Abstract:Phosphorus in wastewater accelerates eutrophication in water body. Textile wastewater is one of contributors to the phosphorus loading into water body which promotes the growth of algae, reducing the oxygen content and detrimental to surface water ecosystem. Myriad existing treatments for phosphorus removal have been developed but it requires a high cost treatment and maintenance. Rock filter system emerged as one of the alternative method for phosphorus removal from wastewater with steel slag as the filter me… Show more
