Abstract
Developing mitigation mechanisms for eutrophication caused by the uncontrolled release of nutrients is in the interest of the scientific community. Adsorption, being operationally simple and economical with no significant secondary pollution, has proven to be a feasible technology for resource recovery. However, the utility of adsorption often lies in the availability of effective adsorbents. In this regard, polymer-based nanocomposite (PNC) adsorbents have been highly acclaimed by researchers because of their high surface area, multiple functional groups, biodegradability, and ease of large-scale production. This review paper elaborates on the functionality, adsorption mechanisms, and factors that affect the adsorption and adsorption-desorption cycles of PNC adsorbents toward nutrient resources. Moreover, this review gives insight into the application of recovered nutrient resources in soil amendment.

Abstract
Herein, a fixed-bed high-capacity/high-rate (HC/HR) hybrid column was developed using commercial ion-exchange beads (IEBs) and ion-exchange fibers (IEFs). The as-fabricated HC/HR hybrid column exhibited excellent breakthrough bed volume (BV) and utilization efficiency of capacity (UEC) at a high service flow rate (SFR) for the adsorption of Cd(II). The IEBs displayed a high adsorption capacity of 235.2 ± 9.8 mg g-1 and slow adsorption kinetics (k2 = 0.0001 g mg-1 min-1) for the sorption of Cd(II); meanwhile, the IEFs showed a maximum adsorption capacity of only 146.3 ± 7.5 mg g-1, which is lower than that of the IEBs, but fast kinetics (k2 = 0.0130 g mg-1 min-1). At an SFR of 104.23 BV h-1, the HC/HR hybrid column showed excellent performance for the sorption of Cd(II), having a high breakthrough BV of 1009.11 and a UEC of 92.86%; these values are much higher than those of the IEB-packed column. Furthermore, at an increased SFR (318.47 BV h-1), the HC/HR hybrid column maintained its high performance, demonstrating a breakthrough BV of 568.80 and UEC of 83.90%. The regeneration experiment indicates that 97% of the initial capacity was retained. Thus, the HC/HR hybrid column could easily be applied to existing column systems and shows promising performance in ion-exchange processes.

Abstract
Fertilizer runoff is a global nuisance that disrupts biogeochemical cycles of nitrogen and phosphorus. We perform techno-economic and life cycle analyses of selected approaches for enabling a circular economy of phosphorus. We consider four schemes: capturing P with ion-exchange resins followed by precipitation, interception by wetland and recovery in char after biomass pyrolysis, removal by bioreactor and recovery in char after bioreactor substrate pyrolysis, and using legacy phosphorus accumulated in a saturated wetland to grow crops by wetlaculture. For each system, we analyze the mass flow, calculate the degree of circularity, and examine the feasibility by techno-economic and life cycle analyses. We find that although ion exchange outperforms the others, the associated economic and emissions burden are too high. Approaches that rely on wetlands are most economically attractive and can have lower impact. However, without policy interventions, the linear economy of phosphorus is likely to remain economically most attractive.

Amazon raw clay as a precursor of a clay-based adsorbent: experimental study and DFT analysis for the adsorption of Basic Yellow 2 dye.

Abstract
A clay-based adsorbent (CBA) was purified from a sustainable precursor (raw clay, RC), which was obtained from the Amazon region in Brazil. The CBA was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Brunauer-Emmet-Teller surface area (SBET, RC = 23.386 m2.g-1, CBA = 33.020 m2.g-1), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), cation exchange capacity (CEC, CBA = 44.75 cmol/kg), and point of zero charge analyses (pHPZC, CBA = 2.20). Subsequently, CBA was used to adsorb basic yellow 2 (BY2) dye from aqueous solutions. A CBA dosage (1 g/L), initial concentration of dye (C0 = 15 mg/L), and pH (5.6) were ideal conditions for the BY2 dye removal of ~ 98%. The BY2 kinetics was better represented by the pseudo-first-order (PFO) model while the BY2 equilibrium was well represented by the Sips model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of qms = 18.04 mg/g at 28 °C. The negative values of ΔG° and ΔH° showed that the studied process is spontaneous and exothermic, while the values of isosteric heat (∆Hst, -16 to -20 kJ/mol) suggest a predominance of physical interactions. The molecular chemical reactivity of BY2 was investigated using quantum chemical descriptors calculated based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) optimization of the dye molecule, and the results revealed a large energy gap value (4.3900 eV) and considerable chemical hardness (η = 2.1950 eV). Therefore, the correlation between DFT and experimental results consistently sustains that BY2 dye tends to be adsorbed on the CBA surface by electrostatic interactions, thus, this is the possible adsorption mechanism of this process.

Abstract
Iron-coated sand (ICS) is a by-product from drinking water treatment made of sand coated with ferric iron (hydr)oxides. It is considered a suitable material for large-scale measures for phosphate removal from natural and agricultural waters to prevent eutrophication. Previous studies demonstrated that the residence time of water must be very long to reach equilibrium partitioning between phosphate and ICS but specifics for application are missing. First, SEM-EDX images were used to support the conceptual assumption that P adsorption inside the coating is a transport-limited process. Second, a conceptual model of phosphate adsorption was proposed considering two types of sites: one type with fast adsorption kinetics and reaching equilibrium with the percolating solution, and another type for which adsorption is also reversible but described by pseudo-first-order kinetics. The latter is conceived to account for transport-limited adsorption in the interior of the coating while the former fraction of sites is assumed to be easily accessible and located close to the grain surface. Third, the kinetics of phosphate adsorption on ICS were quantitatively determined to describe and predict phosphate retention in filters under various flow conditions. The model was calibrated and validated with long-term column experiments, which lasted for 3500 h to approach equilibrium on the slowly reacting sites. The model reproduced the outflowing phosphate concentrations: the pronounced increase after a few pore volumes and the slow increase over the remaining part of the experiment. The parameterized model was also able to predict the time evolution of phosphate concentrations in the outflow of column experiments with different flow velocities, flow interruption, and in desorption experiments. The equilibrium partition coefficient for the experimental conditions was identified as 28.1 L/g-Fe at pH 6.8 and a phosphate concentration of 1.7 mg-P / L. The optimized first-order mass transfer coefficient for the slow adsorption process was 1.56 10-4 h-1, implying that the slow adsorption process has a time scale of several months. However, based on the parameterized model, the slow adsorption process accounted for 95.5% of the equilibrium adsorption capacity, emphasizing the potential relevance of this process for practical applications. The implications for the design, operation, and lifespan of ICS filters are exemplarily illustrated for different scenarios.

