Phosphate
Phosphate is an organic compound of phosphoric acid, extracted from the ground and used in agriculture and industry, and is an important natural asset.
Specifications and in-kind characteristics
Phosphate rocks exist in nature in several forms:
Extraction, Mining and Product Processing for Industry
There are some stages at which mining and phosphate extraction from the subsoil of the Earth is carried out through a detector method, a method in which the dirt cover is removed by devices called envelopes or conventional mechanisms, and the mining and phosphate extraction processes are carried out as follows
1
Extracting
› First detonate where the backfill is detonated and then removed.
› The assembly takes place and is carried out by various mining mechanisms.
› In the end, phosphate is loaded and transferred to the site of crushers or for storage.
2
Cracking
› The ore is then cracked into small pieces and then precise cracking.
› The crushers break down the phosphate and carbonate it.
› The output is sorted according to the required size.
3
Processing
› The aim of this phase is to improve the quality of phosphates and do the disposal of the most impurities.
› Raise the ratio of calcium triphosphate.
› Low-ratio phosphate washing, in which the ratio of TCP is raised and impurities removed.

Phosphate ApplicationsUses
Phosphate is indispensable in the field of drinking water treatment, both phosphate and phosphoric acid are included in many uses related to the treatment and purification of drinking water.
Phosphate compounds in sedimentary rock and volcanic rock extract the phosphorus element that is involved in the manufacture of agricultural fertilizers, as plant fertilizers consist of one of four phosphorous compounds, namely; Ammonium monophosphate, ammonium diphosphate, monophosphate superphosphate and triphosphate superphosphate and these are not the only phosphate chemicals that go into the fertilizer industry but are the most famous, and on the other hand phosphoric acid is made from phosphate, which is also used in the fertilizer and soap industry.
Phosphate has an important role to play in the paint material industry, as it is a necessary material in paints, hydrothermal coatings, polishing materials used in aluminum polishing and aluminum alloy.
Phosphorus extracted from phosphate rock is used in the fireworks industry, which is used in various kinds of ceremonies and events.
Phosphate can be introduced into the industry of many medicines and pharmaceuticals, especially dental-related preparations, such as tooth creams and toothpaste.
Phosphate is included in the manufacture of many foods, it is added to processed foods and drinks such as: sauces, baked goods, soft drinks and others, and phosphate is added in most canned, frozen or pre-cooked foods.
Phosphate is also used as an essential ingredient in most common household detergents as washing detergents,
The world's phosphate production rate is 240 million tons per year. Phosphate reserves worldwide are about 69 billion tons. Phosphate is a very important substance. It can be - -
- used in many other industries:
› Semiconductor industry.
› Fireproof garment industry.
› High-tech electronics industry.
› Processing various types of ceramics.
› cosmetic industry.
› Animal feed industry.
