Belloni, C. (author), Korving, L. (author), Witkamp, G.J. (author), Brück, E.H. (author), Dugulan, A.I. (author)Iron oxide-based adsorbents showed potential to reach ultra-low phosphorus (P) concentrations to prevent eutrophication and recover P. High affinity, high capacity at low P concentrations (<1 mg L<sup>−1</sup>), good stability, and reusability of the adsorbent are key factors for economic viability. In this study, nanoparticles of goethite...journal article 2024

Belloni, C. (author)This thesis focuses on recycling resources while preserving water quality and availability. This concept is at the basis of a healthy and sustainable society yet works needs to be done. Water scarcity will be a growing challenge that humanity will have to face in the coming years, due to poor resource management and the climate change crisis....doctoral thesis 2023

Belloni, C. (author), Korving, L. (author), Witkamp, G.J. (author), Brück, E.H. (author), Dugulan, A.I. (author)Phosphorus (P) removal from freshwater bodies to ultra-low concentrations is fundamental to prevent eutrophication, while its recovery is necessary to close the P usage cycle. Iron oxide-based adsorbents seem promising candidates, being abundant, cheap, and easy to synthesize compounds, with good affinity for P. Affinity is the key parameter...journal article 2023

Suresh Kumar, P. (author)Eutrophication and the resulting formation of harmful algal blooms causes huge economic and environmental damages. Phosphorus (P) has been identified as a major limiting nutrient for eutrophication. Phosphorous concentration greater than 100 µg P/L is usually considered high enough for causing eutrophication. The strictest regulations however...doctoral thesis 2018
