Uranium Recovery from Phosphates for Self‐Sufficient Nuclear Power in the Eastern Mediterranean
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Production of phosphate fertilizers (PF), without uranium recovery, amounts to dispersing uranium compounds on agricultural fields. These compounds are naturally hidden in phosphate rock deposits prior to processing. Such a dispersion is a cumulative environmental damage, that may become rather catastrophic in few hundred years, under the current rates
