Phosphate removal from aqueous solution was investigated using nano-FeOOH composite biomass char developed from corn straw, an agricultural solid waste. The composite char was obtained by a procedure of “pyrolysis–metal complex anion incorporation-precipitation.” The saturated adsorption capacity of composite obtained under different conditions varied 28.8∼37.3 mg P/g. Either higher final temperature or higher heating rate may decrease the adsorption capacity of composite absorbents. The removal efficiency reached maximum in the pH range of 3∼6. Adsorption capacity increased with the adsorption temperature increasing and decreased with pH increasing. The adsorption equilibrium data well followed both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, and the constant n –1 values in Freundlich equation between 0 and 1 indicated a strong adsorption. The adsorption kinetics dada following pseudo-second-order model indicated that the adsorption process was dominated by chemisorption. The excellent adsorption ability even at very high concentrate additive ions level as well as the low desorption ratio further supported the occurrence of chemisorption between phosphate and the composite. Thus, the adsorption mechanisms may involve both ion exchange and chemisorption.
