INCUMBENT PROCESS

~95% of the world's phosphoric acid is obtained via the complex, expensive, and wasteful Wet-Acid Process (WAP)

The incumbent Wet-Acid Process creates waste in the form of: 

  • Waste mine tailings
  • Radioactive waste
  • Phosphate runoff

By reusing waste materials from incumbent processes, Novaphos is driving sources of value for its two low-footprint, highly scalable processes—enabling sustainable production of high-value phosphoric acid.