Abstract
The demand to control eutrophication in water bodies and the risk of phosphorus scarcity have prompted the search for treatment technologies for phosphorus recovery. In this study, ball-milled Ca-loaded biochar (BMCa@BC) composites were prepared with CaO and corn stover biochar as raw materials by a new ball-milling method to recover phosphorus from water bodies. Experimental results demonstrated that BMCa@BC could efficiently adsorb phosphorus in water bodies with an excellent sorption capacity of 329 mg P/g. Hydrogen bonding, electrostatic attraction, complexation, and surface precipitation were involved in adsorption process. In addition, phosphorus recovered by BMCa@BC had high bioavailability (86.7 % of TP) and low loss (3.3 % of TP) and was a potential slow-release fertilizer. P-laden BMCa@BC significantly enhanced seed germination and growth in planting experiments, proving that it could be used as a substitute for P-based fertilizer. After five cycles of regeneration, BMCa@BC still showed good adsorption recovery and the P-enriched desorption solution could be recovered as Ca-P products with the fertilizer value. Overall, BMCa@BC has good cost-effectiveness and practical applicability in phosphorus recovery. This provides a new way to recover and reuse phosphorus effectively.

Abstract
Phosphates in high concentrations are harmful pollutants for the environment, and new and cheap solutions are currently needed for phosphate removal from polluted liquid media. Iron oxide nanoparticles show a promising capacity for removing phosphates from polluted media and can be easily separated from polluted media under an external magnetic field. However, they have to display a high surface area allowing high removal pollutant capacity while preserving their magnetic properties. In that context, the reproducible synthesis of magnetic iron oxide raspberry-shaped nanostructures (RSNs) by a modified polyol solvothermal method has been optimized, and the conditions to dope the latter with cobalt, zinc, and aluminum to improve the phosphate adsorption have been determined. These RSNs consist of oriented aggregates of iron oxide nanocrystals, providing a very high saturation magnetization and a superparamagnetic behavior that favor colloidal stability. Finally, the adsorption of phosphates as a function of pH, time, and phosphate concentration has been studied. The undoped and especially aluminum-doped RSNs were demonstrated to be very effective phosphate adsorbents, and they can be extracted from the media by applying a magnet.

Abstract
Reverse osmosis concentrate (ROC) produced as the by-product of the reverse osmosis process consists of a high load of organics (macro and micro) that potentially cause eco-toxicological effects in the environment. Previous studies focused on the removal of such compounds using oxidation, adsorption, and membrane-based treatments. However, these methods were not always efficient and formed toxic by-products. The impact of ion-exchange resin (IEX) (Purolite®A502PS) was studied in a micro-filtration-IEX hybrid system to remove organics from ROC for varying doses of Purolite® A502PS (5-20 g/L) at a flux of 36 L/m2h. The purolite particles in the membrane reactor reduced membrane fouling, evidenced by the reduction of transmembrane pressure (TMP), by pre-adsorbing the organics, and by mechanically scouring the membrane. The dissolved organic carbon was reduced by 45-60%, out of which 48-81% of the hydrophilics were removed followed by the hydrophobics and low molecular weight compounds (LMWs). This was based on fluorescence excitation-emission matrix and liquid chromatography-organic carbon detection. Negatively charged and hydrophobic organic compounds were preferentially removed by resin. Long-term experiments with different daily replacements of resin are suggested to minimize the resin requirements and energy consumption.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic Fe3O4 particles have been synthesized by solvothermal method, and a layer of dense silica sol polymer is coated on the surface prepared by sol-gel technique; then La(OH)3 covered the surface of silica sol polymer in an irregular shape by controlled in situ growth technology. These magnetic materials are characterized by TEM, FT-IR, XRD, SEM, EDS and VSM; the results show that La(OH)3 nanoparticles have successfully modified on Fe3O4 surface. The prepared Fe3O4@La(OH)3 inorganic polymer has been used as adsorbent to remove phosphate efficiently. The effects of solution pH, adsorbent dosage and co-existing ions on phosphate removal are investigated. Moreover, the adsorption kinetic equation and isothermal model are used to describe the adsorption performance of Fe3O4@La(OH)3. It was observed that Fe3O4@La(OH)3 exhibits a fast equilibrium time of 20 min, high phosphate removal rate (>95.7%), high sorption capacity of 63.72 mgP/g, excellent selectivity for phosphate in the presence of competing ions, under the conditions of phosphate concentration 30 mgP/L, pH = 7, adsorbent dose 0.6 g/L and room temperature. The phosphate adsorption process by Fe3O4@La(OH)3 is best described by the pseudo-second-order equation and Langmuir isotherm model. Furthermore, the real samples and reusability experiment indicate that Fe3O4@La(OH)3 could be regenerated after desorption, and 92.78% phosphate removing remained after five cycles. Therefore, La(OH)3 nanoparticles deposited on the surface of monodisperse Fe3O4 microspheres have been synthesized for the first time by a controlled in-situ growth method. Experiments have proved that Fe3O4@La(OH)3 particles with fast separability, large adsorption capacity and easy reusability can be used as a promising material in the treatment of phosphate wastewater or organic pollutants containing phosphoric acid functional group.

Abstract
Activated alumina (Al2O3) has been widely used to remove aqueous anionic pollutants such as phosphate for preventing the eutrophication phenomenon. While Al2O3, as a fine powder material, cannot be stably packed into continuous flow treatment, which limits its practical applications. Herein, we proposed a new strategy in which Al2O3 was encapsulated by calcium alginate (CA) to fabricate Al2O3/CA composite, which has relatively large particle size and can be suitable for application in columns. The BET surface area of Al2O3/CA increased to 51.73 m2/g compared with 37.31 m2/g of Al2O3. The maximum adsorption capacity of phosphate on Al2O3/CA was estimated at 1.92-fold compared with that of pure Al2O3 by Langmuir fitting. The main mechanism of phosphate adsorption was the formation of aluminum phosphate precipitation. Moreover, the column studies showed that the adsorption of phosphate on Al2O3/CA was affected by the amount of outer calcium alginate, bed height, influent flow rates and phosphate concentration. This study demonstrated that Al2O3/CA composite has better adsorption capacity and can be used in the dynamic adsorption system as a promising approach for phosphate removal from water.

