ABSTRACT The increased industrial and agricultural activity has affected the availability of phosphorous (P) in nature and has caused significant imbalance in the P cycle with long term consequences on ecosystem health and sustainability. While P is an essential element for food production as well as plant and animal nutrition, it is also a limited non-renewable resource whose availability is expected to decrease in the next century. Widespread application of P-based fertilizers and their excessive accumulation in water bodies leads to eutrophication which is associated with overgrowth of harmful algal blooms and degradation of water quality. This paper provides an overview of contemporary challenges and methodologies for improving P use efficiency and sustainability in the environment. Technologies and processes for the removal of P-containing compounds from water through the use of functional nanomaterial sorbents with tailored surface properties for capture, removal and recycling are described. Various classes of materials including carbon-based, zeolites, mesoporous silica, metal organic frameworks, metal oxides and hydroxides, biomass-derived materials and P-binding receptors are reviewed along with their properties, binding affinity and adsorption capacity. The potential of these materials to control the amount of P in the environment and create decision support tools for water resource management is also discussed, with examples of applications.

INTRODUCTION The management of water resources is one of the most challenging problems faced at local and global levels. The water circuit has implications in both the availability of clean water sources for human consumption as well as for the normal functioning of natural ecosystems. Human activities and advances in industrial and agricultural processes have greatly affected the quality of water resources and impacted the nutrient cycle, which is essential for all forms of life. The main effects are observed in the nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P)-cycles in the ecosystem, two elements that are vital for living organisms. P is part of the building blocks of cells and plays an important role in bioenergetic processes and in the storage and processing of genetic information.1 While P is an essential element for all forms of life and its supply is needed to sustain crop production, its excessive use and release in the environment leads to unwanted consequences. When used constantly as a fertilizer to improve crop production, excess P can cause extreme growth of plants and toxic algal blooms in bodies of water2, essentially acting as a pollutant when present in high concentrations. Enrichment of water by nutrients e.g. eutrophication, is a major societal and economic problem that has gained renewed interest in the past decade.3-5 Main concerns are: i) ensuring the global agricultural needs and food production for an increasing population which is highly dependent on P-resources, ii) counteracting the environmental damages caused by the excess release of P nutrients (e.g. leaching from agricultural fields leading to eutrophication), iii) depletion of natural reserves of P that are limited and non-renewable6-7 and iv) the inefficient mobilization of P resources across the globe and the associated economic impact. Managing and controlling the P-cycle is essential for ensuring an overall nutrient balance and achieving equilibrium between beneficial and harmful effects. With the growing incidence of eutrophication, the scientific community is faced with the challenge to develop solutions to the problems associated with the limited supply, increasing demand and damaging effects of P in the environment. This review discusses the latest advances in materials science and engineering, with focus on nanoporous sorbents that can provide sustainable solutions to capture, recycle and reuse P-containing nutrients from the environment and address sustainability challenges associated with the P-cycle in the environment. 3 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Nanoporous sorbents represent a new wave of materials that can be engineered at the nanoscale level to monitor and control the amount of P-containing fertilizers. The surface of these materials can be modified to provide binding sites and form stable and reversible complexes to capture, remove and recycle P in their nanoporous network. Based on these principles, nanoporous sorbents can be used in water treatment, filtration and sensing. This paper outlines the varying types of nanoporous materials that can be used to bind and remove P and develop technology and decision support systems for water resources management.

PHOSPHORUS SOURCES, SPECIATION AND CONCENTRATION Global food production relies on the use of fertilizers and pesticides containing P for the treatment of crops.8-9 The rapid population growth in the 20th century leads to an increased use of P-based crop additives in order to sustain the food demand.10-11 Fertilizers and pesticides are produced using raw materials obtained from the mining of phosphate rock. Based on the available estimations, the global phosphate rock reserves are expected to decrease significantly in the next century.12-13 The latest estimates indicate that Morocco and Western Sahara own the vast majority of available phosphate resources, followed by China, Algeria, Syria, and United States among others.3, 14 There is a general consensus within the scientific community that the current practices in the P supply-chain are not sustainable in the long-term.13 At the same time, the intensive use of P-containing fertilizers and pesticides has resulted in a significant increase in the global flux of P and a growing demand for industrial production.10-11 P is extracted from phosphate rock deposits, which are used as the primary source for the production of fertilizers. Another source is leached P present in the runoff and waste streams originating from mining, agricultural industrial activities,15-17 and domestic wastewaters, e.g. food waste and sewage from domestic users.18-19 While about 80% of mined P ends up in fertilizers, pesticides, and animal feeds, almost half of this amount is lost in agricultural activities through soil leaching and erosion.8 Food production and consumption are also responsible for the loss of P in the food supply-chain through food and human waste. It has been estimated that only for US, 85% of the mined P is lost in the environment somewhere along the food supply-chain.2021

While fertilizers and pesticides are needed in agriculture to maximize crops production, their

presence causes excessive growth of biota in environments in which they are released, affecting 4 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

aquatic ecosystems from the smallest streams to oceans.22 The excessive accumulation of P and N-containing species in surface waters leads to eutrophication,2, 17, 23-24 has severe consequences on the environment and human health (Table 1).25-26

Effects of eutrophication  Increased biomass of phytoplankton and macrophyte vegetation  Increased biomass of consumer species  Shifts to bloom-forming algal species that might be toxic or inedible  Increases in blooms of gelatinous zooplankton (marine environments)  Increased biomass of benthic and epiphytic algae  Changes in species composition of macrophyte vegetation  Declines in coral reef health and loss of coral reef communities  Increased incidence of fish mortality  Reduction in species diversity  Reduction in harvestable fish and shellfish biomass  Decreased water transparency  Oxygen depletion  Taste, odor, and drinking water treatment issues  Decreased drinking water resources  Altered recreational and aesthetic values of the water bodies P can be found in different forms, as inorganic phosphates27 and as a constituent of organic compounds, some of which are commonly used as pesticides in agriculture, e.g. organophosphates such as paraoxon, diclorvos, chlorpyrifos and diazinon.28-29,

phosphates exist as PO43-, HPO42-, H2PO4-, or H3PO4, depending on pH.22 The different ionic forms can be found as neutral species in solution (H3PO4, pKa1 =2.1) at low pH (2.1 ± 0.5), and as negative ions such as H2PO4− and HPO42− (pKa2 = 7.2 and pKa3 = 12.3, respectively) at pH values between 3 and 10. When the pH is above pH 12.3, phosphate is fully deprotonated, i.e., PO43−.31 The inorganic P forms may be present as both soluble or particulate matter.32 Particulate 5 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

