SUSTAINABLE DESALINATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS
The present disclosure is generally directed to a water processing system. In some embodiments, the water processing system may be configured to generate a potassium salt, such as potassium nitrate, an ammonium salt, such as ammonium nitrate, or both. In some embodiments, the water processing system may be at least partially powered by renewable energy, such as by using a liquid storage system that is at least partially underground. In some embodiments, the water processing system may be configured to reuse certain greenhouse emissions to improve performance of power generation systems associated with the water processing system.
METHOD TO MAKE PHOSPHORIC ACID AND AMMONIUM PHOSPHATES FROM PHOSPHATE MINERALS
A method of producing ammonium phosphates from at least one mineral containing phosphate and an element which is calcium, magnesium, iron, or aluminum. The method includes contacting the at least one mineral (or a combination of them) with a cation exchanger for a time and at a temperature sufficient to yield phosphoric acid from the mineral.

METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF AMMONIUM PHOSPHATE FROM PHOSPHATE ROCK SLURRY
A method for production of ammonium phosphate from phosphate rock slurry. The method includes: introducing flue gas containing SO.sub.2 into a phosphate rock slurry, to yield an absorption solution; evaporating waste ammonia water containing 10-20 wt. % ammonia to yield ammonia gas; introducing the ammonia gas into the absorption solution at a temperature of 110-135° C. until a neutralization degree of the absorption solution reaches 1.5-1.6, thus yielding an ammonium phosphate solution and calcium sulfate; separating the calcium sulfate from the ammonium phosphate solution; and introducing the ammonium phosphate solution to a granulator for granulation to yield ammonium phosphate granules; drying and sieving the ammonium phosphate granules, thereby yielding ammonium phosphate.

Method for manufacturing an ammonium phosphate fertilizer having low cadmium content
The invention relates to a method for manufacturing an ammonium phosphate fertilizer from a phosphoric acid aqueous solution that has less than 50% P.sub.2O.sub.5 concentration and is obtained by wet phosphate ore treatment, said phosphoric acid containing traces of cadmium, comprising the following steps: (a) neutralizing said phosphoric acid solution (1) with ammonia (3) up to a molar ratio N/P of between 0.1 and 0.8, (b) reacting said partially neutralized solution (4) with a sulfide source (6) so as to form a cadmium sulfide precipitate (9), (c) separating said precipitate (9) so as to obtain a refined ammoniated phosphoric acid solution (10), (d) ammoniating and granulating said refined solution (10) so as to form said fertilizer (12).

LONG-TERM RETARDANT AND FIRE-SUPPRESSING GEL COMPOSITIONS
Disclosed herein are compositions comprising a super absorbent polymer (SAP) concentrate mixed with a long-term fire-retardant concentrate, prior to dilution with water, to form a mixed concentrate and methods of making such compositions. The mixed concentrate composition can be subsequently mixed with water to produce an aqueous fire-fighting solution.