Abstract
Phosphate rocks are an irreplaceable resource to produce fertilizers, but their availability will not be enough to meet the increasing demands of agriculture for food production. At the same time, the accumulation of phosphorous discharged by municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is one of the main causes of eutrophication. In a perspective of circular economy, WWTPs play a key role in phosphorous management. Indeed, phosphorus removal and recovery from WWTPs can both reduce the occurrence of eutrophication and contribute to meeting the demand for phosphorus-based fertilizers. Phosphorous removal and recovery are interconnected phases in WWTP with the former generally involved in the mainstream treatment, while the latter on the side streams. Indeed, by reducing phosphorus concentration in the WWTP side streams, a further improvement of the overall phosphorus removal from the WWTP influent can be obtained. Many studies and patents have been recently focused on treatments and processes aimed at the removal and recovery of phosphorous from wastewater and sewage sludge. Notably, new advances on biological and material sciences are constantly put at the service of conventional or unconventional wastewater treatments to increase the phosphorous removal efficiency and/or reduce the treatment costs. Similarly, many studies have been devoted to the development of processes aimed at the recovery of phosphorus from wastewaters and sludge to produce fertilizers, and a wide range of recovery percentages is reported as a function of the different technologies applied (from 10-25% up to 70-90% of the phosphorous in the WWTP influent). In view of forthcoming and inevitable regulations on phosphorous removal and recovery from WWTP streams, this review summarizes the main recent advances in this field to provide the scientific and technical community with an updated and useful tool for choosing the best strategy to adopt during the design or upgrading of WWTPs.

Abstract
Phosphorus is an essential mineral for the growth of plants which is supplied in the form of fertilizers. Phosphorus remains an inseparable part of developing agrarian economics. Phosphorus enters waterways through three different sources: domestic, agricultural, and industrial sources. Rainfall is the main cause for washing away a large amount of phosphates from farm soils into nearby waterways. The surplus of phosphorus in the water sources cause eutrophication and degradation of the habitat with an adverse effect on aquatic life and plants. Phosphate elimination is necessary to control eutrophication in water sources. Among the different methods reported for the removal and recovery of phosphorus: ion exchange, precipitation, crystallization, and others, adsorption standout as a sustainable solution. The current review offers a comparative assessment of the literature on novel materials and techniques for the removal of phosphorus. Herein, different adsorbents, their behaviors, mechanisms, and capacity of materials are discussed in detail. The adsorbents are categorized under different heads: iron-based, silica-alumina-based, calcium-based, biochar-based wherein the metal and metal oxides are employed in phosphorus removal. The ideal attribute of adsorbent will be the utilization of spent adsorbents as a phosphate plant food and a soil conditioner in agriculture. The review provides the perspective on the current research with potential challenges and directives for possible research in the field.

Abstract
Ammonium removal from drinking water to protect human and environmental health is one of the major global concerns. This study evaluates the performance of Purolite C100E, a commercial cation exchange resin, in eliminating ammonium in synthetic and real contaminated groundwater. The results demonstrate that the pH operation range of the resin for better ammonium removal is 3 to 8. Lower ammonium removal at low and high pH occurred due to competition from H+ and loss of ammonium as ammonia gas, respectively. Equilibrium data of ammonium removal fitted both the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models with the maximum Langmuir ion exchange capacities for initial ammonium concentrations of 10-200 mg/L and 50-2000 mg/L, reaching 18.37 mg/g and 40.16 mg/g, respectively. The presence of co-ions in the water reduced the ammonium removal efficiencies slightly (< 12%) in the order Mg2+ > Ca2+ > K+. The higher affinity of ammonium to adsorbent is due to its lower hydrated ionic radius and H-bonding. The maximum exchange capacity in the fluidized bed studies of the original Purolite C100E (bed height 27 cm, resin weight 75 g, initial ammonium concentration 17.4 mg/L, filtration velocity 0.5 m/h) was 10.48 mg/g. It progressively reduced slightly after three regeneration cycles to 8.79 mg/g. The column breakthrough data satisfactorily fitted the Thomas model. A household filter cartridge packed with 4 kg Purolite C100E (80 cm height) and operated at a filtration velocity of 1.9 m/h in Vietnam successfully reduced the initial 6 mg NH4+/L in groundwater (after sand filter pre-treatment) to well below the Vietnam drinking water standard (3 mg/L-QCVN 01:2009/BYT) continuously for 1 week, suggesting that such a filter can be adopted in rural areas to successfully remove ammonium from groundwater.

Abstract
Phosphate is the main cause of eutrophication. Layered double hydroxides (LDH) are considered to be promising phosphate adsorbents due to their high affinity and large capacity. In this study, we partially intercalated zwitterionic glycine and alanine into Cl-LDH (corresponding to MgAl-LDH with interlayer anion Cl−) and synthesized efficient inorganic–organic nanohybrids for phosphate removal with kinetic advantages. Gly-Cl-LDH, Ala-Cl-LDH and Cl-LDH were characterized, and their phosphate adsorption performances under the influence of environment factors (e.g., solution pH, coexisting anions, contact time and phosphate concentration) were investigated. The results show that Gly-Cl-LDH and Ala-Cl-LDH had larger specific surface areas and larger interlayer spaces than Cl-LDH, and exhibited better adsorption performance at a lower pH and better adsorption selectivity against SO42−. Kinetic experiments indicated that Gly-Cl-LDH and Ala-Cl-LDH can reduce phosphate concentrations to a lower level in a shorter time. The pseudo-second-order kinetic constants of Gly-Cl-LDH and Ala-Cl-LDH were 1.27 times and 3.17 times of Cl-LDH, respectively (R2 > 0.996). The maximum adsorption capacities derived from a Langmuir model of Cl-LDH, Gly-Cl-LDH and Ala-Cl-LDH are 63.2 mg-P/L, 55.8 mg-P/L and 58.2 mg-P/L, respectively, which showed superiority over the prevailing phosphate adsorbents. This research provides highly efficient adsorbents for removing phosphate from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
The porous polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/Al2O3 composite by supporting activated alumina on the cross-linked network of PVA has been successfully prepared and its property for the removal of phosphate in aqueous solution was also evaluated. The structure of the PVA/Al2O3 was examined by scanning electron microscopy. It showed that the activated alumina particles with an average size of 1 μm were evenly dispersed and fixed in the cross-linked network structure of PVA. The effects of adsorption time, solution temperature, pH, initial concentration of phosphate, Al2O3 loading rate, dosage and coexisting ions on the phosphate removal were further studied. The results showed that the highest removal phosphate efficiency of 95% can be obtained with the Al2O3 loading rate of PVA/Al2O3 being 60 wt.% at pH of 4 at 30 °C. The maximum adsorption capacities of PO43- by PVA/Al2O3 suggested by the Langmuir isothermal model was 10.12 mg/g. The adsorption process of phosphate can be fit well with a pseudo-second-order model (R2 = 0.9900). The PVA/Al2O3 composite exhibited a high selective adsorption of phosphate in the presence of commonly coexisting anions except the obvious effect of CO32- in water. Meanwhile, the PVA/Al2O3 composite can be easily separated and recovered due to the granulation of adsorbent. PVA/Al2O3 composite also shows the excellent properties of regeneration and recycling use with the removal efficiency of phosphate was 88.93%, 88.38% and 94.34% after three cycles, respectively. It can be proposed that the PVA/Al2O3 composite is a promising recyclable adsorbent for removing phosphate at low concentration from aqueous solution.

