Definitions
- the technological concept disclosed herein generally relates to purification of industrial process streams. More particularly, the concept disclosed herein relates to removing heavy metal ions from phosphoric acid containing streams.
- phosphoric acid is produced according to the wet process, which is conventionally prepared by acidulating phosphate rock (which contains calcium phosphate) with sulfuric acid to yield a crude wet-process phosphoric acid (WPA) and insoluble calcium sulfate (gypsum).
- WPA wet-process phosphoric acid
- gypsum insoluble calcium sulfate
- the purified phosphoric acid is either sent out as Merchant Grade Acid (MGA) or continued to make 69 % P2O5 Super Phosphoric Acid (SPA), where it can be converted to many end products ranging from a chemical reagent, rust inhibitor, food additive, dental and orthopaedic etchant, electrolyte, flux, dispersing agent, industrial etchant, fertilizer feedstock, and component of home cleaning products.
- MAA Merchant Grade Acid
- SPA Super Phosphoric Acid
- crude phosphoric acid is concentrated to 54 % (P2O5) before being sent for monoammonium phosphate (MAP), diammonium phosphate (DAP), or ammonium phosphate-sulfate (APS) production.
- MAP monoammonium phosphate
- DAP diammonium phosphate
- APS ammonium phosphate-sulfate
- phosphoric acid During the production of phosphoric acid, certain metal impurities in the form of heavy metal ions, such as cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), lead (Pb), copper (Cu), and mercury (Hg), are present as minerals in the phosphate rock and are dissolved into the phosphoric acid. Depending on the application of the phosphoric acid, the metal impurities above a certain level are considered unacceptable because of their toxicity.
- Cd cadmium
- Au arsenic
- Pb lead
- Cu copper
- Hg mercury
- Cd cadmium
- Phosphate fertilizers have been identified as an important source that introduces Cd to the soil, which can be easily absorbed by agricultural plants and accumulated into the food chain (“Cadmium in phosphate fertilizers; ecological and economical aspects”, CHEMIK 2014, 68, 10, 837-842).
- Cd in phosphate fertilizer comes from phosphoric acid, the major raw material used to produce phosphate fertilizer. In fact, the majority of phosphoric acid production is used to produce fertilizer. Cd in phosphoric acid further stems from the phosphate bearing ores. Therefore, Cd can be removed either from the phosphate ore or from the phosphoric acid stream, with the latter being the focus of research in the past decades.

Afterwards, the precipitates can be separated from the acid using methods like flotation or filtration.
