Book Description
It's VOLUME II of Mohamed I. Elgafi's first book, PHOSPHORIC ACID AND PHOSPHATE FERTILIZERS: Recent Advances and Future Trends. You'll need this Appendix to navigate through the 454-page, Volume I. With over 55 years' experience in the phosphorous industry, Mohamed I. Elgafi, encapsulates a variety of thrilling recent advances, such as:* The effects of solid, liquid, gas and radiation pollution;* Fluorides, heavy metals, uranium, rare earth metal issues and recovery;* Futuristic trends in mining, mineral processing, phosphoric acid and phosphate production;* Phosphoric acid industry corrosion;* Time-tested and preferred materials of construction for manufacturing, storage, handling, and selection criteria; * Recycling technologies and sustainability aspects of non-renewable phosphorus needed to maintain the biological integrity of humans and animals; * Simulation, optimization, data science applicability and functionality in the industry;* Energy consumption in a phosphoric acid production complex;* Description of premium equipment provided by world-class builders;* Phosphate chemistry, phosphate rocks, world resources and reserves, plus production and price data.Mr. Elgafi comes highly recommended by the following phosphate industry leaders:Prof./Dr. Ewald SchnugDirector Institute for Plant and Soil ScienceJKI, Braunschweig:Mohamed Elgafi's book provides a complete overview on the phosphate industry, as well as the development cycle of phosphates, from rock to fertilizer products. Especially intriguing is the detailed description of case histories. The dedication of an entire chapter to uranium makes the book outstanding among the number of already existing books on phosphorous. The book fully satisfies the appetite of those who want to know the tiniest detail of phosphate fertilizer production. It�s wealth of background information for any aspect makes it a perfect source and provides deeply rooted, state-of-the-art knowledge, as a foundation for lectures and your own forthcoming publications. Dr. Vaughn V AstleyDr. Phosphate, Inc.The materials I reviewed in Mr. Elgafi's book will certainly give the reader, and any technical person, significant understanding of the intricacies of the phosphoric acid industry, together with insight as to what is required to understand the wet process phosphoric acid and fertilizer industry. A very good read indeed. Particularly interesting is his Phosphorus Sustainability and Recycling coverage, considering the poor, overall conversion of mined phosphorus, end-product fertilizers. Mr. Elgafi's overall coverage, from mining through beneficiation, phosphoric acid manufacture, phosphogypsum disposal, fertilizers, P sustainability, and even Uranium and Rare Earth opportunities is excellent! A detailed primer on what it takes to succeed in the phosphate fertilizer business.
