Abstract

Improved methods for the removal of heavy metals, in particular cadmium, from an aqueous phosphoric acid containing composition, wherein an organothiophosphorous heavy metal precipitating agent and an ionic polymeric surfactant, particularly a cationic polyacrylamide copolymer surfactant, are both added to a phosphoric acid containing composition, particularly under vigorous mixing conditions, such as between 500 and 700 rpm. The ionic polymeric surfactant promotes the precipitation of the heavy metals. More in particular, the phosphoric acid containing composition is obtained by the acid digestion of phosphate rock, preferably by nitric acid, sulfuric acid, or a combination thereof.
