Key Points

This research aims to evaluate engineered clay pellets for their efficiency in removing phosphorus from agricultural runoff.
Engineered clay pellets produced from Ca-bentonite and kaolinite were tested as adsorbents.
Performance was assessed based on phosphorus removal from wastewater and soil.
Industrial residuals were used in the pellet formulation.
Engineered clay pellets demonstrated effective phosphorus removal from agricultural runoff.
Adsorbents showed potential for low-cost water treatment solutions.

Implication

Engineered clay pellets improve phosphorus removal in water runoff, suggesting a viable solution for agricultural pollution.

Abstract

Naturally occurring Ca-bentonite and kaolinite clay minerals acted as low-cost adsorbents for removing phosphorus (P) from waste water and soil. We evaluated the potential of engineered clay pellets prepared with...
