Process for producing a calcium phosphate reactant, reactant obtained and use thereof in the purification of liquid effluents

This application concerns a process for producing a calcium phosphate reactant, according to which: - in a first step, use is made of a source of calcium and a source of phosphate ions in water, in a molar ratio that is adjusted so as to obtain a Ca/P molar ratio of between 0.5 and 1.6, and the sour...

Zusammenfassung:This application concerns a process for producing a calcium phosphate reactant, according to which: - in a first step, use is made of a source of calcium and a source of phosphate ions in water, in a molar ratio that is adjusted so as to obtain a Ca/P molar ratio of between 0.5 and 1.6, and the source of calcium is reacted with the phosphate ions at a pH of between 2 and 8, in order to obtain a suspension (A) of calcium phosphate, and * - in a second step, added to the suspension (A) are an alkaline compound comprising hydroxide ions in order to set a pH of more than 8 and an additional source of calcium in order to obtain a suspension (B) of calcium phosphate reactant having a Ca/P molar ratio of more than 1.6. Further, the application concerns a method for purifying a liquid effluent containing metallic elements and or non/metallic elements with the calcium phosphate reactant obtainable by this process.
