摘要
Batch laboratory scale experiments were conducted to investigate the removal of phosphate from aqueous and municipal wastewater samples by addition of FeCl3. 6H(2)O. The effect of pH, Fe-dose and initial phosphate concentration were assessed. Optimum phosphate removal, 63% for 1:1 molar addition of Fe(III) was observed at pH 4.5. However, a 155% excess of Fe-dose was necessary for complete phosphorus removal. Phosphorus removal from municipal wastewater was slightly higher than that observed for the aqueous solutions. A chemical precipitation mathematical model was developed and tested with the available experimental data. The model included a total of 15 chemical reactions and 4 solid phases with the option of single-phase precipitation or two-phase co-precipitation. The resulting system of non-linear algebraic equations was solved numerically, using the Wijngaarden-Dekker-Brent method. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
