Abstract
Deforestation of tropical rainforests is a major land use change that alters terrestrial biogeochemical cycling at local to global scales. Deforestation and subsequent reforestation are likely to impact soil phosphorus (P) cycling, which in P-limited ecosystems such as the Amazon basin has implications for long-term productivity. We used a 100-year replicated observational chronosequence of primary forest conversion to pasture, as well as a 13-year-old secondary forest, to test land use change and duration effects on soil P dynamics in the Amazon basin. By combining sequential extraction and P K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy with soil phosphatase activity assays, we assessed pools and process rates of P cycling in surface soils (0-10 cm depth). Deforestation caused increases in total P (135-398 mg kg-1 ), total organic P (Po ) (19-168 mg kg-1 ), and total inorganic P (Pi ) (30-113 mg kg-1 ) fractions in surface soils with pasture age, with concomitant increases in Pi fractions corroborated by sequential fractionation and XANES spectroscopy. Soil non-labile Po (10-148 mg kg-1 ) increased disproportionately compared to labile Po (from 4-5 to 7-13 mg kg-1 ). Soil phosphomonoesterase and phosphodiesterase binding affinity (Km ) decreased while the specificity constant (Ka ) increased by 83%-159% in 39-100y pastures. Soil P pools and process rates reverted to magnitudes similar to primary forests within 13 years of pasture abandonment. However, the relatively short but representative pre-abandonment pasture duration of our secondary forest may not have entailed significant deforestation effects on soil P cycling, highlighting the need to consider both pasture duration and reforestation age in evaluations of Amazon land use legacies. Although the space-for-time substitution design can entail variation in the initial soil P pools due to atmospheric P deposition, soil properties, and/or primary forest growth, the trend of P pools and process rates with pasture age still provides valuable insights.

Abstract
Ferrihydrite is one of the most reactive iron (Fe) (oxyhydr)oxides in soils, but the adsorption mechanisms of glyphosate, the most widely used herbicide, on ferrihydrite remain unknown. Here, we determined the adsorption mechanisms of glyphosate on pristine and Al-substituted ferrihydrites with aggregated and dispersed states using macroscopic adsorption experiments, zeta potential, phosphorus K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy, in situ attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy coupled with two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy, and multivariate curve resolution analyses. Aggregation of ferrihydrite decreases the glyphosate adsorption capacity. The partial substitution of Al in ferrihydrite inhibits glyphosate adsorption on aggregated ferrihydrite due to the decrease of external specific surface area, while it promotes glyphosate adsorption on dispersed ferrihydrite, which is ascribed to the increase of surface positive charge. Glyphosate predominately forms protonated and deprotonated, depending on the sorption pH, monodentate-mononuclear complexes (MMH1/MMH0, 77-90%) on ferrihydrites, besides minor deprotonated bidentate-binuclear complexes (BBH0, 23-10%). Both Al incorporation and a low pH favor the formation of the BB complex. The adsorbed glyphosate preferentially forms the MM complex on ferrihydrite and preferentially bonds with the Al-OH sites on Al-substituted ferrihydrite. These new insights are expected to be useful in predicting the environmental fate of glyphosate in ferrihydrite-rich environments.

Abstract
The effectiveness of amendments such as alum [Al2 (SO4 )3 ·18H2 O] in reducing phosphorus (P) loss to floodwater has been reported under summer conditions and laboratory-controlled environments, but not under actual spring weather conditions in cold climate regions with high diurnal temperature variations when potential for P losses is high. The effectiveness of alum in reducing P release under Manitoba spring weather conditions was evaluated in a 42-day experiment using 15-cm soil monoliths from eight agricultural soils, which were unamended or alum-amended (5 Mg ha-1 ) and flooded to a 10-cm head. Dissolved reactive P (DRP) concentrations and pH of porewater and floodwater were determined on flooding day and every 7 days after flooding (DAF). Porewater and floodwater DRP concentrations in unamended soils increased 1.4- to 4.5-fold, and 1.8- to 15.3-fold, respectively, from 7 to 42 DAF. In alum-amended soils, DRP concentrations averaged across soils was 43%-73% (1.0-2.0 mg L-1 ) lower in porewater, and 27%-64% (0.1-1.2 mg L-1 ) lower in floodwater than unamended soils during the flooding period. The reduction of DRP by alum was more pronounced under high fluctuating diurnal spring air temperature than with controlled air temperature (4°C) in a previous similar study. Acidic pH in porewater and floodwater due to alum did not persist over 7 days. This study showed that alum application is a viable option in reducing P released to floodwater in agricultural soils of cold regions where flooding-induced P loss is prevalent in the spring.

