A novel subsurface flow constructed wetland system used in anvanced wastewater treatment for nutrient removal in a cold area

چکیده
Due to the limitations of a cold climate to a conventionally constructed wetland system(CWS) during anual operation, a new type of compound double-layer subsurface flow wetland system was developed. A full-scale test trial of this system has been operated in the Northeast of China, which was used for advanced sewage treatment. By increasing the depth of the wetland structure, setting down insulating material layers, filling with a high-efficiency compound substrate and using the bioaugmentation technology. The purification efficiency and the operational stability of this CWS has been effectively improved. The new type of double-layer subsurface flow of the CWS still showed a high purification capacity for organic matter in the winter. It was hard to obtain a high purification effect for the ammonia with the wetland system in winter because of the limitation of nitrification at low temperatures, but the system had a significant effect in denitrification and nitrate-nitrogen removal. The compound substrates provide a high performance of the system in Total Phosphorus (TP) removal.

Background: Investigating the performance of naturally operated treatment plants may be due to the fact that they cannot be operated as desired, or that they should be modified to achieve good performance e.g. for nutrients removal. The advantage of kinetic coefficient determination is that the model can be adjusted to fit data and then used for analyzing alternatives to improve the process. Th...
