Comparison of the Treatment Performances of High-strength Wastewater in Vertical Subsurface Flow Constructed Wetlands Planted with Acorus calamus and Lythrum salicaria

Subsurface Flow Constructed Wetlands for Wastewater Treatment

Performance Review of Hybrid Subsurface Constructed Wetlands in Urban Wastewater Supplementary Treatment

Today, the use of refined urban wastewater for agriculture is growing considerably. One of the methods for the natural treatment of wastewater is the constructed wetland. In this study, the effects of three and six days retention time on the vertical, horizontal and hybrid constructed wetland (first vertical and then horizontal) with perlite beds and Cyperus plants on the urban wastewater were ...

Design of horizontal and vertical subsurface flow constructed wetlands treating industrial wastewater

Constructed wetlands have become a good alternative to urban and industrial wastewater treatments. Because of the many interactions between the different parts that form the wetland, the design of these systems used to be very complex so a good design tool is required. Hybrid constructed wetlands mix the aerobic and anaerobic properties of vertical and horizontal subsurface flow constructed wet...

Wastewater Treatment with Vertical Flow Constructed Wetland

Water is one of the most important elements involved in the creation and development of healthy life. Haphazard disposal of untreated wastewater from households as well as institutions and industry is causing severe deterioration of water bodies in many urban areas in the developing world. There are several methods to treat the municipal wastewater for intended use. One of the methods of the tr...

Comparison of measured and simulated distribution of microbial biomass in subsurface vertical flow constructed wetlands.

The multi-component reactive transport module CW2D has been developed to model transport and reactions of the main constituents of municipal wastewater in subsurface flow constructed wetlands and is able to describe the biochemical elimination and transformation processes for organic matter, nitrogen and phosphorus. It has been shown that simulation results match the measured data when the flow...