inorganic P is found in sediments combined with calcium, iron, or aluminum.33 In ocean water, soluble inorganic P represents the largest share of the total P.34 Speciation of P in smaller water bodies (lakes and rivers, ponds, etc.) is harder to predict, as variable composition of soluble or particulate, inorganic or organic P are possible depending on the source of release. Variability is observed as well in the reported P concentrations for different water and waste streams. Mean concentrations of total P between 0.1 and 30 mg/L were reported for several different anthropogenic sources in UK.35 Estimations based on data collected in periodic national surveys conducted by the U.S. EPA suggest that increasing concentrations of total P are ubiquitous, with the median total P being 0.056 mg/L (2014 survey) for streams and 0.037 mg/L in lakes (2012 survey).36 While water streams contain relatively low concentrations of total P, animal waste streams may contain as much as 2.4 mg/L total P.37 The overall lack of homogeneity in the speciation pattern and concentration range of P species in water and waste streams is an impediment in the search for an universal approach for recapture and reuse of P.

AND

EUTROPHICATION EFFECTS Well-known examples of water ecosystems affected by eutrophication are the Lake Erie basin,3839

the Gulf of Mexico,40 the Great Barrier Reef lagoon,41 and the Baltic Sea42. Excess nutrients in

water determine an increased production and development of phytoplankton, micro- and macroalgae.43 As a consequence, aquatic ecosystems may suffer changes in species productivity and composition due to competition for light and reduced oxygen availability, leading to the formation of “dead or hypoxic zones” in water bodies.44-45 Vascular plants, coral reefs, and finfish species are mostly affected by poor health, migration, or death and extinction.41, 46 From a health perspective, exposure to or ingestion of water with high content of phosphate can lead to impaired renal function, rhabdomyolysis, tumour lysis syndrome, or even death in humans.47 Another consequence of eutrophication is the release of toxins by blue-green algae formations (cyanobacteria).48-50 Exposure to cyanobacteria is associated with sickness in humans51 and wildlife mortality.52 The lack of clean water affects primarily communities with limited sources of drinking water and developing regions that rely on untested or untreated water sources. Poor water quality has direct economic and societal implications such as: increased drinking water 6 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

treatment costs, restoration of biodiversity in affected ecosystems, altered tourism and recreational activities in the region of affected lakes and water bodies, and decreased value of lakefront properties.53 The estimated total economic cost of eutrophication mitigation in US is around $2.2 billion, but this is most likely a conservative assessment.53 In the current state, the global P cycle is not sustainable, without adopting measures for the recovery and reuse. Strategies to prevent the excessive loss of nutrients in the environment3 and improve conservation and recycling are needed to reduce the harmful consequences of eutrophication (Figure 1) and achieve a sustainable P supply.27

Figure 1. Schematic of the supply-chain of P from mining, industry and agricultural use to human consumption. Phosphate rock is mined as a phosphorus source to produce fertilizers and pesticides for agricultural use. Inefficient use at each step of the extraction, production and use as well as food and human waste represent other major sources of P. Excess nutrients impact water bodies by forming toxic blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) blooms with harmful consequences on human health and aquatic ecosystems.

While complete loss of P in the environment is unavoidable, steps can be taken to manage the effects of eutrophication in the most affected areas and provide a more sustainable and responsible use.54-55 Strategies to bring the lost P back in use from each steps of its supply-chain, while at the same time preventing release during food production, distribution and consumption, and human waste treatment are also needed.6 Recycling approaches are essential towards shifting from reliance on mined phosphate rock to a more effective utilization of P fertilizers obtained from sources within the food supply-chain. Recycling methods can be developed to capture P from waste streams originating from industries relying on P use, runoff and erosion streams from agricultural and post-harvest activities, crop residues and dairy operations, final food products waste, human waste and sewage.37,

56-57

Considering the importance of recycling P towards

ensuring a sustainable food supply-chain in the future, there is a need to develop technologies that can efficiently capture and recover P, enabling its reuse in the fertilizer industry. Progress of nanotechnology has stimulated the development of new nanoporous material sorbents with unique surface sorption properties that can be used in the treatment of P-rich water streams, waste streams, or runoff for P-capture and recycling.

TECHNOLOGIES FOR PHOSPHORUS REMOVAL Chemical precipitation, crystallization, biological processes and adsorption, are reviewed here as the most commonly known technologies for removal and recovery of P from wastewater. The charged forms of phosphate can be involved in electrostatic interactions with charged sorbents and participate in ligand exchange mechanisms with ionic species from the surface. Phosphates can also form complexes with a variety of metal (M) ions, as MPO4. These interactions constitute the basis of most P-removal technologies.

Chemical precipitation. A common method to remove P from wastewaters and reduce effluent concentrations below 1.0 mg P/L is through chemical precipitation. The process involves the addition of metal salts of aluminum, calcium, magnesium or iron to react with soluble phosphate and form solid precipitates.58 In the chemical precipitation techniques, 80–99 % P can be removed and recovered from wastewater streams

in the form of fertilizer (magnesium

ammonium phosphate or struvite).59 Karapinar et al.60 utilized ammonium-loaded zeolite as a 8 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

seeding material for precipitating calcium phosphate and suggested the possibility of using the precipitate-ammonium loaded zeolites as fertilizer. The efficiency of chemical precipitation is affected by alkalinity, organic matter content and the coexistent metals.61 The process can generate a large amount of sludge, due to the precipitation of P-bonded chemicals, and release magnesium and aluminum that could have secondary effects on the environment. The method is sensitive to seasonal and diurnal variations in temperature and changes in feed concentrations which make this approach a less attractive option for wastewater treatment.

Crystallization. An alternative strategy is to crystallize P by inducing super-saturation, nucleation and crystal growth on seeding materials such as calcite, sand, magnetite and a variety of Ca phosphate crystals62-64. The distinction between precipitation and crystallization is generally based on the speed of the process and the size of the solid particles produced. Furthermore, instead of bulky sludge produced by precipitation, the crystallization process generates high purity phosphate crystal pellets that can be reused as an alternative to mined phosphate.65 This method is the basis of the Phosnix process, a commercially available technology that utilizes a column reactor with ancillary chemical dosing equipment for nucleation and growth of struvite crystals followed by ion exchange–precipitation.

