磷是植物生长不可或缺的三大营养元素之一,用于磷肥生产的磷矿石中通常伴生放射性铀元素,并在生产过程中迁移至磷肥产品中,长期施用含铀磷肥可能导致土壤和水源遭受铀污染,进而对生态环境和人体健康构成潜在威胁。介绍了磷肥中铀的来源、铀对土壤及人体的危害、磷肥生产过程中分离提取铀的技术措施。并指出,加强国际合作与交流,制定严格的国际标准和监管措施,才能保障全球农业的可持续发展和人体健康。
Phosphorus is one of the three essential nutrients for plant growth. However, phosphate rock used for phosphate fertilizer production often contains co-occurring radioactive uranium, which migrates to phosphate fertilizer products during the production process. Long-term application of uranium-containing phosphate fertilizers may lead to uranium contamination of soil and water sources, posing potential threats to the ecological environment and human health. The sources of uranium in phosphate fertilizers, the hazards of uranium to soil and human health, and technical measures for separating and extracting uranium during phosphate fertilizer production are introduced. It is pointed out that strengthening international cooperation and exchanges, and establishing strict international standards and regulatory measures are essential to ensure the sustainable development of global agriculture and human health.
