PPT-Implementing & Optimizing Phosphorus Removal at Activat

Grant Weaver Your Presenter gweavercleanwateropscom President The Water Planet Company Licensing Professional Engineer Wastewater Operator Education Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT . Phosphorus is largely retained in soil by a process called adsorption. . Soils . have a limited capacity to store phosphorus, and once the capacity of soil to adsorb phosphorus is exceeded, the excess will dissolve and move more freely with water either directly to a stream or downward to an aquifer. . Eric Smeltzer. eric.smeltzer@state.vt.us. Why is phosphorus a problem in lakes?. Low. Phosphorus. ~10 µg/L. Very high. Phosphorus. > 50 µg/L. High. phosphorus. Medium. phosphorus. Why are excessive algae a problem in lakes?. Alexandra Arntsen, Alison Foster, Scott Ritter. April 2011. Problem Statement:. . Excess phosphorus loading in Lake Champlain is affecting overall water quality through increased growth rates of photosynthetic aquatic plant life and the subsequent reduction of dissolved oxygen. . Geochemical Cycles continued. Objectives: . Describe the process of cycling phosphorus throughout environment. . Describe the role that fertilizer plays in both the nitrogen and phosphorus cycle. . What is phosphorus?. Joana Lapao Rocha. UCT, Prague . 1. Food Security. Phosphorus is irreplaceable and impossible to synthesize. Indispensable to maintain high agricultural yields .
