Phosphate has been shown to remove Cd and Zn from aqueous solutions (Chen et al., 1997b), to reduce Hg mobility (Melamed and Boas, 2000), to inunobilize Pb effectively in contaminated soils (Ma et al., 1993, 1994a,b, 1995 Ma and Rao, 1999) and scrubber residues (Geysen et al., 2004) and ash (loannidis and Zouboulis, 2003), to reduce Pb uptake by plant in soils (Laperche et al., 1997), to mitigate acid mine drainage, and to reduce the transport of heavy metals in soils (Georgopoulou et al., 1995 Evangelou, 1996).
