The invention relates to a method for manufacturing an ammonium phosphate fertilizer from a phosphoric acid aqueous solution that has less than 50% POconcentration and is obtained by wet phosphate ore treatment, said phosphoric acid containing traces of cadmium, comprising the following steps: 1. A method for manufacturing an ammonium phosphate fertilizer from a phosphoric acid aqueous solution that has less than 50% POconcentration and is obtained by wet phosphate ore treatment , said phosphoric acid containing traces of cadmium , comprising the following steps:(a) neutralizing said phosphoric acid solution with ammonia up to a molar ratio N/P of between 0.1 and 0.8,(b) reacting said partially neutralized solution with a sulfide source so as to form a cadmium sulfide precipitate,(c) separating said precipitate so as to obtain a refined ammoniated phosphoric acid solution,(d) ammoniating and granulating said refined solution so as to form said fertilizer.2. The method of claim 1 , wherein before the ammoniating-granulating step a complementary ammoniation of the refined solution is implemented so as to obtain a molar ratio N/P determined to obtain a NP or NPK type fertilizer.3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the phosphoric acid solution is between 20 and 50% PO claim 1 , preferentially between 25 and 45% PO.4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio N/P during the step (b) of precipitation of cadmium sulfide is between 0.2 and 0.6 claim 1 , preferentially between 0.3 and 0.5.5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sulfide source is used in excess with respect to the quantity of cadmium present in the phosphoric acid solution.6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sulfide source introduced implements between 3 and 15 kg equivalent solid NaHS per ton of PO.7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sulfide source is an aqueous NaHS solution or any other sulfide source having sufficient solubility in phosphoric acid to reach the stoichiometric ...
