摘要：Sustainable phosphorus (P) recovery from sewage sludge is crucial to reconciling the simultaneous shortage and excess of P. In this study, magnetic biochar (MBC) was synthesized and innovatively applied to enhance P recovery as vivianite. The effects of anaerobic digestion (AD) time, hydrothermal (HT) pretreatment temperature and MBC dose on vivianite formation were investigated using batch experiments and a modified sequential P extraction protocol. The P fractionation results showed that the concentration of pure vivianite-bound P (Fe(II)-P) reached a maximum on the 10th day of AD treatment, and then declined sharply due to vivianite oxidation and P limitation. HT pretreatment operated at relatively high temperatures (135 and 185 °C) reduced vivianite formation; this negative effect of HT pretreatment was partially compensated by MBC supplementation. The proportion of Fe(II)-P in the solid phase of sludge was substantially raised up to 57.1% from 8.3~17.4% with an increasing dose of MBC from 0 to 12.5 g/L, indicating that MBC had a markedly enhanced effect on vivianite formation; this could be attributed to the MBC-improved Fe(II) production, as evidenced by the elevated proportion of Fe(II) in Fe2p XPS spectra and the increased ratio of Fe(II)-P to oxidized vivianite-bound P (Fe(III)-P) in the sludge after MBC supplementation. MBC addition also decreased the proportion of water-extractable P by sorption and promoted organic P decomposition, which further facilitated vivianite production. These findings reveal a new strategy for enhancing P recovery from HT-pretreated AD sludge.
