Desulfurization Gypsum (FGD gypsum) (Norton and Rhoton, 2007). Currently, FGD gypsum is increasingly used in agriculture to improve soil nourishment and as a nutrient source for crop production (Intasan et al., 2017; Sutigoolabud et al., 2017; Kaweewong et al., 2018; Inban et al., 2022). Therefore, studying the use of FGD gypsum
of FGD blowdown. Coal quality also impacts gypsum and fly ash production, which is significant because both can be sold commercially or used to cost‐effectively dispose of evaporator brine through mixing and landfilling. We have developed a tool to estimate FGD wastewater volumes, gypsum, and fly ash quality.
The effectiveness of co-additives for improving livestock waste composting (reduction of air pollution and conservation of nutrients) was investigated. Biochar and Flue gas desulphurization gypsum (FGD gypsum) were used to supplement the composting of a mixture of slaughter waste, swine slurry, and sawdust. Different compositions of …

Flue-gas desulphurization (FGD) gypsum is a highly prevalent industrial by-product worldwide, which can be an excellent alternative to natural gypsum due to its high content of CaSO4·2H2O. The preparation of α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate is a high-value pathway for the efficient use of FGD gypsum. Here, a dynamic method, or an improved …
At power plants where the FGD gypsum cannot be diverted prior to disposal and/or where significant quantities cannot be marketed, the utility will not be able to justify paying subsidies to market FGD gypsum If FGD gypsum is to be accepted as a bona fide commodity, the cost of utilizing the material should be borne by the end user—payment of
Below is the Beneficial Use Evaluation of FGD Gypsum in Agriculture and the supporting database. Beneficial Use Evaluation of FGD Gypsum in Agriculture (pdf) (13.15 , March 2023, EPA 530-R-23-004) Flue Gas Desulfurization Gypsum Constituent Database (accdb)
Four rates of FGD gypsum (0, 2.2, 4.4, and 8.9 Mg ha −1) were applied to plots of Coastal Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) that had received application of 13.4 Mg ha −1 poultry litter. Plots with 8.9 Mg ha −1 FGD gypsum but no poultry litter and plots with neither poultry litter nor FGD gypsum were also used. Rainfall simulation was ...

Oman: Oman exported 11.2Mt of natural gypsum from its Port of Salalah in 2023, up by 11% year-on-year from 9.9Mt in 2022. Zawawi Minerals has reported that the main destination for exports was India, which received 5.3Mt (47%) of Oman's exported gypsum for the year. Oman is reportedly the source of 90% of India's gypsum imports.
The formation of FGD gypsum via the multi-step oxidation process aims to remove undesirable contaminants, but this process is not absolute. While the purity of FGD gypsum is higher than mined gypsum, approximately 99.6% compared to 87.1% respectively, heavy metal contamination is still a potential risk (Dontsova et al., 2005).