Biological processes. Biological treatment thorough the use of photosynthetic organisms (algae, plants, and planktonic bacteria) which uptake P as an energy reserve represents a sustainable alternative for the removal of P. Soluble P is assimilated as polyphosphate by Phosphorous Accumulating Organisms (PAOs) which utilize P within their cells for growth.66 The P can be recovered after separation of the accumulated biomass from the treated water.66 Biological aerated filters (BAF) are widely employed in wastewater treatment for nitrogen and phosphorus removal in a single reactor, with reduced space and cost requirements. To increase efficiency for phosphorus removal, BAFs are often used as a secondary treatment, after a pre-treatment step using coagulants to chemically precipitate phosphorus.29-30 Addition of the coagulant directly into the BAF reactor may induce filter clogging and inhibition of the microbial activity. Other limitations of the biological treatment method are the sensitivity to seasonal variations in temperature and changes in feed concentrations, and low efficiency for achieving removal of low P concentrations. 9 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Adsorption. The most simple and cost effective method for P removal is through adsorption on porous materials.67 The method relies on the P-sorption properties of certain materials to bind and capture P in a targeted manner. Most adsorbents are carbon based but other materials such as zeolites, metal oxides, functional polymers and composites have been reported.68 Adsorption can involve weak physical forces through electrostatic or van der Waals interactions, or chemical processes via formation of chemical bonds between the adsorbed P and the active functional sites of the sorbent. In contrast to earlier discussed techniques, adsorption is a highly efficient process, particularly for low P concentration. The success of the adsorption method depends on the selection of a suitable sorbent and the presence (or possibilities for grafting) of P-binding sites to its surface. Parameters to consider include the adsorption/removal capacity, kinetics, recyclability/reuse, compatibility, cost, and local availability.69 Furthermore, an ideal adsorbent should have large surface area, pore volume, and abundant accessible functionalities to sorb and desorb P, as well as, increased stability and lifetime. Additionally, sorbents should be selective for P and able to remove P down to 50 µg/L, which is the EPA recommended limit to prevent algae blooms. Indeed, it is challenging to find a material that could meet all of the requirements of an ideal sorbent. More effective materials are needed to improve removal efficiency while also providing possibilities for recovery and reuse. Nanoporous materials could provide alternative sorbents with increased sorption efficiency due to their high surface area. In the next section, we discuss recent research on the development of nanoporous materials for adsorption, removal and recovery of P

CHARACTERISTICS OF ADSORBENTS FOR REMOVAL AND RECOVERY Adsorption characteristics. The properties of the adsorbent which include surface area, porosity (specific surface area, pore volume, and pore size distribution), surface charge and the availability of P-binding sites strongly influence removal efficiency. Ideally, the sorbent should be regenerated for reuse, while conserving the same sorption characteristics for multiple cycles. At the same time, the captured P should be easily detached and freed from materials in order to be reused as a fertilizer. Adsorption can vary significantly depending on the environment and therefore functionality under relevant conditions of pH, temperature and ionic composition 10 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

should be demonstrated. Generally, the adsorption capacity is greater for higher surface area materials due to increasing pore volumes. Porosity and surface area characteristics are commonly measured using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method by nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms at 77 K. The adsorbent efficiency also depends on the surface charge of the material. Therefore sorbents should be selected based on their isoelectric point (pHpzc) to ensure charge complementarity. Typically, adsorption involves weak electrostatic, Lewis acid-base or hydrophobic interactions. These interactions are pH dependent and binding can vary with the pH of the environment. The dominant species of phosphates, for example, HPO42− and H2PO4− are negatively charged over a wide pH range. When pH is below the pHpzc of the adsorbent (i.e., pH < pHpzc), its surface is positively charged enhancing adsorption. On the other hand, at higher pH (i.e., pH > pHpzc), the adsorbent surface is more likely negatively charged, leading to decreased adsorption affinity (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Proposed mechanisms for the removal of phosphate in acidic and alkaline conditions.

The binding affinity is another important consideration. The binding affinity is usually determined by the fitting data using Langmuir isotherm equation (eq (1)) through an overall consideration of the adsorption isotherms.

coefficient. The KL can be further used for calculating the dimensionless separation factor (RL), which is defined as: RL = 1/(1 + KL Co)

(2)

Where Co is the initial concentration of the metal ions. The RL value indicates the shape of the isotherm. RL values between 0 and 1 indicate favorable adsorption70. Also RL values can be either unfavorable (RL > 1), linear (RL = 1), or irreversible (RL =0). RL also can be plotted versus Co. The decrease of RL with the increase of the initial Co concentration is indicative of favorable adsorption of phosphate onto the adsorbent71. The value varies with the Co concentration. Examples of reported RL values for phosphate binding affinity are 0.3 to 0.6 at Co between 5 and 150 mg P/L72, and between 0.3 and 0.8 at Co between 9–982 mg P/L onto Fe-Al-bentonite (FAB) following a monolayer adsorption model73. The Freundlich adsorption isotherm can be plotted to determine sorption capacity for nonideal sorption on heterogeneous surfaces, and multilayer adsorption, which is defined as: log qe = (1/n) log Ce + log Kf

(3)

Where Ce is the equilibrium concentration (mg/L), qe is the amount adsorbed at equilibrium (mg/g), Kf is the Partition Coefficient (mg/g) and n is the intensity of adsorption. High percent removal is generally obtained for low phosphate concentrations but as the concentration increases the percentage removal decreases. When a large surface area sorbent is used, as in the case of nanoporous sorbents, numerous adsorption sites are available that can catch most phosphate when this is present at lower concentrations, whereas at high concentrations the adsorption sites become limited. Experimental kinetic data obtained from Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms can be used to describe the type of adsorption, e.g. monolayer or multilayer. A composite material of magnesite and bentonite clay was able to remove more than 99% of phosphate between the range of 2 to 200 mg/L at pH 10 after 30 min incubation following a monolayer adsorption model, fitted to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm.74 Porous materials can serve as sorbents by themselves or they can be modified with organic or inorganic species to enhance P-binding and improve selectivity.75 Specific P-binding receptors can be incorporated within/onto porous materials to facilitate separation and recovery. Therefore, the surface of nanosorbents can be carefully designed to provide binding sites for P 12 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

