Abstract
Phosphate rock and sulfuric acid are reacted under conditions which result in the formation calcium sulfate hemihydrate and phosphoric acid of about 30% to about 55% P.sub.2 O.sub.5. A two vessel reaction system is used in which the reaction slurry undergoes inter- and intra- vessel circulation. This results in excellent dispersion of reactants and minimization of temperature and concentration gradients throughout the slurry.