Abstract
AbstractCommercial resin microbeads are widely applied in ion exchange and extraction. Here, a single anion-selective and phosphate binding resin microbead (FerrIX™) is mounted into an epoxy membrane and investigated by 4-electrode membrane voltammetry and membrane impedance spectroscopy. Anion transport properties are observed to dominate associated with three distinct potential domains: (I) a low bias ohmic potential domain (dominant at high electrolyte concentration), (II) a concentration polarisation potential domain, and (III) an over-limiting potential domain. Voltammetric responses show transient diffusion-migration features at higher scan rates and quasi-steady state features at lower scan rates. Inherent microbead conductivity is shown to be linked to two resistive elements, electrolyte concentration dependent and independent, in series. The effects of phosphate binding are revealed as transient pattern in impedance spectroscopy data. Preliminary data suggest phosphate concentration-dependent peak features in the imaginary impedance versus frequency plot due to phosphate binding into the microbead.

Abstract
Due to the existence-threatening risk to aquatic life and entire ecosystems, the removal of oxyanions such as sulfate and phosphate from anthropogenic wastewaters, such as municipal effluents and acid mine drainage, is inevitable. Furthermore, phosphorus is an indispensable resource for worldwide plant fertilization, which cannot be replaced by any other substance. This raises phosphate to one of the most important mineral resources worldwide. Thus, efficient recovery of phosphate is essential for ecosystems and the economy. To face the harsh acidic conditions, such as for acid mine drainage, an adsorber material with a high chemical resistivity is beneficial. Poly(melamine-co-formaldehyde) (PMF) sustains these conditions whilst its very high amount of nitrogen functionalities (up to 53.7 wt.%) act as efficient adsorption sides. To increase adsorption capacities, PMF was synthesized in the form of mesoporous particles using a hard-templating approach yielding specific surface areas up to 409 m2/g. Different amounts of silica nanospheres were utilized as template and evaluated for the adsorption of sulfate and phosphate ions. The adsorption isotherms were validated by the Langmuir model. Due to their properties, the PMF particles possessed outperforming maximum adsorption capacities of 341 and 251 mg/g for phosphate and sulfate, respectively. Furthermore, selective adsorption of sulfate from mixed solutions of phosphate and sulfate was found for silica/PMF hybrid particles.

Abstract
It is urgent and essential to remove antimony from wastewater due to its potential carcinogenicity. In this paper, a nano ferric oxide (NFO) adsorbent was synthesized in a one-step low temperature calcination (150 °C) process. It presents a surprising self-acidification behavior, could automatically adjust the pH to around 4 from different intimal pH values (4-9), which enable it to efficiently remove more than 99% of Sb(V) from wastewater in a wide pH range. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis proved that the self-acidification function was originated from the hydrolyzation of surface Fe atoms on ferric oxide nanoparticles. The maximum adsorption capacity of this adsorbent is 78.1 mg/g which is 2-3 times higher than that of the samples obtained at higher temperatures (250 °C and 350 °C), and also its adsorption kinetic constant is ten times higher, which can be attributed to the larger surface areas and smaller sizes of ferric oxides synthesized at 150 °C. In the actual wastewater treatment, the effluent's concentration after treatment can be maintained below the instrument detection limit even under low initial antimony concentration. We believe that this new adsorbent has great potential in the practical application in the treatment of Sb polluted wastewaters due to its simple synthesis, high efficiency, and low cost.

Abstract
As an essential element for life, phosphorus (P) is very important for organisms. However, excessive P in water and sediment can cause eutrophication, which poses a potential risk to drinking water safety and the sustainability of aquatic ecosystems. Therefore, effective phosphorus-control in water and sediment is the key strategy to control eutrophication. Iron-based materials exhibit high efficiency for P immobilization due to their strong affinity with P, low cost, easy availability, and environmentally friendliness. They are promising materials for controlling P in application. This work comprehensively summarizes the recent advances on P immobilization in water and sediment by different iron-based materials, including iron (hydr)oxides, iron salts, zero-valent iron and iron-loaded materials. This review is focused on the mechanism of the processes and how they are impacted by major influencing factors. The combination of iron-containing materials with other assisting materials is a good strategy to enhance P-fixation efficiency and selectivity. Finally, the current challenges and prospects of P-control technologies based on iron-containing materials are proposed. This review provides a systemic theoretical and experimental foundation for P-immobilization in water and sediment using iron-based materials.

Abstract
The process of phosphate desorption from soils is difficult to measure using stirred batch techniques because of the accumulation of desorbed ions in a bathing solution. To accurately measure the apparent rate coefficient of phosphate desorption from soils, it is necessary to remove the desorbed ions. In this study, a novel hybrid (i.e., iron oxide coated) anion exchange resin was used as a sink to study long-term (seven days) P desorption kinetics in intensively managed agricultural soils in the Midwestern U.S. (total phosphorus (TP): 196–419 mg/kg). The phosphate desorption kinetics in the hybrid anion exchange resin method were compared with those in the other conventional batch desorption method with pure anion exchange resins or without any sink. The extent of P desorption in the hybrid resin methods was >50% of total desorbed phosphate in the other methods. The initial kinetic rate estimated in the pseudo-second-order kinetic model was also highest (3.03–31.35 mg/(g·hr)) in the hybrid resin method when the same soil system was compared. This is because adsorbed P in the hybrid resins was nearly irreversible. The hybrid anion exchange resin might be a new and ideal sink in measuring the P desorption process in soils and sediments.

