This article presents the results of research on the leaching of solid phosphorus-containing waste with humic acid. Such waste includes the by-products of the electrothermal processing of phosphate raw materials—phosphorus sludge and cottrel dust. Chemical and X-ray diffraction analyses have been used to study their composition and phase structure, according to which these substances have an amorphous structure. The leaching of phosphoric sludge and cottrel dust was investigated by varying the main parameters. The obtained data were processed using the method of formal kinetics to study the features of the process. The reaction rate constants and the apparent activation energy were calculated, and the values found made it possible to determine that the process under study is limited by diffusion. The scientific novelty of the article is the use of humic acid for leaching phosphoric solid waste as opposed to traditional methods. This new method may offer improved efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and a potential alternative solution for the processing of phosphoric waste.
