Constructed Wetlands
“… a designed and man made complex of saturated substrate,
emergent and submergent vegetation, animal life and water
that simulates natural wetlands for human use and benefits.”
(Hammer,1989)

China’s Yangtze River 1998 Flood
Economic losses were estimated in 32,000 million dollars and 230
million persons were affected.
Causes
The increase of settlements construction on flood prone areas.
The increase destruction of wetlands near lakes and rivers to
accommodate more farming.
The increase of river basin deforestation
Solutions
Wetland Restoration
Stopping deforestation

Functions of Wetlands
Treatment of livestock and municipal wastewater.
Treatment of highway runoff and urban storm waste water.
Hydrological and hydraulic modifications.
Water Quality improvement.
Shoreline stabilization and erosion control.
Life supporting wildlife and plant habitats.
Open wilderness and aesthetics.

Benefits of Constructed Wetlands
Cost effective treatment of non point source pollution.
Reduction of operation and maintenance costs relative to
conventional water treatment plants.
Reduction of flood hazards and erosion.
Opportunities for enhancement of wildlife habitats biodiversity
revitalization, academic research, public education and community

Once the nitrogen reaches the biofilm surfaces, its concentration is
determined by diffusion term and a reaction term (Polpraset et al., 1994)

Future Outlook
Science has recently provided wetland engineers with biomolecular
probes to decrypt the microbial basis of treatment processes.
More research should be focused on the internal mechanism such as
ammonification, nitrification, denitrification, plant uptake, adsorption,
desorption, sedimentation, mineralization etc.
Recent wetland research and the unfolding revolution in molecular and
environmental microbiology suggest that these techniques will
powerfully inform wetland engineering designs in the future.
Efficient dynamic software like STELLA can be used as a tool for better
understanding the processes happening underneath the wetland
system.
Passive methods will remain important, but as an informed design
choice, not a technology limitation

Conclusion
Constructed Wetlands/Engineered Wetlands are crucial in protection of
Environment
TFEW and Alum sludge plays a pivotal role in the removal of
pollutants from Wastewater.
Moreover, increasing scientific sophistication of treatment wetland
designers is only the beginning of a more profound understanding in the
near future of how these complex reactors function at a molecular level
