excess calcium ion) and at a positive level in the second, crystallizer vessel. When the solids content, calcium, and sulfate content are at the proper level (e.g. about 30% solids, -5 to -2% sulfate in the first vessel and +2 to +3% sulfate in the second vessel) the slurry is then transported to a filter and the phosphoric acid is separated from the calcium sulfate hemihydrate.

    Abstract: The invention comprises a multi-vessel reaction apparatus useful for reacting phosphate rock and sulfuric acid in which the reaction slurry undergoes intra- and inter- vessel circulation (preferably through a draft tube). The solution portion of the slurry in a first vessel or set of vessels (the "dissolver") is preferably maintained at at lower sulfate ion concentration and the solution portion of the slurry in the second vessel or system of vessels (the "crystallizer") is preferably maintained at a positive sulfate ion concentration. Also preferred are means for maintaining the second vessel or set of vessels at a reduced pressure. Most preferred is that means be included in at least one said vessel for incorporating a crystal modifier (e.g. a sulfonic acid, a sulfonic acid salt, tall oil fatty acids or alkoxylated or esterified tall oil fatty acids) in the crystallizer. The system can be used in the anhydrite, hemihydrate or gypsum types of processes.

    Abstract: Substantially fluoride-free phosphoric acid is produced by the acidulation of phosphate rock with sulfuric acid wherein the acidulation reaction is conducted in the presence of added potassium as K.sub.2 O bearing compounds, e.g. KHSO.sub.4, K.sub.2 SO.sub.4, KH.sub.2 PO.sub.4 or KOH, and additional silica, to precipitate fluorides and silica as potassium silicofluoride and then removed on separation of the gypsum formed. Optionally, additional silica may be added to the phosphoric acid solution recovered after precipitation and removal of the gypsum, to precipitate additional fluoride as potassium silicofluoride to further purify the phosphoric acid. In a further embodiment sufficient potassium may be added along with additional silica in the acidulation step to produce potassium dihydrogen phosphate and phosphoric acid as additional products. The phosphoric acid and potassium dihydrogen phosphate are recovered substantially free from fluoride contamination and the reaction is carried out in the substantial absence of fluorine evolution into the atmosphere. Also disclosed is a process for conducting a conventional phosphoric acid facility to produce phosphoric acid and gypsum wherein defluorination of the phosphoric acid recovered is achieved by silicon dioxide and K.sub.2 O addition and the fluorides are removed from the system, the process including steps for production of pure phosphoric acid and potassium dihydrogen phosphate.

    Abstract: In the manufacture of phosphoric acid by treatment of phosphate ores with excess phosphoric acid and precipitation of calcium ions as calcium sulfate, the purity and quality of the byproduct calcium sulfate is substantially improved by subjecting the monocalcium phosphate extract of the ore before precipitation of calcium sulfate to one or more preliminary treatments, whereby contaminent ions are substantially and preferentially removed from the extract while the calcium remains substantially in solution. These preliminary treatments may include separation of fluoride by reaction with silicon compounds, separation of radium by reaction with barium compounds in the presence of sulfate ions, and separation of strontium as strontium sulfate.
