Abstract
Abstract Phosphorus (P) is recovered from sewage sludge ash (SSA) by selective HCl elution of Ca. Leaching and rearrangement of P were very fast and the amounts of leaching and recombination of P depend strongly on pH. pH control at 4.0 obtained selective elution ratio (Ca(%)/P(%)) of 20 by recombination of P to Al in SSA residue while it was 5.6 without pH control. XRD and element mass balance showed that Ca–P in the raw SSA was converted to Al–P complex during the acid pretreatment.