which in addition to their porosity and large surface area provide promising feature for enhancing recovery of P.76 For example, graphene alone is unable to retain phosphate due to electrostatic repulsion. However, reduced graphene that has been modified with positively charged metal ions (e.g. La3+) enabled removal of phosphate and nitrate through coordination with the carboxylate groups of the modified graphene.77 High performance adsorbents with Pseparation and recovery can be developed by incorporating P-binding receptors to supporting materials such as mesoporous silica structures, magnetic particles or polymers. The rapidly growing class of supramolecular phosphate-binding receptors provides opportunities for enhancing sorption activity and selectivity for phosphate binding.78 The recyclability of the adsorbent defined by its ability to bind and release P-compounds for multiple cycles is another characteristic that should be considered in order to ensure efficient recycling of the sorbent and enable the reuse of the bound P. Various regeneration techniques have been reported such as thermal (high temperature calcination)79, chemical, electrochemical80, biological, and oxidizing81 methods. Thermal and chemical treatment methods are the most common due to their cost-effectiveness and practicality. In the thermal process, the temperature and the regeneration time of the sorbent can affect the percent recovery in further cycles. Chemical treatment using acids and bases can desorb phosphate as a function of pH, and provide an effective strategy to recover the bound phosphate by changing the pH environment. However, some adsorbents can be affected under extreme acidic and basic conditions82 and may leach into the environment. Salts have been also used as desorbing agents to destabilize surface charge. However, addition of a high concentration of salt may result in high salinity to the soil that might have an adverse effect on plant growth if the phosphate recovered is reused as a fertilizer.83

Challenges of designing effective sorbents. Several challenges exist when designing sorbents for P-removal. These include interferences from other competing species, potential biofouling, large scale manufacturing, stability and toxicity considerations of the sorbent material. Ideal sorbents should enable effective removal of P from streams that usually have a variable and complex composition. In general, wastewater contains significant concentrations of solid matter, dissolved and particulate matter, nutrients, cations and anions, organic matter, as well as microorganisms.84 The concentrations of P species are likely much smaller than concentrations of typical cations and anions found in water bodies. Typical cations (e.g. calcium, magnesium, 13 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

potassium, sodium) are present in concentrations of 4-70 mg/L, while typical anions (e.g. carbonate, bicarbonate, chloride, nitrate, sulfate) reach concentrations of 5-100 mg/L.85 Salt concentrations are also known to affect the removal capabilities of sorbents.86 Interference from cations and anions are usually reported for new materials developed for P adsorption; however, there are multiple other wastewater composition parameters not assessed.87 P sorbents should demonstrate performance in realistic environmental samples at relevant concentrations of P species and co-existing ions. Many matrix constituents can also cause fouling of sorbents, a major problem for filtration systems in wastewater treatment. Fouling can be caused by inorganic or organic matter, particulate or colloidal matter, or microbial/biological derived matter (biofouling).88 The issue of fouling is rarely discussed in regard with P capture and wastewater treatment. Development of P sorbents would benefit from studies to understanding the fouling mechanisms in wastewater systems as well as the implementation of materials with antifouling properties. To ensure environmental sustainability, development of P-sorbents should consider principles of green chemistry when dealing with eutrophication and nutrient pollution while trying to tackle the challenging issues related to P recovery, reuse, and pollution prevention. While the principles of green chemistry are generally applicable to all aspects of research and development,89 achieving sustainability in nanotechnology is still an area that needs to be addressed.90 Only a few reports have highlighted green approaches for the synthesis of P-capture materials.91-94 Implementation of nanotechnology-enabled materials in wastewater treatment is not risk-free. The potential environmental impact of engineered materials represents a concern for toxicologists.95 From this perspective, it is important to assess toxicity characteristics of developed P sorbents, evaluate potential leaching and dissolution during use and consider the overall environmental impact of disposed materials. Many of the reported approaches do not consider the environmental health and safety implications of these materials. Variable levels of toxicity have been associated with the exposure to carbon-based nanomaterials,96 magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles,97 titanium dioxide nanoparticles,98 nano-sized aluminum and aluminum oxide,99 manganese oxide micro and nanoparticles,100 nano- and micro-sized lanthanum oxide.101 There is limited information about risks associated with exposure to more novel materials such as nanostructured metal-organic frameworks and nanocomposites.102 Although these materials

have been successfully proven as viable sorbents for P, there is still a need to assess potential hazards associated with their use within water and wastewater treatment technologies.103 In the following section we review the main classes of porous sorbents, their properties and applications for the removal, recovery and conversion of P from environmental wastewaters.

NANOPOROUS SORBENTS FOR THE REMOVAL AND RECOVERY OF P The many different types of nanoscale materials that can be created with defined pore structure (size, shape, connectivity, etc.) and controllable physicochemical properties can be used as adsorbents with high sorption capacity and improved P-removal efficiency. These can be used in a variety of configurations, as sorbents, catalysts, membranes or filters and can be used in urban, municipal, domestic and agricultural wastewater.104 Advantages of nanoporous materials include high surface area, large pore volume, and the possibility to control charge, accessibility and availability of surface functional groups105-106 all of which enhance chemical activity and adsorption capacity of contaminants within their structure. The surface of nanosorbents that can be carefully designed or modified to provide binding sites for P making these materials promising candidates for the removal and recovery of P-containing compounds.

Carbon-based materials. Carbonaceous-based materials, such as activated carbon (AC), graphene (GR), carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are some of the most promising materials for contaminant adsorption and wastewater treatment. Their applications can be extended to adsorption and removal of P. Activated carbon is the most widely used adsorbent to remove contaminants from water matrices.107 The highly porous adsorptive structure, high specific surface area and pore volumes, relatively low cost and fast adsorption kinetics provide excellent properties for water treatment processes, with demonstrated capabilities for removal of organic pollutants, volatile organic compounds, dyes and heavy metals.108 AC is produced by activation of carbon-containing materials using chemical agents (e.g. potassium hydroxide) or by physical processes (high temperature steam). Agricultural waste can also be used as a sustainable source.109 Following application, AC can be regenerated or disposed as waste.108 To increase Pbinding selectivity over other anions that may be present in water such as Cl-, NO3-, CO32-, and SO42-, the carbon is typically modified with metals or metal oxides/hydroxides that have high P15 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

binding capacity. Lanthanum (La) has high affinity toward phosphates by forming La phosphates at the surface and therefore La is one of the most commonly used surface modifiers to increase P-binding affinity.110 ACF-LaO adsorbents are characterized by good chemical and physical stability. Examples of sorbents for P removal include activated carbon modified with La hydroxide (ACF-LaOH)111 and oxide (ACF-La).112 Incorporation of La hydroxide into the framework of activated carbon fibers was shown to enhance phosphate adsorption. The strategy can be applied to other carbon based materials. The content of La in ACF-LaOH determined by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) was 52.9 mg/g. After adsorption of phosphate, the La content decreased to 47 mg/g indicating some loss of La by precipitation. Long term use of the sorbent may also results in damage and potential release of fibers from the adsorbent surface. Other forms of carbon, like GR and its oxidized form, graphene oxide (GO), as well as CNTs, are emerging as promising sorbents for the removal of P. These materials have high specific surface area and abundant binding sites, oxygen functionalities, high thermal and chemical stability, and can be easy functionalized to enhance adsorption/separation processes for the removal of pollutants.113-116 However, the nonspecific interactions between GR/GO nanosheets and the adsorbate might result in poor selectivity. To enhance adsorption capacity and improve selectivity for phosphate anions over other interfering ions present in water, these materials are often modified with organics, metals, metal oxides/hydroxides or magnetic particles.77,

