Monocalcium Phosphate (MCP) and Dicalcium Phosphate (DCP)

Tricalcium orthophosphate, Ca3 (PO4)2, commonly known as calcium phosphate, occurs in nature as rock phosphate ore, for example and is used as such as a source of fertilizer. It can also be converted with sulphuric acid to a mixture of calcium sulphate and phosphoric acid, or it can also be converted with sulphuric acid to a mixture of calcium sulfate and monocalcium phosphate, Ca(H2 PO4)2, the latter also being known as calcium dihydrogen phosphate. Calcium phosphate has a relatively low phosphorous content (20% m/m) while monocalcium phosphate, while having a much higher phosphorous content (26.5% m/m), is difficult to manufacture, and also expensive mainly because one of the by-products of the reaction by means of which it is so prepared, calcium sulphate, has to be discarded as a waste product.
Therefore, there is a need  for an economical method of producing calcium hydrogenphosphate from calcium phosphate. There is a further need in the art for an economical method of producing monocalcium phosphate fertilizer from calcium phosphate and further producing edible products from the resultant fertilizer.