Correlation of Phosphorus Adsorption with Chemical Properties of Aluminum-Based Drinking Water Treatment Residuals Collected from Various Parts of the United States. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27217194.

Abstract
Over the past several decades, the value of drinking water treatment residuals (WTRs), a byproduct of the coagulation process during water purification, has been recognized in various environmental applications, including sustainable remediation of phosphorus (P)-enriched soils. Aluminum-based WTRs (Al-WTRs) are suitable adsorbent materials for P, which can be obtained and processed inexpensively. However, given their heterogeneous nature, it is essential to identify an easily analyzable chemical property that can predict the capability of Al-WTRs to bind P before soil amendment. To address this issue, thirteen Al-WTRs were collected from various geographical locations around the United States. The non-hazardous nature of the Al-WTRs was ascertained first. Then, their P adsorption capacities were determined, and the chemical properties likely to influence their adsorption capacities were examined. Statistical models were built to identify a single property to best predict the P adsorption capacity of the Al-WTRs. Results show that all investigated Al-WTRs are safe for environmental applications, and oxalate-extractable aluminum is a significant indicator of the P adsorption capacity of Al-WTRs (p-value = 0.0002, R2 = 0.7). This study is the first to report a simple chemical test that can be easily applied to predict the efficacy of Al-WTRs in binding P before their broadscale land application.

Abstract
While many nutrient recovery technologies target liquid waste streams, new strategies are required for effective phosphorus recovery from solid waste. This study reports an innovative ligand-enabled Donnan dialysis process to recover orthophosphate (P(V)) from alum-laden waste activated sludge (WAS). Four ligands, namely acetate, citrate, ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA), and oxalate, were evaluated for P(V) release from a synthetic sludge containing 5 mM P(V) and 25 mM Al(III) and a real, alum-laden WAS with similar contents. Citrate and EDTA released more than 95% of P(V) at doses of 30 mM, outperforming acetate and oxalate. The ligand-based solubilization strategy was coupled with Donnan dialysis to recover P(V) into a clean sodium chloride draw solution. After Donnan dialysis with the synthetic sludge, the P(V) recovery's order was as follows: EDTA (54.4%) > citrate (41.7%) > oxalate (4.3%). The P(V) recovery efficiencies were slightly lower for Donnan dialysis with real, alum-laden WAS, namely 45.1% and 25.2% for EDTA and citrate addition, respectively, due to competitive effects exerted by other dissolved species. These promising results successfully demonstrated the proof-of-concept for ligand-enabled Donnan dialysis.

Abstract
The environmental fate of antimony (Sb) is often strongly affected by adsorption, and the Sb isotope fractionation mechanism during adsorption has not been reported. Four batch experiments (kinetic, isothermal, effect of pH, and effect of coexisting anions) were conducted to evaluate the mechanism of Sb(V) adsorption to γ-Al2O3 and the fractionation of Sb isotopes. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analyses show Sb(V) adsorption on γ-Al2O3 occurs via outer-sphere surface complexation. The triple-layer model (TLM) effectively predicted the theoretical Sb adsorption amount under different pH conditions. The Sb isotope fractionation in the adsorption process can be divided into an initial kinetic stage (Rayleigh model, αadsorbed-aqueous = 0.99975 ± 0.00003) and subsequent isotopic equilibrium stage due to isotope exchange; however, no significant equilibrium isotope fractionation (Δ123Sbaqueous-adsorbed = ~0 ± 0.08‰) was evident by the end of the experiments. We propose the lack of significant equilibrium isotope fractionation in the effect of pH and isothermal experiments is due to Sb forming an outer-sphere complex on γ-Al2O3. This study reveals Sb equilibrium isotope fractionation does not occur during Sb(V) adsorption onto γ-Al2O3, providing a reference for the future study of Sb isotopes and furthering understanding of the Sb isotope fractionation mechanism.

