Abstract: In this paper, the impact of several pelleting process parameters on the quality of the resultant pellets was investigated by using a disk pelletizer with low- and medium-grade phosphate rock powders as the raw material. The results show that the optimized compressive strengths of raw and dried pellets were 12.84 N and 54.58 N, respectively, …
The low-grade phosphate rock sample was crushed and sieved using U.S. Tyler standard sieves to collect various size fractions for analysis. The +24# (+0.701 mm) fraction was further crushed using a mortar grinder to obtain the desired size fractions. ... The by-products, CO 2 and calcium sulphate may be used or sold to other industries to …
As high grade deposits of phosphate rock are being depleted day by day in the world, future sources will be derived from low grade rocks containing various impurities. Low grade phosphate rocks are not suitable for direct use in acidulation plants unless their tricalcium phosphate (TCP) content is increased to 70% or more, using conventional …
Phosphate rock is also the source of by-product fluorine. Apatite & rock phosphate containing 3 to 4% CaF 2 are useful for recovery of fluorite. Hydrofluoro-silicic acid is recovered as by-product from phosphoric acid plants during processing of rock phosphate. Phosphate rocks are also considered as a significant and secondary resource of uranium.
Most of the Indian rock phosphates (RPs) are not suitable for production of commercial phosphate fertilizer because of their low phosphorus (P) content (low-grade). They are suitable as source of P in acid soil, but not effective for direct use in neutral to alkaline soil.The main aim of this study was to evaluate the potentiality of these RPs as …
The microbial consortium proved capable of efficiently releasing soluble phosphate in the reactor effluent over the 90-day trial, indicating healthy growth of the microbial consortium with corresponding acid generation and subsequent enhancement of phosphate solubilization. Mid-low grade phosphate rock (PR) is a potential source of …
Low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs) are naturally occurred in soil, particularly in the rhizosphere due to microbial metabolites and secretion of root exudates. Various functional groups present in LMWOAs can play an effective role in phosphorus dissolution. In this study, potentiality of LMWOAs for phosphorous release …
