Incorporating… with constraints
o Into existing units (integrated processes)
If one coughs, another sneezes !

Incorporating… with constraints
o Win win situation • overall profitability • over the complete chain
(materials, logistics, process costs, wastes, etc.)
Risk assessment

Risks
o Quality of our productions
+ Safety and environmental issues
o For our installations : often (too) low P2O5
Reagents & Energy Maintenance By-products & Wastes Water balance etc.

Each product requires its own evaluation:
Nature of products and by-products
Physical aspects and properties
Quantities, time, localisation
P-content and impurities
Variability

Phosphoric acid
Spent acids recycling since Y2K Variability according to the source (process, etc.)
Drift regarding the specs (metals such as Na & Mg, heavy metals, organic matters)

Phosphoric acids
Some discarded cases: Incompatibility with • process • materials resistance • raw materials specs • internal client specs • final products specs

Phosphoric acids
Currently, 4 recent projects approved by R&D
• 4 out of 7 • other Departments: approval pending
• metal surface treatment • water treatment
• DE, BE

Phosphate salts
1. Calcium phosphate
Substituing calcium phosphate for phosphate rock (> 400 kT) Actually, 2 R&D projects still running (NL)
2. Struvite
Risk of market overflow due to municipal P recovery A convenient raw material for a combined production of phosphoric acid and NP-fertilisers ?
3. Others
Currently, 2 R&D projects running (FR, DE)

Additional hurdles
Legislation & Regulations Acceptance & Reputation Croesus’ Myth
![Page 19: Phosphorus Stewardship in Industrial Applications · CHAPTER : 1 . European Sustainable Phosphorus Platform . 1st EU Raw Material Week . 1st December 2016, Brussels .

Additional hurdles
o Legislation & Regulations • Waste, by-product • Transportation, border crossing • Fertilisers Directive • …
o Croesus’ Myth • Will my residue become a gold mine ?
![Page 20: Phosphorus Stewardship in Industrial Applications · CHAPTER : 1 . European Sustainable Phosphorus Platform . 1st EU Raw Material Week . 1st December 2016, Brussels .

20
Additional hurdles
o Acceptance & Reputation • For the general public, P is the environmental enemy
(after the excesses of its use in 60-70’s)
• Is P replacement in laundry really a green solution in case of Circular Economy ?
• Are we ready to change 40 years of communication about P in order to support the Circular Economy ?

21
Additional hurdles
o Acceptance & Reputation • The «Lavoisier Syndrome»:
P from my waste into my plate again ? How good does one accept it ?
o An organic threat: bioactive molecules • drugs, hormones, endocrine disruptors, etc. • from municipal sludges, pharmaceutical industrial
waste, manures from intensive farming, etc.
Is there any other solution than a thermal process ?

22
Introspective conclusions
Obvious limits of our current approach
o Existing processes investments required
o Risk assessment studies tedious, costy
Internal debate o Dedicated unit ? o Specific new technologies ?

23
For further debate
Win win win conditions
o A high(er) P-content allows a reliable recovery with operating technologies
o A low P-content means investments to close the loop
Today the P recovery is more expensive than the phosphate rock. A sustainable solution should take this into account…
