Recovery of phosphorus as soluble phosphates from aqueous solutions using chitosan hydrogel sorbents

Abstract This manuscript presents new method of phosphorus recovery from aqueous solutions in a convenient form of readily-soluble phosphates using chitosan hydrogels. Non-modified chitosan hydrogel granules (CHs) and chitosan hydrogel granules crosslinked with epichlorohydrin (CHs-ECH) served as or...