Examples of GR/GO-based adsorbents that have demonstrated P-removal

capabilities include: zirconia-functionalized GO (Zr-GO)119, and expanded graphite (EG) loaded with lanthanum oxide (EG-LaO)120. Zirconia-functionalized GO (Zr-GO)121 was synthesized and its adsorption performance for the removal of phosphate in water was evaluated by batch and column tests. The use of nanosized ZrO2 dispersed on the graphite oxide surface enhanced phosphate adsorption capability on Zr-GO compared with GO. Phosphate binding was supressed by increasing pH. Regeneration and reuse of the sorbent was demonstrated over 11 consecutive adsorption–desorption cycles using alkali treatment by a 0.1 M NaOH solution. The equilibrium data fitted with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm indicated monolayer adsorption of phosphate on the surface of GO-Zr. In other studies, zirconia-functionalized graphite oxide absorbent demonstrated good performance for the removal of phosphate.121 Toxic anhydrous toluene and a N2 atmosphere were used in the synthesis, which made the preparation procedure complex and difficult to implement at a large scale. An alternative one-step hydrothermal preparation method 16 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

of zirconium-loaded reduced graphene oxide (RGO-Zr) sorbent was demonstrated with high adsorption ability for phosphate removal122. Expanded graphite (EG) is another possible material that demonstrated high adsorption capacity. The maximum phosphate adsorption capacity of EG loaded with lanthanum oxide (EG-LaO)123 calculated using the Langmuir model was 12.6 mg/g. In the presence of interfering ions such as F-, Cl-, NO3-, CO32-, and SO42- adsorption of phosphate decreased due to competition of these ions for the same binding sites as phosphate. Mahdavi et al., studied the removal of phosphate from aqueous solutions by using CuO and CNTs.124 The phosphate sorption capacities in absence of competing anions were 15.4 and 23.9 mg/g (PO43−-P) for CNTs and CuO, respectively. Despite promising characteristics in water decontamination, the use of CNTs and multiwalled CNTs (MWCNTs), NPs and nanocomposites, their potential release can alter diversity of bacterial community in wastewater125 and therefore toxicity should be further evaluated when considering the use of these sorbents for large scale applications.

Biomass-derived sorbents. Along with conventional carbonaceous nanomaterials, biomassderived materials have received a great deal of interest as a cost effective and environmentally friendly approach to remove phosphate from wastewaters.66 Biomass-derived carbons or biochar have high porosity and a large surface area. These are commonly synthesized by pyrolysis from widely available and renewable feedstock. Common sources of carbon from biomass that have been explored for P-removal include: refined aspen wood fiber,126 coir path,127 eggshell waste,128 and Staphylococcus xylosus biomass,129 and a modified carbon residue from biomass.130 Engineered biochar prepared from Mg-enriched tomato tissues as sorbents for P removal from aqueous solutions has been also reported.131 Dolochar, a solid waste produced in the sponge iron industry has demonstrated high P-removal efficiency.132 Other promising adsorbents include modified wheat residue,133 activated fruit juice (Citrus limetta) residue, rice husk134 and agrowaste rice husk ash,135 as well as activated sewage sludge.136 The main limitation of biochar is the leakage of P under different environmental conditions which can affect eutrophication137-140. For example, the release of P from biochar by two types of Lysinibacillus strains (Lysinibacillus sphaericus D-8 and Lysinibacillus fusiformis A-5) reached 54% and 47%, respectively. In addition, the surface and physicochemical properties of the biochar have changed during the adsorption process which may be caused by microbial activity.141 About 2.2 mg g−1 P was 17 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

released from a raw biochar (contained 4.7 mg P g−1) at an initial pH of 9.0 in the first 8 h. The release of P (orthophosphate) was significantly enhanced by coexisting anions Cl-, NO3- or SO42due to competitive ion exchange effects.138 Adsorption on these materials is achieved by specific interactions between the phosphate molecules and carbonaceous network, modified with P-selective sorbents, as discussed earlier. These include composites with layered hydroxides, nanostructured metal oxides or the carbon network impregnated with La to increase sorption capacity.7, 126 Figure 3 summarizes possible mechanisms for phosphate adsorption on pristine and modified porous carbonaceous materials, selected here as model sorbent. Similar mechanisms occur on other sorbents such as double layer hydroxides, metal oxides and polymer composites.

Figure 3. Schematic representation summarizing possible mechanisms for phosphate adsorption on pristine and modified nanoporous sorbents.

Silica-based materials: mesoporous silica. Ordered mesoporous silica (SiO2) with pore sizes between 2-50 nm and silica-ceramic materials have attracted significant interest as porous sorbents for environmental applications due to their low toxicity, structural stability and chemical resistance.142 Mesoporous silica functionalized with metal-chelate ligands showed excellent anion exchange behavior for arsenate, molybdate, and chromate.143-144 Silica gels have been modified with siloxane (Si-O-Si) or silanol groups (Si-OH) to enhance hydroxyl 18 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

functionalities and provide coordination sites for binding of phosphate. Functionalization with amine groups (mono, di or tri, i.e., N-silane) has also been shown to enhance adsorption of phosphate on mesoporous silica.145 Cationic metal−EDA complexes anchored inside mesoporous silica MCM-41 supports (Cu(II)−EDA-SAMMS and Fe(III)−EDA-SAMMS) demonstrated high sorption performance for phosphate anions in batch experiments146. The adsorption of phosphate was pH dependent, increasing with increasing pH from 1 to 6.5 and decreasing above pH of 6.5. The material displayed rapid sorption rate (99% of phosphate removal within 1 min) and the ability to remove low concentrations of phosphate to ∼10 µg/L, which is lower than the EPA’s established freshwater contaminant level for phosphorus (20 µg/L). Rapid phosphate sorption was explained by the rigid and open pore structure of the mesoporous silica, allowing easy access of phosphate anions to the binding sites.146 The adsorption was affected by high ionic strength (0.1 M NaCl) but it was relatively unaffected by bicarbonate, sulfate and citrate anions. In another work, La-doped mesoporous hollow SiO2 spheres with an ordered hexagonal mesoporous structure enabled removal of phosphate with a removal capacity of 47.9 mg P/g when silica was loaded with 22.4% La. The mesoposous structure provided fast adsorption kinetics with phosphate removal capacity of 99.7%.31 High removal rates were also obtained with SiO2 NPs deposited on activated carbon nanocomposites.147 Nanomaterials of magnesium hydrosilicate Mg3Si2O5(OH)4 having an interlamellar structure enabled recovery of phosphate and ammonium from wastewater148 with adsorbing capacities of ~19 mg/g for phosphate and 7.8 mg/g for ammonium. The phosphate sorption characteristics of mesoporous silica-based, metal oxides/hydroxides/sulfate and carbon-based materials have been reviewed recently by Huang et al.149

