Abstract
Aqueous phosphoric acid, e.g., a slurry of the acid produced by the 'wet' process, is contacted with steam under organic volatile-removing conditions to remove volatile organic material. A 'wet process' aspect of the process involves contacting crude phosphoric acid produced by the wet process at a temperature, preferably not greater than 100.degree. C., while binding bindable solid impurities present and controlling the density of the acid to avoid deleterously affecting the processing character of the acid. In a first facet of this aspect, humic-extracting extractants are employed to remove humics, and in a second facet, heavy metal-extracting extractants are employed to recover heavy metals, from the acid.
