“Active filtration” for the elimination and recovery of phosphorus from waste water

Active filtration using cgc seems a promising development for phosphorus removal and recovery from waste water. Thus, it should be possible in the near future to replace state-of-the-art methods of waste water treatment plants (WWTPs), such as metal precipitation or enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR), which have the only aim of phosphorus removal, by a rather simple technology with the paramount goal of phosphorus recovery.
