Abstract

The concentration of impurities in wet-process phosphoric acid limits the usefulness of the acid for the production of fertilizers, feed-grade phosphate and detergents. The aluminum, magnesium, and fluoride impurities are removed with the calcium sulfate hemihydrate filter cake by hydrolyzing and recycling the off-gas scrubber solutions in the presence of a ferric iron catalyst. The aluminum and magnesium are reduced to less than 0.1 percent in the acid product by the precipitation of (Ca,Mg)Al2 F8.2H2 O, which is acid insoluble and suitable for storage with the byproduct calcium sulfate. Ferric iron also serves as a catalyst for the simultaneous precipitation of (Na,K)2 SiF6. Subsequent additions of potassium as, for example, in the teachings of Gilbert (U.S. Pat. No. 3,338,675), can then be applied to obtain a purified phosphoric acid product suitable for most commercial applications. The added potassium serves two purposes in the 40 to 55 percent P2 O5 acid since ferric iron is reduced to 0.25 percent Fe2 O3 by the precipitation of Fe3 KH14 (PO4)8.4H2 O and the SiF6 = is reduced to about 0.2 percent by the precipitation of K2 SiF6. This subsequent precipitate contains about 50 percent P2 O5 and is as effective as superphosphate [Ca(H2 PO4)2.H2 O] in supporting plant growth.
