Use
Normal superphosphate is made by treating ground rock
phosphate with sulphuric acid.
The above reaction yields monocalcium phosphate
and gypsum.
For the manufacture of normal superphosphates, a
continuous process rather than a batch process is in
vogue. Some of these processes are named after
their inventors, for example, the Tennessee Valley
Authority process, the Maxitz-Standard Den process,
the Broadfield Den process and the Kuhlman Den
process.
The treated mass is sent to a curing shed and stored for
3 to 4 weeks for curing and final drying. The dried
product is excavated, milled, screened, and either bagged
for marketing or sent for granulation.
Granulation is done in a granulator in the presence of
steam and the finished product is then bagged. It contains
16 to 21% phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) in a watersoluble
form. In addition, it contains 11 to 12% sulphur
as calcium sulphate.
