Systems and methods for the treatment of wastewater are provided. By incorporating one or more intermediate phosphate recovery reactors and manipulating the effluent and/or solid streams from those reactors, the systems and methods provide effluent and solid streams having customized phosphate content throughout the wastewater treatment process.

A method of producing phosphoric acid 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.

A method for preparation of graft modified ammonium polyphosphate with ultra-low hydroplaning and resistance to hydrolysis belongs to the field of the preparation of flame retardant. Ammonia water is used as hydrolytic agent of amino silane. In the early stage of synthesis of ammonium polyphosphate with phosphorus pentoxide, diammonium hydrogen phosphate and melamine as raw materials, hydrolyzed amino silane ammonia mixture is added, and continues warming reaction, when the temperature drops to a certain temperature, melamine is added to maintain high temperature reaction for a certain period of time, then cools to obtain graft modified ammonium polyphosphate with ultra-low hydroplaning and resistance to hydrolysis. The present disclosure grafts ammonium polyphosphate with two kinds of amino grafting in stages, and the modified ammonium polyphosphate products after grafted basically have no hydroplaning when meets water. Because of addition of excessive melamine in late stage, the excessive melamine is not only used for graft modified ammonium polyphosphate, but also used for reacting with acidic ammonium polyphosphate whose polymerization is incomplete, making it form polyphosphate melamine, eliminate the formation of water-soluble small molecules, and reduce water solubility of the products to a greater extent.

Provided herein are systems and methods for producing nitrophosphates and mineralized carbon. Advantageously, the systems and methods are capable of sequestering carbon from the atmosphere. The systems generally include a first reactor for producing nitric acid; a mixer for mixing the nitric acid produced in the first reactor with a phosphate source, thereby producing nitro-phosphoric acid; and a second reactor for producing a solution comprising nitrophosphates and mineralized carbon, wherein the second reactor is operable to receive: the nitro-phosphoric acid from the mixer, ammonia, water, and carbon dioxide.
