ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling the phosphoric acid product concentration in a continuous phosphoric acid recovery process comprising supplying a constant feed stream of phosphate ore to an attack tank wherein the phosphate ore is subjected to attack by sulfuric and phosphoric acids to produce a slurry comprising an aqueous phosphoric acid solution and calcium sulfate, filtering the slurry to form aqueous phosphoric acid and calcium sulfate filter cake, rinsing said filter cake with water, and adding said rinse water to the attack tank, calculating a first amount of water required to maintain a desired concentration of phosphoric acid in the slurry, said desired concentration calculated based on the concentration of phosphate ore in the feed stream and the filterability of the filter cake, determining the total actual amount of water added to the attack tank, and adjusting the amount of rinse water so that the amount of water added to the attack tank is sufficient to maintain the desired concentration of phosphoric acid in the slurry.
