Craig Bingman wrote an article a while back, but it isn't online anymore.

This is not my most recent phosphorus article, but in this one there is a discussion about limewater and phosphate entitled

"Phosphate Sinks in Reef Tanks: Limewater Precipitation"

http://www.animalnetwork.com/fish/library/articleview2.asp?Section=Aquarium+Frontiers+--+Biochemistry+of+Aquaria&RecordNo=2481

That should get you started, along with the idea that the exact mechanism isn't demonstrated.
