Abstract:In this work, phosphate removal was evaluated through a fixed-bed column. Experiments were carried out using three different adsorbents: raw dolomite (RD), calcined dolomite (CD), and ultrasound-modified dolomite (UD). An experimental design, Bayesian statistics, and data prediction were performed by modeling the breakthrough curves to study the efficiency of the process. To optimize the experimental process, the effects of initial phosphate concentration (15−60 mg L −1 ), adsorbent mass (0.5−3 g), and feed-fl… Show more
