| dc.description.abstract | Most of rock phosphates contain radioactive elements and heavy metals because theyoriginate from phosphate deposits.
The application of these rock phosphates may result to the transfer of these dangerous materials into the ecosystem. Once these
dangerous minerals become readily available for plants uptake and for animal consumptions, negative impacts may prevail, both to
plants and animals esp. human beings.This review focuses on the environmental contamination by radioactive elements and heavy
metals as a result of the application of rock phosphates during farming and the need to develop a mathematical model that can be used
to predictthe associated impacts to the ecosystem. | en_US |
