Iron and aluminum oxides and some aluminosilicate minerals are efficient sorbents for phosphate. The phosphate adsorption characteristics of synthetic hematite (α‐Fe2O3), goethite (α‐FeOOH), and allophane (Si3Al4O12 nH2O), and a commercial alumina (A12O3) were evaluated to determine their potential for reducing phosphate leaching from soilless root media. The pH dependence of phosphate adsorption and maximum adsorption capacities were determined by reacting each mineral with various levels of phosphate between pH 4.0 and 9.0 in a 10 mM potassium chloride (KCl) background solution. Adsorbed phosphate was determined by loss from solution. Adsorption envelopes (adsorbed phosphate versus pH) showed a decrease in phosphate adsorption with increasing pH, particularly for alumina and allophane, ...}, number={5-6}, journal={COMMUNICATIONS IN SOIL SCIENCE AND PLANT ANALYSIS}, author={Oh, YM and Hesterberg, DL and Nelson, PV}, year={1999}, pages={747–756} }