Abstract
Specialist bacteria can synthesize nanoparticles from various metal ions in solution. Metal recovery with high efficiency can be achieved by metal-tolerant microorganisms that proliferate in a concentrated metal solution. In this study, we isolated bacteria (Pseudomonas sp. strain KKY-29) from a bacterial library collected from water near an abandoned mine in Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. KKY-29 was maintained in nutrient medium with lead acetate and synthesized hydrocerussite and pyromorphite nanoparticles inside the cell; KKY-29 also survived nanoparticle synthesis. Quantitative PCR analysis of genes related to phosphate metabolism showed that KKY-29 decomposed organic phosphorus to synthesize lead phosphate. KKY-29 also deposited various metal ions and synthesized metal nanoparticles when incubated in various metal salt solutions other than lead. The present study considers the development of biotechnology to recover lead as an economically valuable material.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pH adjustment of acidic red soils with lime materials is beneficial for the reduction of phosphorus (P) fixation. However, the reasons for varying levels of P activation after adding different lime materials have not been fully investigated. Therefore, this study examined changes in soil labile P and P forms after phosphate application to calcium carbonate (CaCO3 ) and dolomite amended red soil during a 120-day incubation period. Also change of P sorption properties in the amended soil samples from day 120 were examined through a sorption-desorption experiment. RESULTS The increase of soil H2 O-P and NaHCO3 -P in the CaCO3 and dolomite amended soil treatments was mainly ascribed to the decline of the NaOH-P. However, when compared with the control treatment after 120 days, soil Olsen-P significantly increased by 34% and 66% in the CaCO3 and dolomite treatments. The Hedley P fractionation results demonstrated that the CaCO3 application caused a notable increase of HCl-P (stable Ca-P), which was 88.4% higher than that in the dolomite treatment. However, the formation of stable P was strongly suppressed in the dolomite treatment due to the presence of magnesium (Mg), which was identified by the negative relationship between M3-Mg and HCl-P. In line with these findings, P sorption-desorption work showed weaker P binding energy in the dolomite treatment relative to the CaCO3 treatment. CONCLUSION In terms of increasing P availability in red soil, this study suggests that dolomite should be used to substitute CaCO3 in order to reduce the soil P fixation. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Adsorption is an effective method for the removal of inorganic and organic contaminants and has been commonly used as a pretreatment method to improve contaminant removal and control flux during membrane filtration. Over the last two decades, many researchers have reported the use of hybrid systems comprising various adsorbents and different types of membranes, such as nanofiltration (NF), ultrafiltration (UF), and microfiltration (MF) membranes, to remove contaminants from water. However, a comprehensive evaluation of the removal mechanisms and effects of the operating conditions on the transport of contaminants through hybrid systems comprising various adsorbents and NF, UF, or MF membranes has not been performed to date. Therefore, a systematic review of contaminant removal using adsorption-membrane hybrid systems is critical, because the transport of inorganic and organic contaminants via the hybrid systems is considerably affected by the contaminant properties, water quality parameters, and adsorbent/membrane physicochemical properties. Herein, we provide a comprehensive summary of the most recent studies on adsorption-NF/UF/MF membrane systems using various adsorbents and membranes for contaminant removal from water and wastewater and highlight the future research directions to address the current knowledge gap.

Abstract
Saharan dust is an important phosphorus (P) supply to remote and oligotrophic parts of the oceans and American lowland tropical rainforests. Phosphorus speciation in aeolian dust ultimately controls the release and bioavailability of P after dust deposition, but the speciation in Saharan dust and its change during the trans-Atlantic transport remains unclear. Using P K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy, we showed that with increasing dust traveling distance from the Sahara Desert to Cape Verde and to Puerto Rico, about 570 and 4000 km, respectively, the proportion of Ca-bound P (Ca-P), including both apatite and non-apatite forms, decreased from 68-73% to 50-71% and to 21-37%. The changes were accompanied by increased iron/aluminum-bound P proportion from 14-25% to 23-46% and to 44-73%, correspondingly. Laboratory simulation experiments suggest that the changes in P speciation can be ascribed to increasing degrees of particle sorting and atmospheric acidification during dust transport. The presence of relatively soluble non-apatite Ca-P in the Cape Verde dust but not in the Puerto Rico dust is consistent with the higher P water solubility of the former than the latter. Our findings provide insights into the controls of atmospheric processes on P speciation, solubility, and stability in Saharan dust.

Li W, Ouyang F, An G, Yang C, Zhong R, Xiao F, Peng D, Wang D. Mechanism insight into the role of clay particles on enhancing phosphate removal by ferrate compared with ferric salt. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 28:45414-45421.

