[13] There has been a significant push to expand the use of phosphogypsum on the national level since 2016, being part of two consecutive five-year plans. [14] Phosphogypsum may require pre-processing to remove contaminants before use.
Calcium sulfate (or calcium sulphate) is the inorganic compound with the formula CaSO 4 and related hydrates. In the form of γ-anhydrite (the anhydrous form), it is used as a desiccant. One particular hydrate is better known as plaster of Paris, and another occurs naturally as the mineral gypsum. It has many uses in industry.
State Farm is seeking a 30% rate hike, claiming its California unit is in financial trouble. Consumer Watchdog alleges the home insurer is hiding earnings.
Gypsum is a soft sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate, with the chemical formula CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O. [4] It is widely mined and is used as a fertilizer and as the main constituent in many forms of plaster, drywall and blackboard or sidewalk chalk.
Fertilizers with additional macronutrients (S, Ca, Mg) may add more numbers to the N-P-K ratio to indicate the amount. The additional numbers are similarly reported in the oxide mass fraction form. For example, a Polish fertilizer labeled "NPK (Ca,S) 4-12-12 (14-29)" has an equivalent of 14% soluble calcium oxide and 29% total sulfur trioxide. [6]

Calcium nitrate with 15,5% nitrogen and 19% calcium, reportedly holding a small share of the nitrogen fertilizer market (4% in 2007). [28] The main straight phosphate fertilizers are the superphosphates: "Single superphosphate" (SSP) consisting of 14–18% P 2 O 5, again in the form of Ca(H 2 PO 4) 2, but also phosphogypsum (CaSO 4 · 2 H 2 O).
