Abstract:With excellent and stable adsorption capacity for water contaminants, water treatment residual (WTR) has great application potential in water purification. WTR's application in the field of water purification provides a win-win idea for water treatment techniques and WTR recycling. This article summarized the characteristics of WTR and its adsorption capacity for water contaminants such as phosphorus and fluoride. The research progress of WTR as media of wetland, bioretention, subsurface infiltration system, green roof and covering agent of lake sediment was reviewed. The environmental risk of WTR's reclamation and recycling was discussed aiming to provide reference for further research and development of WTR's application for water purification.
