Phosphogypsum (PG: CaSO ₄·2H ₂O) is a waste product generated by the phosphate industry. World production of this waste exceeds 200 million tonnes per year. PG, discharged into the sea, watercourses or in wilderness stocks, contains toxic elements harmful to ecosystems and human health, including heavy metals and radionuclides, and there is therefore a concern regarding environmental impacts. The concentrations of these elements vary between the regions and the processes used, all of which require particular and specific follow-up after the release of PG and during its use. Phosphogypsum is used in agriculture for soil amendment or as fertilizer, as well as in the brick and cement industry, and in road construction.
