The discharge of excessive concentration of orthophosphate (PO4-P) ions into the receiving
water causes environmental problems such as “eutrophication.” The aim of the present study …

Phosphates are very important basic materials in agricultural and other industrial
applications. Phosphorus is often present in low concentrations in wastewater, almost solely …

Phosphates removal from aqueous solutions was investigated using three different
inorganic materials: laboratory synthesized goethite, commercial alumina and commercial …

The need to control eutrophication in water bodies and the risk of supply shortage of
phosphate rock have motivated the search for treatment techniques able to sequester and …

Eutrophication, a worldwide problem, threatens the ecology of freshwater bodies and marine
environments. However, the control of nutrients, especially phosphate in water bodies and …

In this work, the water quality status of the surface water that lies around the Karamana River
basin, Trivandrum urban area, was studied on the basis of the water quality index (WQI) …

Alkaline residue (AR) was found to be an efficient adsorbent for phosphate removal from
wastewater. The kinetic and equilibrium of phosphate removal were investigated to evaluate …

In the last decades, phosphate is considered the main cause of eutrophication and has
received substantial attention from the scientific community. Phosphate is a major pollutant …

Phosphorus (P) removal from urban wastewater is increasingly relevant in the wastewater
treatment sector. The present work aims to contribute to the study of the adsorption process …

The present study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of red soil (RS), as a natural
adsorbent, for phosphate removal from wastewater. The chemical composition of the …