Zeolites. Zeolites are porous aluminum silicates with an opened framework architecture of [SiO4]4- and [AlO4]5- and high cation exchange and ion adsorption capacity allowing for the removal of inorganic ions, trace and radioactive elements in water purification applications150151

ions increases their P-sorption properties making them valuable materials for remediation of Penriched waters.152-153 A zeolitic material synthesized from fly ash and its calcium-modified form demonstrated phosphate-sorption capacities of 57±5 and 203±11 mg P-PO4/g for the native and Ca-zeolite sorbent154.

groups of the zeolitic structure originally present as Al oxides, or through formation of Caphosphate phases, mainly brushite. The process is pH dependent and showed a maximum sorption capacity at pH 8.154 Phosphate removal efficiency of a synthetic Al3+ activated zeolite (HUD) was shown to be affected by coexisting ions.69 Using the Al-HUD system, ions like Cl-, SO42- and NO3- slightly improved removal rate through outer-sphere complexation with Pbinding sites while fluorides (F-) showed reduced removal capacity. Hybrid adsorbents of a zeolite from coal fly and lanthanum hydroxide (La-ZFA) reached an absorption capacity of 66.09 mg P/g through phosphate binding to LaOH and showed 97.3% removal efficiency of phosphate from lake water and 97.9% from a wastewater effluent. The process was affected by presence of anions (Cl-, NO3-, SO42- and HCO3-).94, 136, 153 Phosphate-sorption mechanism on zeolites and the sorbent-phosphate interactions involving charged AlOH sites for hydroxylated, neutral and protonated forms at different pH values can be depicted as:69

Metal oxides and hydroxides. Metal oxides and hydroxides of iron155-156, zirconium157-158, aluminum,159 and manganese (IV)160 are some of the most widely studied materials for P adsorption, removal and recovery via Lewis acid based interactions and ion exchange mechanisms. The interest in these sorbents originates from their amphoteric characteristics, chemical stability and cost effective synthesis.83 While these materials can be used a sorbents by themselves, their capacity can be increased by loading them on high surface area materials like graphene,111 mixing with other oxides, or by doping with La. These composite structures can remove phosphates through combined surface adsorption, complexation and ligand exchange mechanisms31. Removal of phosphates with La-doped oxides can be shown as:

The adsorption of phosphate on manganese dioxide (δMnO2) in a simple electrolyte solution (0.7 M NaCl) and seawater was shown to occur through a surface complexation model with formation of outer-sphere phosphate complexes on the surface of δMnO2. Performance of this system in seawater varied with pH, temperature, and salinity.160 SO42- and humic acid were found to suppress adsorption at low pH but had no effects in the pH of seawater, while Ca2+ and Mg2+ enhanced adsorption at pH > 4 due to changes in surface charge and phosphate speciation at different pH values.161 High adsorption capacity of 588.4 mg/g was obtained with nanosized magnesium hydroxide impregnated on high surface area graphitized mesocarbon obtained from waste, which promoted multilayer adsorption.162 Precipitation of the metal ion with the phosphate could limit recyclability and reuse of these complexes for agricultural purposes.163 Safety considerations related to the potential release of transition-metals in the environments are lacking and should be further studied. Iron oxide NPs are another class of oxides that have shown high P-adsorption capacity. These oxides provide added magnetic capabilities which facilitate facile removal and recovery through magnetic action. P-removal can be achieved on zerovalent iron164 and on magnetic NPs coated with humic acid,165 impregnated within nanosized La hydroxides.77,166 or mixed with other oxides such as core-shell Ce-Ti@Fe3O4 NPs.167 Phosphate adsorption capacities of 28.9 mg/g (at pH 6) were obtained with humic acid coated magnetic NPs, and 116.3 mg/g (at pH 6-8) with nanosize La-doped magnetic graphene nanocomposites.168 Functionality of the La-doped composite was demonstrated for P-removal from river and sewage water. Adding polymeric coatings on magnetic cores (i.e., nano-magnetic polymers) (NMPs) has been shown to enhance stability of nano-dispersions and improve adsorption capacity. For example, a series of tetraethylenepentamine-functionalized core-shell nanomagnetic Fe3O4 (TEPA-Fe3O4-NMPs) demonstrated more effective P-removal when the polymer was used to stabilize the particles.169 A sandwiched 2D MXene-iron oxide (MXI) material, prepared by selectively exfoliating an Al layer followed by magnetic ferric oxide intercalation, exhibited high capture ability for trace phosphate sequestration.170 Compared with commercial adsorbents, the MXI nanocomposite 21 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