Abstract
The application of ferrate (Fe(VI)) and ferric chloride as coagulants for treating phosphate wastewater in the presence of kaolin clay particles was comparatively studied. The phosphate removal processes by ferrate and ferric chloride assisted with kaolin clay particles were investigated under different Fe/P molar ratios. At neutral pH, complete removal of phosphates by ferrate and ferric chloride was observed at 2:1 and 6:1 of Fe/P molar ratio, respectively. The effect of kaolin clay particles on the phosphate removal process was discussed by zeta potential, size particle distribution, FTIR and XPS. We showed that with the increase of Fe/P molar ratio, the interaction intensity of kaolin clay particles with Fe flocs was decreased by ferric chloride coagulation while firstly increased and then decreased by ferrate. This depends on the Fe species with positive charge from ferric chloride hydrolysis and ferrate decomposition. Phosphate can inhibit the formation of FeOH2+ and Fe(OH)2+ in the ferric chloride hydrolysis but promote the formation of FeOOH and Fe(OH)2+ in the ferrate decomposition. Kaolin clay particles can more remarkably promote phosphate removal by ferrate than by ferric chloride.

Abstract
Phosphorus (P) fixation is a global problem for soil fertility and negatively impacts agricultural productivity. This study characterizes P desorption of already fixed P by using KCl, KNO3, histidine, and malic acid as inorganic and organic compounds, which are quite common in soil. Goethite, gibbsite, and ferrihydrite, as well as hydroxide mixtures with varying Fe- and Al-ratio were selected as model substances of crystalline and amorphous Fe- and Al-hydroxides. Especially two- and multi-component hydroxide systems are common in soils, but they have barely been included in desorption studies. Goethite showed the highest desorption in the range from 70.4 to 81.0%, followed by gibbsite with values in the range from 50.7 to 42.6%. Ferrihydrite had distinctive lower desorption in the range from 11.8 to 1.9%. Within the group of the amorphous Fe-Al-hydroxide mixtures, P desorption was lowest at the balanced mixture ratio for 1 Fe: 1 Al, increased either with increasing Fe or Al amount. Precipitation and steric effects were concluded to be important influencing factors. More P was released by crystalline Fe-hydroxides, and Al-hydroxides of varying crystallinity, but desorption using histidine and malic acid did not substantially influence P desorption compared to inorganic constituents.

Abstract
High phosphorus (P) saturation arising from historic P inputs to protected vegetable fields (PVFs) drives high P mobilisation to waterbodies. Amendment of soils with alum has shown potential in terms of fixing labile P and protecting water quality. The present 15 month pot experiment investigated P stabilisation across single alum application (Alum-1 treatment, 20 g alum/kg soil incorporated into soil before the maize was sown), alum split applications (Alum-4 treatment, 5 g alum/kg soil incorporated into soil before each crop was sown i.e. 4 × 5 g/kg) and soil only treatment (Control). Results showed that the Alum-1 treatment caused the strongest stabilisation of soil labile P after maize plant removal, whereas the P stabilisation effect was gradually weakened due to the transformation of soil non-labile P to labile P and the reduced active Al3+ in soil solution. For the Alum-4 treatment, soil labile P decreased gradually with each crop planting and was lower than the Alum-1 treatment at the end of the final crop removal, without any impairment on plant growth. The better P stabilisation at the end of Alum-4 treatment was closely correlated with a progressive supply of Al3+ and a gradual decrease of pH, which resulted in higher contents of poorly-crystalline Al, Fe and exchangeable Ca. These aspects were conducive to increasing the soil P stabilisation and phosphate sorption. In terms of management, growers in continuous cropping systems could utilise split alum applications as a strategy to alleviate P losses in high-P enriched calcareous soil.

Abstract
Phosphorus-modified siliceous zeolites, or P-zeosils, catalyze the selective dehydration of biomass derivatives to platform chemicals such as p-xylene and 1,3-butadiene. Water generated during these reactions is a critical factor in catalytic activity, but the effects of hydrolysis on the structure, acidity, and distribution of the active sites are largely unknown. In this study, the P-sites in an all-silica self-pillared pentasil (P-SPP) with a low P-loading (Si/P = 27) were identified by solid-state 31P NMR using frequency-selective detection. This technique resolves overlapping signals for P-sites that are covalently bound to the solid phase, as well as oligomers confined in the zeolite but not attached to the zeolite. Dynamic Nuclear Polarization provides the sensitivity necessary to conduct 29Si-filtered 31P detection and 31P-31P correlation experiments. The aforementioned techniques allow us to distinguish sites with P-O-Si linkages from those with P-O-P linkages. The spectra reveal a previously unappreciated diversity of P-sites, including evidence for surface-bound oligomers. In the dry P-zeosil, essentially all P-sites are anchored to the solid phase, including mononuclear sites and dinuclear sites containing the [Si-O-P-O-P-O-Si] motif. The fully-condensed sites evolve rapidly when exposed to humidity, even at room temperature. Partially hydrolyzed species have a wide range of acidities, inferred from their calculated LUMO energies. Initial cleavage of some P-O-Si linkages results in an evolving mixture of surface-bound mono- and oligonuclear P-sites with increased acidity. Subsequent P-O-P cleavage leads to a decrease in acidity as the P-sites are eventually converted to H3PO4. The ability to identify acidic sites in P-zeosils and to describe their structure and stability will play an important role in controlling the activity of microporous catalysts by regulating their water content.

