About us
Austure Industries is an Australian-based company focuses on innovative chemical manufacturing, specialising in phosphate chemicals. Our mission is to deliver sustainable, cost-effective, and innovative solutions throughout the global supply chain. Our expertise encompasses three core areas: the distribution of essential phosphate feed additives, fertilisers, and related phosphate-based chemicals; the development and implementation of advanced technological processes for producing phosphoric acid and downstream products; and the design and supply of specialised equipment for mining and chemical processing, particularly for rock phosphate operations.
Founded by a team of experienced chemists with deep industry roots and robust connections across Australia, China and Southeast Asia, Austure Industries leverages scientific expertise and practical industrial insight to achieve tangible results. We are committed to building a collaborative network of phosphate producers who share our vision for an environmentally responsible future—one that emphasizes eco-friendly processes, superior product quality, and cost efficiency.
Through innovation, strategic partnerships, and integrity, Austure Industries is dedicated to shaping the next generation of sustainable phosphate production.
Sustainability Innovations
Our research has led to several technological breakthroughs focused on green energy, carbon capture, off-grid solutions, and the utilization of low-grade phosphate ore.
Our hero lab-to-plant processes that has achieved industrial scale are:
-
Extraction of fluoride from merchant grade or ex-filter phosphoric acid through precipitation to avoid thermal cost.
-
Nano membrane filtration coupled with bipolar membrane to purify phosphoric acid.
-
High purity monocalcium phosphate and dicalcium phosphate manufacturing process utilising phosphoric acid concentrations as low as 25% P2O5.
-
Incorporating bipolar membrane and MVR evaporator system to reduce wet process reactor rock phosphate grade requirement from 30% to 27%.
Other pilot scale achievements pending further development into industrial scaling:
-
Novel process to manufacture DCP/MCP from electricity using bipolar membrane systems, from low grade rock phosphate.
-
A method to use dissolved Calcium ion from the rock phosphate ore for synthesis of DCP/MCP, avoiding requirement of CaO or CaCO3 input.
-
Two-step filtration system to extract pure white gypsum from wet process phosphoric acid reactor.
-
Green ammonia from biomass, to be utilised in DAP and MAP manufacturing
-
A process to manufacture high water-soluble TSP utilising <25% rock phosphate ore and electricity.
