he excessive amount of phosphate in domestic wastewater treatment plant effluent must be removed to protect the natural environment of healthy aquatic ecosystem. Though a number of adsorption techniques with various low-cost adsorbent have been proposed, it is still ambiguous how the iron-coated was...