Abstract
Phosphate competes with arsenate for sorption sites on poorly crystalline iron and aluminum (hydr)oxides. The competition has implications e.g. for the management of arsenic-contaminated soil and water. Phosphate competition with arsenate on mixed phases containing both iron and aluminum (hydr)oxides has rarely been investigated. Here, the phosphate competition with arsenate on mixtures of poorly crystalline aluminum hydroxide (Alhox) and ferrihydrite (Fh), was investigated in batch experiments at pH 6.5. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) was performed on the phosphorus and arsenic K edges, which offered a unique insight in the partitioning of arsenate and phosphate on mixed Alhox-Fh sorbents. Under the studied conditions the sorption capacity of the mixed sorbents (per mol Al or Fe) increased at higher Alhox to Fh ratios. The XAS measurements provided direct evidence that phosphate competed more effectively with arsenate for sorption sites on Alhox than on Fh. For example, in a mixture with 50% of both sorbents and with similar additions of arsenate and phosphate, 71% of the oxyanions adsorbed on Fh and 46% on Alhox were arsenate. Consequently, phosphate may mobilize arsenate more easily from mixed iron-aluminum matrices that are rich in aluminum.

Abstract
Highly weathered acidic soils tend to have high phosphorus adsorption rates. Studying the differential phosphorus adsorption and desorption characteristics of these soils is of great significance to improve phosphorus utilization efficiency and reduce soil phosphorus loss in agricultural management. Erosive weathered granite soil (TL-Tillage layer, LL-Laterite layer, and SL-Sand layer) in Anji County, Zhejiang Province were selected for batch experiments and phosphorus fractionation test. The soil properties that are generally considered to have a greater impact on phosphorus adsorption and desorption are also studied. Derived from the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, the maximum absorption capacity (Qmax) of phosphorus in TL soil was greater than that in LL and SL soil. With a pH of 4.3-5.0, the three soils have the most phosphorus adsorption. The desorption ratio (Dr) in the SL soil is larger than the LL and TL soil. Six key soil property indicators can fit Qmax and Dr values well. Al-P is the main fraction in the phosphorus adsorption-desorption process. The particle size classification (PSC) method can be used to accurately calculate soil-specific surface area. The results of the soil phosphorus adsorption-desorption test can be used as an explanation of the results of artificial rainfall tests. Our results reveal the differential adsorption-desorption mechanism of eroded weathered granite soil, and provide a reference for selecting soil indicators for soil adsorption-desorption studies in different regions.

Abstract
In China, excessive phosphorus (P) application in protected vegetable fields has led to high legacy P stores. Soil amendment with alum or dolomite is one of many best management practices (BMPs) used to reduce P losses in calcareous soils. However, both the kinetics and mechanisms of P sorption and soil available P in amended soils are understudied. Herein, both aspects were looked at under controlled conditions. Firstly, a sorption study which coupled P concentrations with poorly-crystalline Al hydroxides and dolomite was conducted. Results from this batch experiment showed that P sorption on poorly-crystalline Al hydroxides was homogenous and occurred mainly via displacement of inner-sphere hydroxyl (Al-OH) instead of the formation of AlPO4. However, the amount of sorbed P reached maximum sorption of 73.1 mg g-1 and did not change with further increase in P concentration. It was observed that P adsorbed onto the dolomite surface at low P concentrations, whereas hydroxyl replacement and uneven cluster precipitation of Ca3(PO4)2 occurred at high P concentrations. A second 90 day incubation experiment investigated changes to soil available P and sorption-desorption across variable rates of amendments (0-50 g kg-1). Results showed that alum amendment at a rate of 50 g kg-1 decreased soil CaCl2-P and Olsen-P concentrations by 91.9% and 57.8%, respectively. However, Olsen-P increased when the dolomite rates were <20 g kg-1. Phosphorus sorption-desorption of the amended soil showed alum had higher P sorption efficiency than dolomite at low addition rates (<10 g kg-1). However, soil amended with high dolomite rates (>10 g kg-1) could sorb more P in comparison with alum when P concentrations were increased. The P status of the amended soil was closely connected to the P sorption mechanisms on mineral amendments, soil P concentrations and soil properties.
