Abstract

The transformation of natural phosphorus into plant nutrient phosphorus, natural phosphates from Tahoua were dissolved in mineral acids, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. Dissolution was effected at various concentrations (0.01M; 0.1M and 1M) and stirring times (1 hour, 3 hours and 5 hours).  The results show that for all two acids (2), the dissolution rate is greater in concentrated acid solutions (1M) and for the 5-hour attack time. These rates are 38.37% and 34.87% respectively for sulfuric and hydrochloric acid solutions. Dissolution of Tahoua natural phosphate depends on the concentration of etching solutions and the etching time. With mineral acids (sulfuric and hydrochloric acid), for example, it increases with concentration. This dissolution offers interesting visions for perfecting phosphate fertilizers.
