ABSTRACT:
Ammonium polyphosphate fertilizer solutions contaminated with carbon and carbonaceous residues are decarbonized by a sequential treatment to produce a light-colored solution/slurry of fertilizer solution containing essentially no visible carbon. In the first step, a mixture of an organic amine with a quaternary ammonium salt is dispersed in the contaminated fertilizer solution. In the second step a water immiscible hydrocarbon of low polarity is incorporated into the fertilizer solution by low shear agitation. In the third step a very slow agitation of the mixed system provides for the rising and coalescence of the low density hydrocarbon droplets containing the carbonaceous particles into a layer above the fertilizer solution.