demonstrated fast separation ability within 120 s and high treatment capacities of 2100 kg and 2400 kg per kg in simulated and real phosphate wastewaters. The high performance was explained by the structural morphology ferric oxide intercalation within the layers of MXene, widening the layer distance, and stimulating strong complexation of phosphate onto the embedded magnetic nanoparticles. Manganese oxides have been also explored for phosphate removal. Hydrous manganese oxide (HMO) is generally negatively charged at neutral pH and cannot effectively remove anionic pollutants such as phosphate. Pan et al., proposed a new strategy to enhance HMOmediated phosphate removal by immobilizing nano-HMO within a polystyrene anion exchanger (NS)171. The HMO@NS nanocomposite exhibited substantially enhanced phosphate removal in the presence of sulfate, chloride, and nitrate. The increased performance was attributed to the pHpzc shift from 6.2 for the bulky HMO to 10.5 for the encapsulated HMO nanoparticles, where HMO NPs are positively charged at neutral pH. The ammonium groups of NS also favor phosphate adsorption. Cerium oxide (CeO2) has received increasing interest as a promising sorbent for Premoval. The interest in CeO2 is due to its high surface charge density,172 rich functionalities, intrinsic surface reactivity, and rapid formation of cerium-phosphate complexes to their surface.173-174 CeO2 is a relatively inexpensive oxide and it has one of the lowest solubility in acidic and basic media among other oxides. Binary oxides with properly modulated ratios can display higher catalytic activities and sorption characteristics as compared to single component nanoparticles175. Su et al., developed a solvothermal process to synthesize a series of Ce/Zr binary oxide nanoadsorbents with high phosphate sorption characteristics. The highest phosphate adsorption capability of 112.2 mg/g was obtained for the mixed Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 oxide.176 Phosphate desorption was achieved by washing with a NaOH solution. Additional magnetic capabilities were obtained with mixed oxides core-shell CeO2-functionalized (Fe3O4@SiO2-CeO2)177 and (Fe3O4@SiO2@mCeO2)178 for achieving magnetic separation and recovery. Metal Oxide Frameworks (MOFs). Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are an emerging class of crystalline organic-inorganic hybrid materials with high porosity and tunable morphology.179 Their versatile three-dimensional framework with tunable pore size, interconnected pores and surface functionality provides a large specific surface area that can facilitate rapid and high 22 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

capacity adsorption for removal and decontamination applications. While most MOFs are investigated for gas sorption, investigations of their porous structure for the removal of pollutants from aqueous solutions are growing.180-181 To impart P-removal characteristics, MOFs have been modified with La, Zr or Fe, which provide specific active sites that can act as hosts receptors for P. Removal is attributed to electrostatic attraction between the La3+ and its complexation and ligand exchange reaction with H2PO4- in the pores of the MOFs structure with a maximum adsorption capacity of 142 mg/g from water.182 The adsorption kinetics followed a pseudosecond-order model and is pH dependent. The sorbent was recycled by elution with NaOH solution, achieving 90% regeneration after three adsorption-desorption cycles. Fe-based MOFs MIL-101 and NH2-MIL-101,71 and hollow magnetic Fe3O4@NH2-MIL-101(Fe) 183 demonstrated high sorption capacity for phosphate removal from eutrophic waters with maximum adsorption capacities of 107.7 and 124.4 mg·g−1, for MIL-101(Fe) and NH2-MIL-101(Fe), respectively. To prepare the Fe3O4@NH2-MIL-101(Fe), hollow porous magnetic (Fe3O4) was used as a template which was then coated with NH2-MIL-101(Fe) on its surface. The porous surface functionalized hollow structure has enabled selective removal and magnetic recovery of phosphates from aqueous solutions to concentrations of 45 ppb in 50 minutes.183 Zr-based MOFs were also demonstrated as highly selective adsorbents for the removal of P from water and urine.153 Another MOF, La-MOF-500, was designed to have a hierarchical micro/nano structure184 which provided a phosphate capture capacity of 173.8 mg P/g due to the high acessibility of lanthanum active sites. The La-MOF-500 was shown to remove phosphate to less than 10 µg P/L.

Polymeric materials. Surface charged polymeric materials can be used as sorbents on supporting materials to enhance adsorption properties and permeability of phosphate ions. Addition of polymeric coatings on magnetic cores (i.e., nano-magnetic polymers) (NMPs) has been shown to enhance stability of nano-dispersions and improve phosphate adsorption capacity of a series of tetraethylenepentamine-functionalized core-shell nanomagnetic Fe3O4 (TEPAFe3O4-NMPs)185.

anion exchanger, D-201 exhibited enhanced phosphate adsorption in the presence of competing anions (Cl-, SO42-, NO3-, HCO3-, and SiO32-), with 2−4 times greater performance than a commercial Fe(III) oxide-based nanocomposite HFO-201.186 Other polymeric materials have been used as sorbents in adsorptive filtration media obtained by coating a filter or column materials with polymers, so that it can act simultaneously as a separation media and an adsorbent. Du et al. reported a functional polymeric ligand exchanger (PLE) for the removal of nitrate and phosphate from water down to 0.1 ppm, obtained by incorporation of La3+ into a Dowex ion-exchange resin.187 The column was regenerated by elution with 0.1 M hydrochloric acid. In another study, mixed metal oxide (Fe-Ti bimetal oxide) were coated on sulfonated polymer beads for enhanced phosphorus removal from membrane bioreactor effluents188. The adsorption capacity of the coated beads was substantially enhanced upon Ti doping, which may be due to the presence of more positively charged surfaces. The selectivity for phosphate ions against Cl−, NO3−, and SO42− was high, with a selectivity factor higher than 25, but less selective against bicarbonate and organic materials. A commonly used biopolymer, chitosan that contains multiple reactive functional groups has been used to prepare polymeric composites, beads and resins for phosphate removal, Examples include: polymeric composites with chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol (PEG/chitosan and PVA/chitosan),189 chitosan beads cross‐linked with glutaraldehyde (GA) and epichlorohydrin (EP),190 chitosan-melamine-glutaraldehyde resins (QCMGR)191 and chitosan supported bentonite (CSBent) with multivalent metal ions like Zr4+, Fe3+ and Ca2+).192 In addition of polyelectrolytes, a variety of polymeric hydrogels have been developed for removal of contaminants through electrostatic interactions. Fast removal of ammonium ions in a pH range from 3 to 8 was achieved using a hydrogel consisting of polyvinyl alcohol, acrylic acid (AA) and tourmaline (Tm) with an entangled tri-dimensional network.193 Adsorption of both ammonium and phosphate ions in a pH range between 4 to 9 was demonstrated using a protein-grafted poly(potassium acrylate)/polyvinyl alcohol (FP-g-PKA/PVA) hydrogel produced through graft copolymerization.194 Several hybrid polymer nanocomposites have been reported for phosphate removal,

