The recovery of phosphorus (P) through vivianite crystallization offers a promising approach for resource utilization in wastewater treatment plants. However, this process encounters challenges in terms of small product size and low purity. The study aimed to assess the feasibility of using quartz sand as a seed material to enhance P recovery and vivianite crystal characteristics from anaerobic fermentation supernatant. Various factors, including seed dosage, seed size, Fe/P ratio, and pH, were systematically tested in batch experiments to assess their influence. Results demonstrated that the effect of seed enhancement on vivianite crystallization was more pronounced under higher seed dosages, smaller seed sizes, and lower pH or Fe/P ratio. The addition of seeds increased P recovery by 4.43% in the actual anaerobic fermentation supernatant and also augmented the average particle size of the recovered product from 19.57 to 39.28 µm. Moreover, introducing quartz sand as a seed material effectively reduced co-precipitation, leading to a notable 12.5% increase in the purity of the recovered vivianite compared to the non-seeded process. The formation of an ion adsorption layer on the surface of quartz sand facilitated crystal attachment and growth, significantly accelerating the vivianite crystallization rate and enhancing P recovery. The economic analysis focused on chemical costs further affirmed the economic viability of using quartz sand as a seed material for P recovery through vivianite crystallization, which provides valuable insights for future research and engineering applications.
