• rely on phosphate rock but instead uses biomass as a phosphorus source. Keywords: diaryl phosphates; phosphate esters; phosphate ester synthesis; phosphorus recovery; phytic acid; Introduction Phytic acid (myo-inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate, Scheme 1) is a phosphorus-rich molecule, which is

• pyrophosphate ester intermediate because of its steric hindrance, and the yield of diaryl phosphate was low. Phytic acid extraction and phosphate ester synthesis The extraction of phytic acid from rice bran was based on a study conducted by Ida et al. [1]. As rice bran generally contains rice bran oil, it was
