background: natural methods of wastewater treatment, such as wetlands, are simple, cheap and acceptable for developing countries, especially small and remote cities. the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of typha latifolica in subsurface flow constructed wetland for wastewater treatment. methods: in this experimental research, the efficiency of typha latifolica in subsurface flow...

background: constructed wetlands (cw s ) are mimic filtration process in natural wetlands that effectively remove variety pollutants from wastewater. the main objective was the feasibility evaluation for using of subsurface flow constructed wetland in nitrogen and phosphorus removal from synthetic based on domestic wastewater in lab scale. methods: in this study, a synthetic wetland subsurface ...

background: selection of different wastewater treatment methods depends on the kind of wastewater, geographical position of the community, quantity and quality of wastewater and effluent, technology and finance. natural wastewater treatment methods are simple, cheap and acceptable for developing countries specially small and remote countries and wetland is one of these methods. wetlands include...

Constructed wetland technology has been widely applied around the world to treat domestic wastewaters from the single family home to small communities. Constructed wetlands can be classified as either surface flow wetlands (similar to natural wetlands) or subsurface flow wetlands, where the wastewater flows through a media. Subsurface flow constructed wetlands can either be horizontal flow syst...

The last few decades witnessed sharp focus on environment pollution and its impact on life in nature. Wetlands can be used for biological treatment of wastewater. Problem statement: Scarcity of water is considered as a global problem and Iran is one the countries which is facing water shortage problem. Pollution of water bodies restrict the availability of water for various uses. Treatment of w...

Original scientific paper Efficiency of waste water treatment in a subsurface constructed wetland depends on influent water quality, quality water effluent demand, climate conditions, substrate type and plants used. Therefore, the efficiency of the constructed wetlands that are designed and constructed according to the literature design parameters can be different then expected. The results of ...

The enrichment of groundwater and rivers by nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus compounds) and their consequences is one of the most severe problems across the world. Transfer of nutrients from different sources into the environment causes eutrophication of surface waters, nitrate accumulation in groundwater, and others. Domestic wastewater is important nitrogenous and phosphorous source. Among ...

This paper reported the pollutant removal performances of a hybrid wetland system for the treatment of aquaculture wastewater. The system consisted of two treatment stages: a subsurface vertical flow (VF) wetland, followed by a horizontal flow (HF). The aquaculture wastewater with the different concentrations such as eutrophy and mesotrophy was treated using hybrid constructed wetland. The expe...
