Emerging electro-driven technologies for phosphorus enrichment and recovery from wastewater: A review.

• A comprehensive review of electro-driven technologies for phosphorus enrichment was provided. • Enrichment rate and energy consumption were important indicators for phosphorus enrichment. • Phosphorus enrichment promoted p recovery efficiency and vivianite formation. • Prospect and directions of electro-driven technologies for phosphorus enrichment and recovery were presented. The recovery of phosphorus from wastewater is a critical step in addressing the scarcity of phosphorus resources. Electro-driven technologies for phosphorus enrichment have gathered significant attention due to their inherent advantages, such as mild operating conditions, absence of secondary pollution, and potential integration with other technologies. This study presents a comprehensive review of recent advancements in the field of phosphorus enrichment, with a specific focus on capacitive deionization and electrodialysis technologies. It highlights the underlying principles and effectiveness of electro-driven techniques for phosphorus enrichment while systematically comparing energy consumption, enrichment rate, and concentration factor among different technologies. Furthermore, the study provides a thorough analysis of the capacity of various technologies to selectively enrich phosphorus and proposes several methods and strategies to enhance selectivity. These insights offer valuable guidance for advancing the future development of electrochemical techniques with enhanced efficiency and effectiveness in phosphorus enrichment from wastewater.
