Valorization of a Lanthanum-Modified Natural Feedstock for Phosphorus Recovery from Aqueous Solutions: Static and Dynamic Investigations.

ABSTRACT: This work investigates, for the first time, the application of a modified natural magnetite material with 35% of lanthanum for phosphorus (P) recovery from synthetic and actual wastewater under both static (batch) and dynamic (continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR)) conditions. The characterization results showed that the natural feedstock mainly comprises magnetite and kaolinite. Moreover, the lanthanum-modified magnetite (La-MM) exhibited more enhanced textural, structural, and surface chemistry properties than the natural feedstock. In particular, its surface area (82.7 m² g^-1) and total pore volume (0.160 cm³ g^-1) were higher by 86.6% and 255.5%, respectively. The La-MM efficiently recovered P in batch mode under diverse experimental settings