Abstract
Removal of phosphorus (P) from municipal wastewater is of vital importance to the control of eutrophication in receiving freshwater bodies. Typical cations such as Ca2+ and Mg2+ generally exist in municipal wastewater, and they may affect the sorption behavior and mechanism of iron oxide-based materials for aqueous phosphate (HxPO4x - 3, x = 0, 1, 2, or 3 depending on solution pH). To better apply iron oxide-containing materials as adsorbents to eliminate HxPO4x - 3 in municipal wastewater, a hydrous ferric oxide (HFEO) was prepared and characterized at first and then the impact of coexisting Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the uptake of HxPO4x - 3 by HFEO was studied. The results showed that, without coexisting Ca2+ and Mg2+, the kinetic data for HxPO4x - 3 sorption onto HFEO were better described by the Elovich model (R2 = 0.953) than the pseudo-second-order (R2 = 0.838) and pseudo-first-order (R2 = 0.641) models, and the isotherm data were fitted better with the Dubinin-Radushkevich (R2 = 0.966) and Freundlich (R2 = 0.953) models than with the Langmuir (R2 = 0.924) model. The ligand exchange of the Fe-bound hydroxyl group with HxPO4x - 3 and the generation of Fe-O-P bonding played a key role in the uptake of HxPO4x - 3 by HFEO in the absence of Ca2+ and Mg2+. Coexisting Ca2+ and Mg2+ greatly improved the adsorptive removal of HxPO4x - 3 by HFEO, including the adsorption capacity and initial adsorption rate. According to the Langmuir isotherm equation, the predicted maximum HxPO4x - 3 adsorption capacity for HFEO at pH 7 in the presence of 2 mmol/L Ca2+ (24.7 mg P/g) or 2 mmol/L Mg2+ (18.4 mg P/g) was much larger than that without coexisting Ca2+ and Mg2+ (10.7 mg P/g). The formation of aqueous CaHPO40 and MgHPO40 species firstly and then the adsorption of the formed CaHPO40 and MgHPO40 species on the HFEO surface to generate the HPO42--bridged ternary complexes (i.e., Fe(OPO3H)Ca+ and Fe(OPO3H)Mg+) had an important role in the improvement of HxPO4x - 3 adsorption onto HFEO by coexisting Ca2+ and Mg2+.

Abstract
Chemical precipitation with the addition of ferric chloride is commonly used to remove phosphorus from wastewater. However, since its application also involves several disadvantages, alternative solutions are required. The present paper shows the results of a full-scale experimental work aimed at evaluating the efficiency of the ion exchange process using a polymeric anion exchange resin impregnated with aluminum ions in the removal of phosphorus from wastewater. The study compared the results obtained through this process with chemical precipitation, considering both technical and economic issues. At the same dosage of 6 L/hour and influent concentration (about 6 mg/L), total removal efficiency of 95% and 78% (including also that occurring in the mechanical and biological processes) was achieved by means of the anion exchange process and chemical precipitation, respectively. However, in the latter case, this value was insufficient to ensure consistent compliance with the limit of 2 mg/L Ptot set on the effluent; to achieve this goal, the ferric chloride dosage had to be raised to 12 L/hour, thus increasing the related costs. Furthermore, the anion exchange process generated a lower sludge production. Therefore, the ion exchange process represents a valid alternative to chemical precipitation for P removal from wastewater.

Abstract
Arsenic contamination of drinking water is a serious water quality problem in many parts of the world. In this study, a low-cost manganese oxide ore from Vietnam (Vietnamese manganese oxide (VMO)) was firstly evaluated for its performance in arsenate (As(V)) removal from water. This material contains both Mn (25.6%) and Fe (16.1%) mainly in the form of cryptomelane and goethite minerals. At the initial As(V) concentration of 0.5 mg/L, the adsorption capacity of original VMO determined using the Langmuir model was 0.11 mg/g. The modified VMOs produced by coating VMO with iron oxide (Fea-VMO) and zirconium oxide (Zra-VMO) at 110 °C and 550 °C achieved the highest As(V) adsorption capacity when compared to three other methods of VMO modifications. Langmuir maximum adsorption capacities of Fea-VMO and Zra-VMO at pH 7.0 were 2.19 mg/g and 1.94 mg/g, respectively, nearly twenty times higher than that of the original VMO. Batch equilibrium adsorption data fitted well to the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin models and batch kinetics adsorption data to pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order, and Elovich models. The increase of pH progressively from 3 to 10 reduced As(V) adsorption with a maximum reduction of 50-60% at pH 10 for both original and modified VMOs. The co-existing oxyanions considerably weakened the As(V) removal efficiency because they competed with As(V) anions. The competition order was PO43- > SiO32- > CO32- > SO42-. The characteristics of the original and modified VMOs evaluated using SEM, FTIR, XRD, XRF, surface area, and zeta potential explained the As(V) adsorption behaviour.

Abstract
Sterile phosphate (SP) was investigated for phosphorus removal from wastewater using batch adsorption experiments. The novel adsorbent is a mining by-product obtained from the phosphate mining plants having a strong affinity with phosphorus ions present in wastewater. The results of the batch adsorption experiments indicated that 30 min of contact time between the adsorbent and wastewater was sufficient for attaining equilibrium. The phosphorus removal from wastewater increased with increasing initial phosphorus concentration, adsorbent dose and temperature, while it decreased with increasing initial pH values. The maximum phosphorus removal efficiency was noted to be 94.4%. It was achieved in slightly acidic conditions (pH = 4), with an adsorbent dose and initial phosphorus concentration of 3 g L-1 and 20 mg L-1, respectively, and at room temperature. Kinetic analysis showed that phosphorus adsorption onto sterile phosphate was best fitted with the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The adsorption equilibrium data fitted well to the Langmuir model equation, indicating monolayer coverage of the adsorbent. The adsorption capacity calculated from the Langmuir model equation was found to be 7.962 mg g-1. Comparing with some industrial products and natural mineral adsorbents, sterile phosphate was found to be the most efficient adsorbent for phosphorus removal from wastewater.

