AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are insufficient to effectively regulate the occurrence of heavy metals and the recovery rate of phosphorus in struvite, resulting in excessive heavy metals that limit its safe application as a fertilizer. Furthermore, the interaction of various factors has not been fully analyzed.
By combining response surface methodology and Minteq, experimental designs were implemented to optimize struvite production parameters, including pH, heavy metal concentration, heavy metal molar ratio, and bicarbonate concentration. A regression model was then established to optimize phosphorus recovery and heavy metal content.
It enables the control of heavy metal concentration and alkalinity in wastewater to maximize phosphorus recovery, minimize the occurrence of heavy metals in struvite, provide safe and healthy agricultural soil fertilization process parameters, reduce sodium hydroxide usage, and improve production efficiency.
