The main environmental impacts of disposing phosphogypsum (PG) in sea water. The Tunisian Chemical Group has been releasing hundreds of tons of PG into the sea each day, posing a threat to the marine ecosystem in the region (Ayadi et al., 2015; Darmoul, 1988; Darmoul et al., 1980; Rabaoui et al., 2015, Rabaoui et al., 2014).
For the moment, the storage quantity of phosphogypsum is still rising as a result of the increasing phosphate fertilizer production to meet the food demand in China.
Phosphogypsum (PG: CaSO4·2H2O) is a waste product generated by the phosphate industry. World production of this waste exceeds 200 million tonnes per year.
Phosphogypsum is enriched in radioactivity; the source of radioactivity comes mainly from 238U and 232 . Uranium Ca in the chemical structure . South African PG contains app reciable amounts of the of 40K, with low activity concentrations .
... Phosphogypsum (PG) is a solid grey, moist, fine-grained by-product powder generated during the production of phosphoric acid which has the chemical formula H 3 PO 4 through the digestion of phosphate rock with sulphuric acid via a wet process technique at a temperature of 75-80 °C.
Phosphogypsum (PG), the main industrial by-product of phosphate fertilizer industry, primarily consists of calcium sulfate dihydrate. However, it contains various impurities with variable quantities depending on the origin of the phosphate rock. These impurities can restrict the reuse of phosphogypsum as a secondary primary resource.
