Radioactivity in future phosphogypsum: New predictions based on estimates of ‘Peak P’ and rock phosphate resources (2022)
Journal Article
Willey, N., & Timbs, P. (2022). Radioactivity in future phosphogypsum: New predictions based on estimates of ‘Peak P’ and rock phosphate resources. Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 244-245, Article 106828. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvrad.2022.106828

Global food supplies currently depend on producing inorganic P fertilisers from a finite reserve of rock phosphate (RP). P fertilisers are themselves significant pollutants but their production from RP also leaves a phosphogypsum (PG) by-product that...
