According to technical characteristicsstale phosphogypsum, placed on the dump of the
AmmofosMaxam mineral fertilizer plant, meets the requirements of TU 113-08-418-94
"Phosphogypsum for agriculture" grade No. 2 and therefore can be used for chemical land
reclamation.
Forspecimens of stagnant phosphogypsum (wastes of Ammofos-Maxam OJSC) the
specific effective activity of natural radionuclides was determined, on the basis of which the
sanitary and epidemiological conclusion was given that phosphogypsum samples correspond to
SP No. 202 of 03.02.2012. “Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for ensuring radiation
safety” and phosphogypsum can be used in economic activities without restrictions. For
phosphogypsum samples, toxicological parameters were determined, which showed that the
toxicity value of the aqueous phosphogypsum filtrate in the experiment on laboratory animals
(white mice) corresponds to the 4th hazard class. The total toxicity index of the phosphogypsum
sample is 7.53 units, which according to GOST 30774-2001 classifies this waste as hazard class 5
(non-hazardous).
The total area of solonetzSoils in the Republic of Uzbekistan make up more than 2 million
hectares, of which about 50% of the irrigated lands of Khorezm and the Republic of
Karakalpakistan were subjected to salinization, salinization, and loss of nutrient reserves. For this
reason, crop yields on these lands decreased by almost 2 times.
To increase crop yieldson solonetzic and saline soils, it is necessary to increase calcium
reserves in them by adding calcium-containing chemical ameliorants (gypsum, phosphogypsum).
Under the conditions of the abovementioned viloyats, the most effective chemical reclamant is
phosphogypsum, obtained as an industrial waste of phosphorus production. The Ammophos-
Maxam plant in Almalyk has accumulated a huge amount (over 60 million tons) of
phosphogypsum, which consists mainly of calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO4 ∙ 2H2O),
phosphogypsum also contains phosphates (1.3 - 2.9% ) [20,21]
The main leaders in the production of phosphate raw materials and products made from it
are the United States (43.97 million tons), China (29.0 million tons), Morocco (23.59 million tons)
