Optimization of Decomposition Process of Karatau Phosphorites

Abstract

Phosphorous-acid process of Karatau phosphorites’ decomposition has been studied. The impact of temperature, time and acid rate on decomposition process of phosphate raw material, the conditions ensuring maximum degree of phosphorite decomposition have been identified. Variance estimate of experiment results’ reproducibility has been carried out by mathematical statistics method; the coefficients of regression equations have been set. The significance of regression equation coefficients has been checked up by Student’s criterion, and the adequacy of regression equation to experiment has been checked up by Fisher's criterion. With the use of utopian point method the parameters of studied raw materials’ decomposition have been optimized.

Complex mineral fertilizers: opportunities of manufacturing them from technogenic wastes

“…This cottrell dust in the form of suspension -cottrell milk is discharged into evaporation basins 3 . In addition to, on the territory of the former phosphorus factory in Shymkent there have been accumulated over 500 thousand tons of phosphorus sludge, the chemical and granulometric composition of which is characterized by complex inclusions of mineral components of charge and products of processing 4 .…”