Abstract
A magnesia-pullulan (MgOP) composite has been developed to remove phosphate from a synthetic solution. In the present study, the removal of phosphate by MgOP was evaluated in both a batch and dynamic system. The batch experiments investigated the initial pH effect on the phosphate removal efficiency from pH 3 to 12 and the effect of co-existing anions. In addition, the adsorption isotherms, thermodynamics, and kinetics were also investigated. The results from the batch experiments indicate that MgOP has encouraging performance for the adsorption of phosphate, while the initial pH value (3-12) had a negligible influence on the phosphate removal efficiency. Analysis of the adsorption thermodynamics demonstrated that the phosphate removal process was endothermic and spontaneous. Investigations into the dynamics of the phosphate removal process were carried out using a fixed bed of MgOP, and the resulting breakthrough curves were used to describe the column phosphate adsorption process at various bed masses, volumetric flow rates, influent phosphate concentrations, reaction temperatures, and inlet pH values. The results suggest that the adsorption of phosphate on MgOP was improved using an increased bed mass, while the reaction temperature did not significantly affect the performance of the MgOP bed during the phosphate removal process. Furthermore, higher influent phosphate concentrations were beneficial towards increasing the column adsorption capacity for phosphate. Several mathematic models, including the Adams-Bohart, Wolboska, Yoon-Nelson, and Thomas models, were employed to fit the fixed-bed data. In addition, the effluent concentration of magnesium ions was measured and the regeneration of MgOP investigated.

Abstract
Increasingly stricter phosphorus discharge limits represent a significant challenge for the wastewater industry. Hybrid media comprising anionic exchange resins with dispersions of hydrated ferric oxide nanoparticles have been shown to selectively remove phosphorus from wastewaters, and display greater capacity and operational capability than both conventional treatment techniques and other ferric-based adsorbent materials. Spectrographic analyses of the internal surfaces of a hybrid media during kinetic experiments show that the adsorption of phosphorus is very rapid, utilising 54% of the total capacity of the media within the first 15 min and 95% within the first 60 min. These analyses demonstrate the importance of intraparticle diffusion on the overall rate in relation to the penetration of phosphorus. Operational capacity is a function of the target effluent phosphorus concentration and for 0.1 mg P L-1, this is [Formula: see text], which is 8-13% of the exhaustive capacity. The adsorbed phosphorus can be selectively recovered, offering a potential route to recycle this important nutrient. The main implication of the work is that the ferric nanoparticle adsorbent can provide a highly effective means of achieving a final effluent phosphorus concentration of 0.1 mg P L-1, even when treating sewage effluent at 5 mg P L-1.

Abstract
Mg-Al-Fe layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were exfoliated and incorporated in polyether sulfone membranes for the removal of phosphate and fluoride for the first time. The exfoliation methods, coagulation bath, LDH amount, interfering ions, adsorption isotherm, desorption and reuse of the membranes were investigated. It was found that LDHs could be quickly exfoliated in formamide/N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent mixtures with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose as a stabilizer. The membranes displayed much higher adsorption capacity for phosphate (5.61mg/g) and faster adsorption rate than the un-exfoliated materials. With increased DMF content in the coagulation bath, the static and dynamic adsorption capacity rose. Interference from Cl- and SO42- (50mg/L) on adsorption of phosphates was not apparent. The membranes displayed excellent reusability in dynamic adsorption/desorption. The membranes also showed high adsorption capacity for fluorides (1.61mg/g).

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) constitute a group of highly persistent, toxic and widespread environmental micropollutants that are increasingly found in water. A study was conducted in removing five PAHs, specifically naphthalene, acenaphthylene, acenaphthene, fluorene and phenanthrene, from water by adsorption onto granular activated carbon (GAC). The pseudo-first-order (PFO) model satisfactorily described the kinetics of adsorption of the PAHs. The Weber and Morris diffusion model's fit to the data showed that there were faster and slower rates of intra-particle diffusion probably into the mesopores and micropores of the GAC, respectively. These rates were negatively related to the molar volumes of the PAHs. Batch equilibrium adsorption data fitted well to the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich models, of which the Freundlich model exhibited the best fit. The adsorption affinities were related to the hydrophobicity of the PAHs as determined by the log Kow values. Free energies of adsorption calculated from the Dubinin-Radushkevich model and the satisfactory kinetic data fitting to the PFO model suggested physical adsorption of the PAHs. Adsorption of naphthalene, acenaphthylene and acenaphthene in fixed-bed columns containing a mixture of GAC (0.5 g) + sand (24.5 g) was satisfactorily simulated by the Thomas model.

Abstract
Finding a good sorbent for phosphorus (P) recovery from the aquatic environment is critical for preventing eutrophication and providing P resources. The activated iron system (mainly consisted of zero-valent iron (ZVI), Fe3O4 and Fe2+) has been reported to exhibit a favorable performance towards various contaminants in wastewater, but its effect on P recovery has not been studied systematically. In this study, we used Fe2+-nitrate pretreatment reaction to prepare the activated iron system and then applied it to P recovery. Results show that more than 99% P was removed from water in 60 min; co-existing anions (NO3-, Cl- and SO42-) and natural organic matter (NOM) had little effect on P removal. The P removal capacity of activated iron system is very high compared with currently reported sorbents. Externally-supplied Fe2+ plays an important role on P removal in the system. Regeneration study shows that the activated iron system exhibited stable P recovery ability by using 0.1 M NaOH solution. Various methods were applied to characterize the ZVI and iron corrosion, and results conclude that sorption precipitation, and co-precipitation contribute to P removal. This method will be promising and have an application potential in the field for efficient and cost-effective recovery of P with cheap microscale zero valent iron.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2018; 616-617:1242-1260. [PMID: 29107379 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2017.10.193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 142] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2017] [Revised: 10/19/2017] [Accepted: 10/19/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
During the past decade, biochar has attracted immense scientific interest for agricultural and environmental applications. A broad range of biochars with advantageous properties (e.g., high surface area, flexible architecture, and high porosity) has been developed for pollution abatement. Nevertheless, biochar suffers from certain drawbacks (e.g., limited sorption capacity for anions and poor mechanical properties) that limit their practical applicability. This review focuses on recent advancements in biochar technology, especially with respect to its technical aspects, the variables associated with removing phosphates from water, and the challenges for such abatement. The attention paid to the specific remediation of phosphate from water using biochar is limited (n=1114 - Scopus) compared to the application of biochar to other common water pollutants (n=3998 - Scopus). The subject warrants immediate rigorous research because of the undesirable effects of excess phosphate in water bodies. This review will thus facilitate the construction of a roadmap for further developments and the expansion of this challenging area of research.

