Chemical phosphorus removal in wastewater treatment plants can be carried out by precipitation with iron or aluminum salts or by filtering wastewater through a bed of active sorptive material. This work aimed to investigate whether using a meander flow filter filled with the sorption material Rockfos® would improve phosphorus removal efficiency in a selected wastewater treatment plant. Tests were performed under laboratory conditions using a model of a meander flow filter and a similar filter under field conditions at full technical scale. This filter was the final element of a hybrid constructed wetland located in the village of Białka in the municipality of Dębowa Kłoda in southeastern Poland. A laboratory model of a phosphorus removal filter with vertical incomplete baffles forcing a meandering water flow was constructed to determine the hydraulic conditions of the flow. After one year of operation, the filter with horizontal wastewater flow operating at its full technical scale (without meanders) was modified by inserting appropriate baffles that were analogous to those in the laboratory model. The analysis of the hydraulic conditions in the laboratory model showed that, under the assumed conditions, wastewater flows through the filter layer in a laminar motion, so such filters can be modeled using the Kozeny–Carman formula. It was shown that, after approximately a year of operation in a filter operating at full technical scale, before modification, dead spaces formed, thus causing the channel and primarily surface flow of wastewater. The phosphorus removal efficiency during this test period averaged 9.4%. After introducing baffles and forcing meander flow in the filter chamber, the efficiency increased to 40.6%. The results indicate that meander flow filters can improve phosphorus removal efficiency in small wastewater treatment plants.
