Abstract: A method for the production of condensed molasses solubles-enriched calcium phosphate includes the step of reacting, in an exothermic reaction, a predetermined amount of a calcium oxide-containing product with a predetermined amount of an aqueous solution of phosphoric acid and a predetermined amount of condensed molasses solubles to produce a reaction mixture containing calcium phosphate and condensed molasses solubles. The method, further, includes allowing the heat produced in the exothermic reaction to evaporate at least a part of the water present in the reaction mixture. The condensed molasses solubles-enriched calcium phosphate product is isolated in loose granular form and has a water content of 0-15% (mass/mass).
