“…Natural organophosphorus results from the decomposition of plants, animals, and microbial cellular materials and can be characterized mainly as phosphate esters (C–O–P, including nucleic acids, nucleotides, and phospholipids) and, to a less extent, phosphonates (C–P) . Natural and synthetic organophosphorous (e.g., flame retardants, pesticides, nerve agents) can account for a substantial portion of total P in both wastewaters and environmental waters, posing significant threats to the safety of the aquatic environment and human health. , Through hydrolysis by bacteria, enzyme, sunlight, and suspended natural minerals in water, , organophosphorus, in particular, phosphate esters can be converted into inorganic orthophosphate and, therefore, may also represent a significant risk for eutrophication.…”
