America is blessed with abundant low-cost natural gypsum. There is also an abundance of flue gas desulfurization gypsum produced as a by-product of coal-fired power plants. As a result, the market for the phosphogypsum generated by the chemical processing of phosphate rock has traditionally been limited.

In a recent study, researchers have shed new light on the multi-stage process by which gypsum grows — and the findings could help develop more efficient ways to manufacture the material. The new research, published in Nature Communications, builds on a body of earlier work trying to sort out how gypsum forms. Prior to 2012, the …

Saint-Gobain Gypsum Mine in Europe. Biodiversity Best Practices. In North America, gypsum is extracted from open-cast mines. The mined gypsum is crushed and screened to remove 'fines' (mainly a mix of clays, silt and gypsum low in purity). The extraction process implies an unavoidable impact on the landscape and the environment.

The mixing of sulfuric acid and phosphate creates gypsum (called phosphogypsum) as a byproduct. Although gypsum can be used for a variety of purposes, the EPA prevents usage of Florida's phosphogypsum because it retains low levels of radioactivity found in the host sediments. At present, phosphogypsum is piled up around the processing plant.
