SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PHOSPHATE PROCESSING

Embodiments described herein provide systems and methods for a phosphate processing system with integrated sub-systems, such as a phosphoric acid plant, precipitation system, crystallizer system, rinsing system, granulation system, pond water system, organics removal system, and/or exhaust treatment system. Such sub-systems can be integrated with each other by using one or more output streams from one or more sub-systems as one or more input streams for one or more sub-systems. In some embodiments, the phosphate processing system can produce phosphoric acid, struvite containing fertilizer, fertilizer using recycled struvite, magnesium or fluoride containing compositions using recycled magnesium or fluoride, and other components using phosphoric acid collected from a phosphoric acid and gypsum composition or using sludge collected from a waste stream, for example.