Abstract
Equilibrium studies were carried out for the adsorption of phosphate onto newly discharged coal gangue and spontaneous combustion coal gangue, which are industrial solid residues. The experimental data were fitted to the two-parameter equations of Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevich and the three-parameter equations of the Redlich-Peterson, Sips and Toth isotherms by non-linear method. All three-parameter isotherm equations have a higher correlation coefficient than the two-parameter isotherm equations. For new discharged coal gangue, the maximum phosphate adsorption capacity is over 2.504 mg/g (as P), and the best two-parameter isotherm is Freundlich, which indicated multilayer adsorption takes place on the surface. For spontaneous combustion coal gangue, the maximum phosphate adsorption capacity is 7.079 mg/g (as P), two times larger than new discharged coal gangue, and the best two-parameter isotherm is Langmuir, suggesting that the adsorption process occurs on a homogenous surface by monolayer adsorption. The three-parameter isotherm model of Redlich-Peterson shows the best fitting in both cases, but parameter g is 0.6138 in new discharged coal gangue (the parameter g is nearly 1, which means that the equilibrium isotherm behaves as the Langmuir, not as the Freundlich isotherm), g approaches to unity in spontaneous combustion coal gangue, suggesting that the two kinds of coal gangues have different adsorption properties.

Recovery of phosphorus from synthetic wastewaters by struvite crystallization in a fluidized-bed reactor: Effects of pH, phosphate concentration and coexisting ions. CHEMOSPHERE 2017; 173:466-473. [PMID: 28135681 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2017.01.088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2016] [Revised: 11/11/2016] [Accepted: 01/17/2017] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
The crystallization of struvite in fluidized-bed crystallizer (FBC) was performed to treat synthetic wastewaters that contain phosphorous. Under optimal conditions (pH 9.5, molar ratio Mg/N/P = 1.3/4/1, struvite seed dose (53-297 μm) = 30 g L-1, total flow rate = 12 ml min-1, reflux = 120 ml min-1), the removal of phosphate (PR) and the crystallization ratio (CR) were 95.8% and 93.5%, respectively. Based on a thermodynamic prediction, the supersaturation, which was obtained from the difference between the theoretical solubility and phosphate concentration, predominated the crystallization efficiency and the properties of the struvite pellets, such as their morphology, particle size and apparent density. Coexisting ions NO3- (80, 160 ppm), CH2COOH- (260, 520 ppm), F- (650, 1300 ppm) and SO42- (650, 1300 ppm), were utilized to prepare P-containing wastewaters. Of these ions, SO42- (1300 ppm) remarkably reduced the capability of FBC to remove phosphate from solution. In the presence of NO3- and CH3COO- (for synthesizing TFT-LCD wastewater), and F- and SO42- (for synthesizing semiconductor wastewater), CR% was lower than in pure water, although the ultimate PR% did not differ significantly.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) removal from synthetic solutions and from real Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) wastewater generated by a coal-fired power plant was studied for the first time using a commercial iron oxide impregnated strong base anion exchange resin, Purolite® FerrIX A33E. In synthetic solutions, the resin showed high affinity for selenate and selenite, while sulfate exhibited a strong competition for both oxyanions. The FGD wastewater investigated is a complex system that contains Se (∼1200 μg L-1), SO42- (∼1.1 g L-1), Cl- (∼9.5 g L-1), and Ca2+ (∼5 g L-1), alongside a broad spectrum of toxic trace metals including Cd, Cr, Hg, Ni, and Zn. The resin performed poorly against Se in the raw FGD wastewater and showed moderate to good removal of several trace elements such as Cd, Cr, Hg, and Zn. In FGD effluent, sulfate was identified as a powerful competing anion for Se, having high affinity for the exchange active sites of the resin. The desulfurization of the FGD effluent using BaCl2 led to the increase in Se removal from 3% (non-desulfurized effluent) to 80% (desulfurized effluent) by combined precipitation and ion exchange treatment. However, complete desulfurization using equimolar BaCl2 could not be achieved due to the presence of bicarbonate that acts as a sulfate competitor for barium. In addition to selenium and sulfate removal, several toxic metals were efficiently removed (Cd: 91%; Cr: 100%; Zn: 99%) by the combined (desulfurization and ion exchange) treatment.

Abstract
Using low-cost and naturally available materials is considered an optimal adsorbent for removing phosphorus (P) from water due to its simplicity and economic efficiency. This study examined the removal of P from water using volcanic ash soil (VAS) by batch and column experiments. The maximum adsorption capacity of P was 2.94 mg g-1, estimated from the batch experiment according to a Langmuir isotherm. The column study showed a higher adsorption capacity of 5.57 mg g-1. The breakthrough curve showed that influent water containing 2 mg L-1 P was completely purified by VAS within 1,230 pore volumes (PV). The breakthrough and saturation points of the curves were 3,100 PV and 14,875 PV, respectively. After an adsorption column was loaded with 20,508 PV, a regeneration procedure was developed to determine whether an ion exchange of P with chloride occurred or adsorbed P in the columns could be eluted. Approximately 20% of P was recovered from columns by desorption tests, regardless of NaCl solution or deionized water. Specific surface area and mineral concentrations are both important characteristics that improve the adsorption capacity of VAS. The present study suggests that VAS is a promising adsorbent to remove P in water.

