Cover Story: Excessive phosphorus will cause the eutrophication of a water body, which brings many environmental problems. It is of both fundamental and practical importance to develop effective adsorbents for the continuous removal of phosphate from wastewater. In this paper, magnetic amorphous lanthanum silicate alginate hydrogel beads (MALS-Bs) were synthesized through the hydrogel embedding method. MALS-Bs exhibited a preferable adsorption capacity of 40.14 mg P/g for phosphorus compared to other hydrogel beads, and showed a treatment volume of 480 BV when the effluent phosphorus concentration was below 0.5 mg/L in continuous column runs. Finally, the underlying mechanisms of phosphate removal by MALS-Bs were revealed. Our work demonstrates that MALS-Bs can serve as a promising filling adsorbent candidate for the continuous removal of phosphate from wastewater. View this paper
