Most commonly Phsphate removing chemicals are Lanthanum Chloride which kills any Phosphates in the water. This does take about 3 days of normal filtration to do its job.

How is energy given off by Atp?

The A in Atp is for Adenosine that IS one of the nucleotide bases: in special instances Gtp and Utp are also used. The other moiety involved is the phosphate moiety PO4, which is a Phosphate atom surrounded by a largely electro-negative electron cloud. It is also known as 'inorganic Phosphate' - or Pi. A + Pi = Adenosine mono phosphate, A + PiPi = Adenosine di phosphate, A + PiPiPi = Adenosine tri phosphate. Getting back to that cloud formed by the near proximity of all those [mostly] negatively charged Oxygen atoms, recall that like charges repel each other. Bring a Pi to an Amp and, because of those repulsions, it takes considerable energy to make the chemical bond and form Adp {A + PiPi}. To bring in ANOTHER Pi to bond and form Atp {A + PiPiPi} takes an even more considerable amount of energy - stored in the chemical bonds - to complete this reaction. These reactions are all enzymatically controlled, as they are enzymatically reversible: Atp = Adp + Pi + chemical energy. Also, Adp = Amp + Pi +energy (En); also Atp = Amp + PiPi + En. Atp is also found as Amp and Adp; Adenosine mono phosphate and Adenosine di phosphate.