Abstract
A novel nanocomposite (NC) based on magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4-NPs) immobilized on the surface of a cationic exchange polymer, C100, using a modification of the co-precipitation method was developed to obtain magnetic NCs for phosphate removal and recovery from water. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy-energy-dispersive spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy , X-ray diffraction, and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry were used to characterize the NCs. Continuous adsorption process by the so-called breakthrough curves was used to determine the adsorption capacity of the Fe3O4-based NC. The adsorption capacity conditions were studied under different conditions (pH, phosphate concentration, and concentration of nanoparticles). The optimum concentration of iron in the NC for phosphate removal was 23.59 mgFe/gNC. The sorption isotherms of this material were performed at pH 5 and 7. Taking into account the real application of this novel material in real water, the experiments were performed at pH 7, achieving an adsorption capacity higher than 4.9 mgPO4-P/gNC. Moreover, Freundlich, Langmuir, and a combination of them fit the experimental data and were used for interpreting the influence of pH on the sorption and the adsorption mechanism for this novel material. Furthermore, regeneration and reusability of the NC were tested, obtaining 97.5% recovery of phosphate for the first cycle, and at least seven cycles of adsorption-desorption were carried out with more than 40% of recovery. Thus, this work described a novel magnetic nanoadsorbent with properties for phosphate recovery in wastewater.

Abstract
Discharging phosphate through wastewaters into waterways poses a danger to the natural environment due to the serious risks of eutrophication and health of aquatic organisms. However, this phosphate, if economically recovered, can partly overcome the anticipated future scarcity of phosphorus (P) resulting from exhaustion of natural phosphate rock reserves. An experiment was conducted to determine the efficiency of removing phosphate from a membrane bioreactor effluent (pH 7.0-7.5, 20, 35 mg phosphate/L) produced in a water reclamation plant by adsorption onto Dowex 21K XLT ion exchange resin and recover the phosphate as fertilisers. The data satisfactorily fitted to Langmuir adsorption isotherm with a maximum adsorption capacity of 38.6 mg · P/g. The adsorbed phosphate was quantitatively desorbed by leaching the column with 0.1 M NaCl solution. The desorbed phosphate was recovered as struvite when ammonium and magnesium were added at the molar ratio of phosphate, ammonium and magnesium of 1:1:1 at pH 9.5. Phosphate was also recovered from the desorbed solution as hydroxyapatite precipitate by adding calcium hydroxide to the solution at a phosphate to calcium molar ratio of 1:2 at pH 7.0. The P contents of struvite and hydroxyapatite produced were close to those of the respective commercial phosphate fertilisers.

Abstract
Excessive phosphate in wastewater should be removed to control eutrophication of water bodies. The potential of employing amorphous zirconium (Zr) hydroxide to remove phosphate from synthetic wastewater was studied in batch adsorption experiments and in a submerged membrane filtration adsorption hybrid (MFAH) reactor. The adsorption data satisfactorily fitted to Langmuir, pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order models. Langmuir adsorption maxima at 22 °C and pHs of 4.0, 7.1, and 10.0 were 30.40, 18.50, and 19.60 mg P/g, respectively. At pH 7.1 and temperatures of 40 °C and 60 °C, they were 43.80 and 54.60 mg P/g, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters, ΔG° and ΔS° were negative and ΔH° was positive. FTIR, zeta potential and competitive phosphate, sulphate and nitrate adsorption data showed that the mechanism of phosphate adsorption was inner-sphere complexation. In the submerged MFAH reactor experiment, when Zr hydroxide was added at doses of 1-5 g/L once only at the start of the experiment, the removal of phosphate from 3 L of wastewater containing 10 mg P/L declined after 5 h of operation. However, when Zr hydroxide was repeatedly added at 5 g/L dose every 24 h, satisfactory removal of phosphate was maintained for 3 days.

Abstract
Membrane adsorption hybrid system (MAHS) was evaluated for the removal of phosphate from a high rate membrane bioreactor (HR-MBR) effluent. The HR-MBR was operated at permeate flux of 30L/m(2)h. The results indicated that the HR-MBR could eliminate 93.1±1.5% of DOC while removing less than 53% phosphate (PO4-P). Due to low phosphate removal by HR-MBR, a post-treatment of strong base anion exchange resin (Dowex(∗)21K-XLT), and zirconium (IV) hydroxide were used as adsorbent in MAHS for further removal of phosphate from HR-MBR effluent. It was found that the MAHS enabled to eliminate more than 85% of PO4-P from HR-MBR effluent. Hence, HR-MBR followed by MAHS lead to simultaneous removal of organics and phosphate in a reliable manner. The experiments were conducted only for a short period to investigate the efficiency of these resins/adsorbents on the removal of phosphorus and high rate MBR for organic removal.

Abstract
Titania-functionalized graphene oxide (T-F GO), synthesized by a sol-gel process, was used as a highly efficient material to remove phosphate ions from the simulated wastewater. X-ray diffraction spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectra and scanning electron micrographs of T-F GO confirmed that titania particles were successfully grown on graphene oxide (GO) surface. The phosphate ion adsorption capacities of GO, titania and T-F GO as a function of the contact time and the pH were investigated by a UV-visible spectrophotometer. Results showed that T-F GO could absorb phosphate ions better than titania and GO could. This indicated the synergistic effect between titania and GO in the phosphate ion adsorption. The pH increment lowered the absorption capacities due to increasing the repulsion between phosphate anions and the charges on the T-F GO surface, whereas the addition of sodium ions increased the adsorption capacities. Also, phosphate ions were absorbed by specific sites of T-F GO and formed a monolayer on its surface. Finally, the maximum adsorption capacity of T-F GO was 33.11 mg/g at pH 6, much higher than those of GO and titania. Therefore, T-F GO could be a promising material to remove phosphate ions from wastewater in the future.

Abstract
This study explores the potential of removing phosphorus from aqueous solutions and sewage by Zr(IV)-loaded okara (ZLO) in the fixed-bed column. Soybean residue (okara) was impregnated with 0.25M Zr(IV) solution to prepare active binding sites for phosphate. The effect of several factors, including flow rate, bed height, initial phosphorus concentration, pH and adsorbent particle size on the performance of ZLO was examined. The maximum dynamic adsorption capacity of ZLO for phosphorus was estimated to be 16.43mg/g. Breakthrough curve modeling indicated that Adams-Bohart model and Thomas model fitted the experimental data better than Yoon-Nelson model. After treatment with ZLO packed bed column, the effluent could meet the discharge standard for phosphorus in Australia. Successful desorption and regeneration were achieved with 0.2 NaOH and 0.1 HCl, respectively. The results prove that ZLO can be used as a promising phosphorus adsorbent in the dynamic adsorption system.
