The application of …
The Saudi Umm Wu'al Phosphate Project is the world's largest phosphate production facility, and is found at the northern border near Jordan. It produces 1.5 million tons of phosphate annually and can mine, process, and produce phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid.
In our study, we combined the chlorophyll a fluorescence and MR 820 signals to study the response of wheat plants to phosphorus deficiency as indirect tools for phosphorus plant status characterization. In addition, we studied the changes in chlorophyll content index, stomatal conductance (gs), root morphology, and biomass of wheat plants.
In this chapter, we review current research aimed at dissecting the components of the biochemical, molecular, and physiological adaptations associated with the plant responses to P …
Limitation of plant productivity by phosphorus (P) supply is widespread and will probably increase in the future. ... Knowledge of the mechanisms involved could help design and breed crops with greater P utilization efficiency. Keywords: Phosphorus, phosphorus utilization efficiency, phosphorus pools, phosphorus recycling, phosphorus distribution.
The purpose of this methodology is not only to assist with plant design, but also to identify the principal economic and environmental factors acting as barriers to implementing a given …

Abstract Phosphorus as a fundamental element for growth and metabolism of living organisms, yet problematic to water quality, is an irreplaceable component. Application of enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) technology in wastewater treatment plants offers phosphorus removal and recovery in addition to potential eutrophication prevention. This …
The pilot plant that can process between 0.5 and 2 kg/h of phosphate rock is designed to provide the major data required to design an industrial plant. This will include: Reactor Volume
Within these categories, plant configurations, scales and parameters are determined based on previous empirical studies, with all design choices made to achieve more sustainable operational performance. The design choices and pathway configurations are illustrated in the following sections, and only serve as examples of possible flowsheets.
Integrated overview of phosphate starvation responses. The responses and signalling mechanisms operate at a range of scales and different locations which are depicted in nine connected panels: (a) denotes the whole plant and field scale; the numbers in red circles represent normal and low inorganic phosphate conditions (1) phosphorus playing a major role …
When grown in soils with sparingly available phosphorus (P), white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) forms special root structures, called cluster roots, which secrete large amounts of organic acids and concomitantly acidify the rhizosphere. Many studies dealing with the understanding of this P acquisition strategy have been performed in short time experiments either in hydroponic …
Many wastewater treatment plants use chemical phosphate precipitation to remove phosphorus from wastewater. However, phosphate loads can fluctuate, making optimal precipitant dosing difficult. If the dosage is too low, the strict phosphorus limits will not be met. In contrast, overdosing means a higher volume of sludge and thus higher disposal ...
As an essential nutrient element, phosphorus (P) is primarily acquired and translocated as inorganic phosphate (Pi) by plant roots. Pi is often sequestered in the soil and becomes limited for plant growth. Plants have developed a sophisticated array of adaptive responses, termed P starvation responses, to cope with P deficiency by improving its ...
Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient required for plant growth and development. P is involved in many physiological processes, including energy transfer, cell division and replication, DNA ...
While chemical and biological phosphorous treatments are the two main techniques for removing phosphorus from domestic and industrial wastewater, many variations and combinations have …
A comprehensive pilot plant study constitutes the basis for a reliable evaluation of the rock and the process selection. It is always desirable to have a process design which …
Background and aims Rhizosphere serves as a hotspot for phosphatase exudation, which is instrumental in organic P mineralization and thereby facilitates enhanced P uptake by plants. However, further exploration is required to elucidate mechanisms of P transformation regulated by microorganisms in rhizosphere hotspots. Methods Soil zymography was used to …
This will help prevent waterlogging and ensure that the plant roots can access the phosphorus in the soil. Adjust soil pH: Adjust the soil pH to a level that is suitable for the specific plant species. Most plants prefer a slightly acidic to neutral pH …
Phosphorus is an essential component of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is involved in most biochemical processes in plants and enables them to extract nutrients from the soil. …
Phosphate-Utilisation Efficiency (PUtE) involves optimisation of harvest index while reducing plant phosphorus demand and/or enhancing its internal utilisation/recycling. PAE and PUtE combine to give an overall Phosphorus …

Phosphorus (P) recovery from waste-water is very relevant to the problems discussed above. Among the different recoverable resources in the waste and wastewater sector, P is a notable priority.[10] As a key nutrient for the growth of living organisms and intensive agriculture, phosphorus rock is a non-renewable mineral resource which
Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for plant growth and development. To adapt to low inorganic-phosphate (P i) environments, plants have evolved complex mechanisms and pathways that regulate the acquisition and remobilization of P i and maintain P homeostasis. These mechanisms are regulated by complex gene regulatory networks through the functions …
Phosphorous is the eleventh most copious element on earth's crust (0.1%), occurring in the form of calcium phosphate rocks [98]. It is a finite, non-renewable resource and a critical essential nutrient (NPK) for primary producers. It plays an indispensable role in ensuring global food security and is used in commercial fertilizer production.

phosphorus; so the more MLSS wasted and the more sludge removed from the plant the more phosphorus is removed from the wastewater. See the graph below, taken from the Bio-Tiger (Moore 2017) activated sludge model. At a 10-day solids retention time (SRT or MCRT) this plant is predicted to remove just over 20,000 lbs/day of waste sludge, but
