Abstract. Phosphate rock (PR) is a finite mineral indispensable for fertilizer production, while P (phosphorus) is a major pollutant if applied or discharged in excess, causing widespread eutrophication (Carpenter and Bennet, 2011). High-grade PR is obtained from deposits which took millions of years to form and which are gradually being depleted.

Abstract. In 1980, the United States produced about 54 million tons of phosphate rock, or about 40 percent of the world's production, of which a substantial amount was exported, both as phosphate rock and as chemical fertilizer. During the last decade, predictions have been made that easily ruinable, low-cost reserves of phosphate rock would be ...

Abstract. Some phosphate rock contains elevated concentrations of natural uranium. China is the largest phosphate rock producing country in the world and will soon have the largest uranium requirements in the world as well. Most phosphate rock deposits in China show low uranium concentrations (20–30 mg/kg) so that the recovery of radiotoxic ...

Direct application of phosphate rock (PR) may provide the essential phosphorus (P) nutrient for crop production in acid soils.However, the agronomic effectiveness of PR depends on several factors including PR reactivity, soil properties, and crop species.This greenhouse study investigated the effects of PR reactivity, soil pH, Al saturation, and crop species on the initial and residual ...

Rock phosphate, the primary raw material for fertilizer and phosphoric acid, occurs as high-grade ore (+30% P 2 O 5), medium-grade ore (20%–30% P 2 O 5), and low-grade ore (15%–20% P 2 O 5). The very high-grade ore blends with medium-grade ore for direct sale. The high-grade ore is mined, crushed, and sold to various fertilizer plants.

Abstract. Dissolution of North Carolina phosphate rock (PR) in the rhizosphere of white lupin (Lupinus albus) and narrow leaf lupin (L. angustifolius) was measured in a growth chamber experiment. Plants were grown for 8-13 days in an artificial soil (pure alumina sand) at alkaline pH to eliminate dissolution of PR due to reaction with the soil.

Abstract For ground phosphate rock (GPR) to be applied as phosphorus fertilizer, the availability of phosphorus to plants needs to be improved. One possible way to achieve this is by adding sulphur, which will accelerate decomposition of phosphate in soil owing to the activation of microbiological processes. This study involved granulation of fertilizers composed of phosphate and sulphur mixed ...

Suppliers of phosphate rock and fertilizers made from it are faced with a fairly bleak outlook over the next few years. Against rising production capacity, demand on the world market is declining. As a consequence, the weakening of prices that set in this year may continue through 1980. This is the general picture that emerged when delegates met in London earlier this month for the 50th annual ...

Rock phosphate when applied alone was recorded inferior but its performance significantly improved with compost or its pre-addition with FYM and HA, that further enhanced upon acidulation. Maize grain yield increased by 21, 22.2, 67.9 and 94% with RP, ARP, ARP enriched compost and ARP+ compost respectively, over control.

Abstract : Phosphate rock is one of the more abundant of the world's natural resources, but each deposit has its own characteristics which must be taken into account when processing. As the quality of phosphate rock available for processing declines, the P 2 O 5 content goes down and the content of impurities. tends to rise.

The effectiveness of rock phosphate was generally low compared with fertilizers such as triple super phosphate. This is attributed to the relatively low solubility of the rocks as opposed to the readily water soluble phosphorus fertilizers. Phosphate rocks are available locally and are cheaper than triple super phosphate. If the solubility of ...

Abstract: Unlike water soluble phosphorus (P) fertilizers, most phosphate rocks (PRs) are non-reactive in agricultural soils, particularly in neutral to alkaline soils. One innovative and practical approach to enhancing PR agronomic efficiency is "activation" of the PRs with water soluble P (WSP) fertilizers.
