An ammonium phosphate fertilizer solution having 20 to 40 percent of the P2O5 content thereof in the form of polyphosphates is prepared by reacting wet-process phosphoric acid directly with ammonia at 425*-460*F. to produce a low-nonortho ammonium phosphate melt which is then further reacted with aqueous ammonia. Desirably, heat exchange is utilized to conserve energy normally wasted in processes utilizing direct ammoniation of phosphoric acid. The resulting solution must be filtered to remove non-chelated metal impurities. The product solution contains phosphate in essentially only the stable pyrophosphate and orthophosphate forms, whereby the chelating ability of the solution is retained for long storage periods.

Pugmill granulation process for the production of fertilizers containing urea and ammonium polyphosphate. Concentrated urea solution is sprayed onto recycled solids in the pugmill followed by molten ammonium polyphosphate. The melt is fed to the pugmill at a minimum of 12 inches downstream from the urea to prevent hydrolysis of the urea which results in foaming and gas evolution. The product from the pugmill is essentially anhydrous, and no further drying is required. Other fertilizer materials such as ammonium sulfate, potassium chloride, or micronutrient sources may be incorporated by adding them to the pugmill during granulation.

Method and apparatus, in the form a kit of parts, for securing and restraining the threaded brass adapter bushing of a standard pressure tester in its threaded engagement within the riser of a tapping tee on a gas main during pressure testing of the main, to prevent blow-off of the bushing. The assembled parts provide a swivel plate having respective connection rod apertures at its opposite ends and mounted loosely via an enlarged central aperture on the nipple of the tester immediately adjacent to the adapter bushing which is threaded onto, and holds the swivel plate on the nipple; an elongated angular saddle plate placed against the gas main below the tapping tee and having diagonally disposed connection rod apertures corresponding to those in the swivel plate; and a pair of threaded connection rods passed through the respective corresponding pairs of apertures and tightly connecting the swivel plate and saddle plate. The angular positioned swivel plate and diagonal disposition of the saddle plate apertures causes the rods to bypass the horizontal branch of the tapping tee. The swivel plate is pressed into engagement with the tester bushing, thereby preventing blowoff. In an alternative embodiment, a wire rope is substituted for the pair of connection rods. |

A layer of bare, untreated phosphate rock granules is applied to the soil, and concentrated sulfuric acid is supplied thereto. The sulfuric acid is sufficiently concentrated so as to be containable by cold-rolled carbon steel, and sufficiently viscous to cling to the granules to react therewith. Sulfuric acid in excess of the amount needed for reaction with the phosphate rock can be added to correct alkaline conditions in the underlying soil. The reaction of sulfuric acid with the phosphate rock produces substantial quantities of available phosphate and gypsum. |

Disclosed is a method of making granular superphosphate by reacting comminuted phosphate rock with phosphoric acid. The process involves two reaction steps. A predetermined amount of phosphoric acid is reacted with phosphate rock in quantities to produce a flowable fluid excess acid slurry which will remain liquid and fluid at the temperature of the reaction. The slurry is then injected into an agitating mixer containing comminuted phosphate rock. The ratio of slurry to phosphate rock in the mixer is controlled to complete the reaction between the phosphate rock and phosphoric acid and produce a granulated superphosphate product having a moisture content of about 5% or less.
