METHOD OF PRODUCTION OF DIAMMONIUM PHOSPHATE Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: agriculture; production of mineral fertilizers.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to production of ammonium phosphates, in particular, diammonium phosphate widely used in agriculture as mineral fertilizers. The method includes neutralization of phosphoric acid by ammonia at an increased pressure, a stirring action of the produced mixture in a static mixer with its subsequent granulation and drying of the product. Neutralization is conducted in two stages: on the first of which feed 8 - 85 % of ammonia from total amount and the process is conducted under the pressure of 3.5 - 8.0 atm, and on the second stage feed the remained amount of ammonia and reduce pressure to 1.5 - 3.0 atm. At that the stirring action is carried on simultaneously with a treatment of the mixture with ultrasound with a pulse power from 100 up to 1000 W. Before granulation additionally reduce the pressure by 0.5 - 0.8 atm as compared with the pressure of the second stage of neutralization. Ultrasonic treatment additionally conduct and on the first stage of neutralization. The technical result is production of a homogenous product of improved quality, decreased power inputs and losses of ammonia in the general process.

EFFECT: the invention ensures production of a homogenous product of improved quality, decreased power inputs and losses of ammonia in the general process.