Supramolecular receptors. Supramolecular receptors engineered to bind and release nutrients are a growing class of materials with promising P-binding properties that could be incorporated in porous sorbents. Several types of P-binding receptors have been reported. Johnson, Hayley and collaborators have synthesized an anion-modulated supramolecular switch that selectively binds dihydrogen phosphate, H2PO4-.200 The receptor consists of a bisurea-based anion bearing a bipyridine core unit that is capable to preferentially coordinate H2PO4-. Flood and collaborators have reported an acid-based multistate switching of organophosphates in cyanostar complexes, which could be used in the future as potential receptors for the binding and release of organophosphates.201 Phosphates oligomerization in cyanostar macrocycles induced formation of stackable higher order assemblies.65 The principle concept can be expanded in the future to create molecular assemblies for phosphates recognition upon complexation. Other materials such as high surface mesoporous cross-linked β-cyclodextrin polymers developed by Dichtel et. al.202 for removal of organic micropollutants featuring easier and cheaper regeneration could be adapted to P-containing compounds with potential for low-energy, flow-through water purification. Pierre and collaborators developed a gadolinium-based supramolecular receptor that has the ability to catch and release phosphate from water.78 The complex has two open coordination sites that bind phosphate in a pH-dependent manner, providing opportunities for the design of pH-dependent catch-and-release systems for the removal of phosphate from surface waters. In water at neutral pH the complex binds phosphate with high affinity (Ka = 1.3 × 104) via the formation of a ternary complex in which one phosphate replaces both inner-sphere water molecules. Under strong acidic conditions, the complex releases phosphate (Figure 4). This pH variability has been used as a recycling scheme, demonstrating reusability for at least 10 cycles. The complex was selective for phosphate over other anions, including HCO3–, HCO2–, CH3CO2–, SO42–, NO3–, NO2–, BrO3–, AsO4–, F–, Cl–, and Br– and, to a lesser extent for ClO3–.

MATERIALS FOR ORGANOPHOSPHATE PESTICIDES (OPPS) REMOVAL

While this review focused primarily on materials for the removal of inorganic P, adsorbents for removal of organic P are also of interest as many P-containing compounds such as the class of organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) are used widely in agriculture. Adsorption of organophosphates (paraoxon, diazinon, and structurally related compounds) was achieved on porous hierarchical organosilicate sorbents such as diethylbenzene-bridged organosilicate.28 Gu et al., fabricated Zr-based MOFs of UiO-67 and showed effective adsorption and removal of OPPs, glyphosate (GP) and glufosinate (GF), from aqueous solutions.230 Nearly 100 % adsorption in 1 h of OPs reported with humic acid-modified silica gel used as adsorbents for the removal of OPs in hexane. 231 Adsorption capacities of 456 and 57.1 mg/g OPP dimethoate was achieved by adsorption onto Au nanospheres and nanorods, respectively.232. Nanostructured Ti/Ce oxides and their composites enabled effective reactive adsorption of toxic OP parathion methyl and dimethyl methylphosphonate.233 OP flame retardants (OPFRs) removal from water was reported using ACs.234 through a sorption process involving hydrophobic, electrostatic, hydrogen bonding, and π-π interactions. The ACs was successfully regenerated and reused at least four times with stable sorption capacity. Other studies report the use of NaX zeolite for adsorption of trimethyl phosphate (TMP),235 graphene-coated silica for adsorption of eleven different OPPs,236 cellulose/graphene composite (CGC) for triazine,

CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE OUTLOOK One of the most challenging sustainability problems faced by society today is the quality and safety of water resources. Application of P-based fertilizers and pesticides, and their excessive accumulation by ecosystems has generated increased occurrence of water eutrophication which generates an overgrowth of harmful algal blooms and degradation of water quality. The management and control of P-containing compounds has important environmental and economic implications. Over 50% of the P used in fertilizers (~ 8 million tons per year) is lost through soil leaching and erosion from farms.246 Moreover, food wastes accounts for 1 million tons loss of P. Nationally, more than 80,000 miles of streams and rivers are impaired due to nutrient pollution, which is considered a substantial under-estimate because only 25% of these water bodies have been assessed. Similarly, over 2.5 million acres of U.S. lakes, reservoirs, and ponds are impaired due to nutrient pollution, but only ~43 % of these areas have been assessed.246 The prevention of

algal growth by removing the excess of P in freshwater and marine water would be beneficial in securing the safety of water ecosystems and reducing the cost of water treatment processes. Employment of P-capturing systems in regions with oversupply and the treatment of P-rich industrial effluents may help both reduce their damaging effects and create a source of recycled P. Recent technological advances promise improved efficiency of phosphate rock mining247 However, the inefficient use of P-based products in agricultural activities calls for improved fertilization approaches.248-249 It was suggested that agricultural activities can take advantage more efficiently of the P already present in the soil.250 Breeding of crops with lowered fertilization requirements or the development of fertilizers that can release P locally can also minimize the need for P and limit runoff in water bodies.251 This review summarized emerging classes of nanoporous materials that can be used as sorbents to capture, remove and recover P-containing compounds released during industrial and agricultural activities. Reducing the amount of these species in waste or run-off streams could result in i) improved water quality, ii) minimized risk, causes and consequences of water eutrophication, iii) provide opportunities for recycling and reuse of P-containing nutrients and fertilizers and iv) conservation of the limited P-resources. Nanoporous sorbents can be used to develop more efficient high performance water filtration and purification technologies for the recycling and management of P-containing nutrients in the environment. Their high sorption capacity can be used in the future to develop decision support systems for field-monitoring and rapid screening of region-specific P-content and determine a risk factor for implementing pollution prevention measures related to the excessive presence of these species. Recently reported supramolecular receptors that have shown to selectively bind phosphate at neutral pH and releasing it under acidic conditions78 could be grafted onto nanoporous sorbents to enhance P-removal capacity and increase selectivity. This area of research is still in its infancy and we anticipate that future work will study systems and devices based on nanoporous sorbents, some of which may contain selective receptors incorporated within or grafted on their surface. Preparation of new materials and a closer investigation of the adsorption mechanisms in realistic conditions are also needed to improve efficiency and speed up implementation of these new technologies in the environmental and agricultural fields. Other considerations are the cost, availability and large scale manufacturing of the adsorbent materials and that of the P-binding receptors for large scale applications. Research is also needed to establish stability and the 32 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

potential leaching risk of the adsorbent, its recyclability and reuse, and to evaluate the quality of the P recovered from separation and filtration operations to permit further reuse in agriculture. In addition to strategies for the recovery of P from wastewaters, there is growing interest to identifying alternative fertilizers and nutrient delivery systems.248 Popular approaches include the development of nutrient-based or nutrient-loaded nanomaterials that are engineered to provide slow and localized real-time release of nutrients. Increased interest is expected in designing nanoporous materials with controlled pore size, connectivity and functionality to increase nutrient loading, as well as developing more effective release mechanisms for the recovery and reuse. Future development of green and environmentally friendly sorbents and nutrient delivery systems is also of interest, as well as considerations of recyclability and reuse. There is also a need in the future for engineering solutions to integrate these materials into filtration membranes, columns and separation systems and to test these systems in realworld conditions in order to demonstrate efficiency and enable practical implementation. Successful implementation of these materials can reduce further contamination of water streams and potentially increase efficiency of agricultural practices.
