Cover Story: Phosphorus (P) removal structures are an edge-of-field practice for removing dissolved P from flowing water that comes from soils built-up with excessive P concentrations (i.e. legacy soils). These landscape-scale filters contain P sorption materials (PSMs) that sorb P by various reactions. Already proven effective, current research is dedicated to increasing efficiency and decreasing cost of structures. Cover photo shows a 35 Mg slag subsurface P removal structure for treating agricultural tile drainage with flow from the bottom-up. The structure handled 12 L s-1 flow and removed 19 kg (55%) of the cumulative dissolved P load. View this paper.
