| Abstract | The weathering of phosphorus-bearing mineral powder (PBMP) and calcium phosphate (CP) by Aspergillus niger was compared, and the mechanism involved was analyzed for the comprehensive utilization of PBMP. The concentration of water-soluble phosphorus (WSP), Mg$^{2+}$, and Ca$^{2+}$ at different culture times, microstructures of particles, and mineral compositions was examined by ultraviolet-visible spectrometer (UV), atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Results showed that the change in the concentrations of WSP, Mg$^{2+}$, and Ca$^{2+}$ were related to the growth of A. niger and the different mineral compositions. Compared with CP, PBMP was weathered harder by fungi. Traces of the weathered mineral were found through SEM. CP not only showed traces of erosion damage but also appeared as a rhombohedron-like substance. The XRD test indicated that the weathering minerals can form water calcium oxalate. Further analysis revealed that the mechanism of PBMP and CP weathering by A. niger was the collaborative result of mycelium biomechanical effects and the acid-soluble role of acidic metabolites. The phosphorus dissolution rate of PBMP after 20 d was 46.83%, whereas that of CP after 12 d was 91.01%. The findings of this study are significant to the effective use of waste PBMP and to the exploitation of low-grade phosphate rock resources. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
