Effect of Various Sizes of Calcined Marsh Clam Shell on Phosphate Removal from Aqueous Solution

Phosphorus is one of essential elements for sustaining life largely through phosphate, a compound containing the phosphate ion, PO4 3−. However, excessive phosphorus concentrations will cause eutrophication and this condition is considered as an environmental issue. The phosphorus sources are commo...

Effect of Various Sizes of Calcined Marsh Clam Shell on Phosphate Removal from Aqueous Solution
description Phosphorus is one of essential elements for sustaining life largely through phosphate, a compound containing the phosphate ion, PO4 3−.

The phosphorus sources are commonly from human activities; for instance, detergents, fertilisers, and industries. Although various adsorption techniques have been applied to remove phosphorus in water, the effect of different particle sizes of calcined marsh clam shells on phosphate removal has not been fully investigated, along with its adsorption kinetics and isotherms. This study investigates phosphate removal from synthetic solution onto calcined marsh clam shells (CMCs) with 5 different particle sizes: 0.075–0.15, 0.15–0.30, 0.30–0.60, 0.60–1.18, and 1.18–2.36 mm.
