The phosphate on the rock is in equilibrium with phosphate in the water. So having the rock in water with a low to very low phosphate concentration will slowly remove it from the rock. You can do that before setup, or you can keep it low during the cycle (or both). There are a variety of ways to accomplish this, including GFO, lanthanum ...Web

Phosphate is a relatively low unit-value commodity. Therefore, most phosphate rock extraction operations tend to involve surface mining, large-volume extraction and reasonably low transport distances to major markets (Bartels & Gurr 1994). In comparison to many other mineral commodities, the demand for phosphate rock appears relatively predictableWeb
