Effective managements of organic solid waste and surface water eutrophication can reuse/reduce solid waste resources, and ensure surface water safety. Herein, an easily-recoverable amine-functionalized biosorbent was developed from biogas residue (BR-N) for nitrate and phosphate removals from surface water. Physicochemical characteristics revealed that BR-N has a cross-staggered structure with abundant quaternary-amine groups to enhance the diffusion and electrostatic attraction of nitrate/phosphate. In batch studies, nitrate/phosphate could be effectively removed by the BR-N within a wide pH range of 5.0–9.0, and the maximum adsorption capacities of BR-N were 64.12 mg/g for nitrate and 34.40 mg P/g for phosphate. After continuous 8 cycles of adsorption-desorption, BR-N still exhibited >82% adsorption capacity for nitrate/phosphate removals, implying the high chemical stability and reusability for water treatment. Whereafter, BR-N has real application prospect in water treatment, which could effectively treat ˜380, ˜260 and ˜760 bed volumes (BV) of three actual eutrophic surface water to satisfy the surface water standard of China (GB3838-2002). The cost of BR-N was 2.89 $/kg evaluated by energy-economy assessment, indicating the low-cost production of biogas residue-based adsorbent for treating eutrophic surface water. Overall, this study provides a new idea for high-value utilization of organic solid waste and purification of eutrophic water.
