Abstract
Fertilizers with controlled nutrient release produced from the treatment of solid waste with a phosphate to derive paper pulp and precipitated inks, coatings and waxes removed from the paper fibers.
Claims9
An anti-caking fertilizer product comprising a mixture of MgNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4 and CaNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4 and ingredients consisting of inks, coatings, waxes and adhesives separated from waste paper, said phosphates being present in amounts sufficient to provide desired concentrations and ratios of the soil nutrient atoms, N, P and Mg.
An anti-caking fertilizer product comprising a mixture of MgKPO.sub.4 and MgNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4 co-deposited with inks, coatings, waxes and adhesives separated from waste paper, said phosphates being present in amounts sufficient to provide desired concentrations and ratios of the soil nutrient atoms N, P, K and Mg.
An anti-caking fertilizer product comprising a phosphate selected from MgNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4, CaNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4, MgKPO.sub.4, CaKPO.sub.4 or mixtures thereof, co-deposited with inks, coatings, waxes and adhesives from a paper pulp slurry derived from waste, said phosphates being present in amounts sufficient to provide desired concentrations and ratios of the soil nutrient atoms, N, P, Mg and K.
A fertilizer product comprising a phosphate selected from MgNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4, CaNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4, MgKPO.sub.4, CaPKO.sub.4 or mixtures thereof and alpha cellulose formed in situ from cellulose xanthate in the product to bind the phosphates and control the release of the soil nutrients beyond their inherent control due to the limited solubilities of the phosphates, the phosphates being present in amounts sufficient to provide desired concentrations and ratios of the soil nutrient atoms.
An anti-caking fertilizer product consisting essentially of a mixture of MgNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4, CaNH.sub.4 PO.sub.4,MgKPO.sub.4, CaKPO.sub.4 co-deposited with inks, coatings, waxes and adhesives from a paper pulp slurry derived from waste, and alpha cellulose formed in situ from cellulose xanthate in the product to bind the phosphates and control the release of the soil nutrients beyond their inherent control due to the limited solubilities of the phosphates, said phosphates being present in amounts sufficient to provide desired concentrations and ratios of the soil nutrient atoms N, P, Mg and K.
