Constructed wetland substrates: A review on development, function mechanisms, and application in contaminants removal

Zehua Ji et al.

Summary: Constructed wetlands (CWs) are a cost-effective and efficient method for wastewater treatment, with substrates playing a crucial role in influencing performance and sustainability. There has been a growing demand for substrates to enhance CWs' ability to treat more complex contaminants from various sources. Extensive research has been conducted on different substrate materials and their characteristics to improve efficiency and sustainability of CWs.

Can we use mine waste as substrate in constructed wetlands to intensify nutrient removal? A critical assessment of key removal mechanisms and long-term environmental risks

Ruigang Wang et al.

Summary: The utilization of natural ores and mine waste as substrate in constructed wetlands can enhance nutrient removal performance. However, the potential negative environmental effects of contaminants leached from mine waste are not well understood. This study investigated the long-term feasibility and key removal mechanisms of different constructed wetlands using three types of mine waste as substrates. The results showed that the addition of mine waste increased the removal of total phosphorus and total nitrogen. The higher removal of phosphorus is mainly attributed to the strong binding mechanism of phosphate with the leached oxides and hydroxides of manganese, iron, and/or aluminum. Moreover, the integration of mine waste in constructed wetlands stimulated biofilm establishment and enriched the relative abundance of key functional genes related to the nitrogen cycle.

Caocong Liu et al.

Summary: A recent study investigated the effect of different crystal forms of MnO2 on nitrogen removal under oxygen-limited conditions. The study found that the anoxic ammonia oxidation process was mediated by microorganisms and influenced by pH and temperature. The results showed that amorphous MnO2 crystal structure improved the removal of nitrogen under oxygen-limited conditions.

A combined deodorization reflux system and tidal flow constructed wetland for sewage treatment performance

Hao Zheng et al.

Summary: A combined process of reflux deodorization and tidal flow constructed wetland showed high removal efficiencies of COD, NH4+-N, TP, sulfide, and TON in treating septic tank wastewater, with optimal operation achieved at a reflux ratio of 150%. Thiobacillus in the system can conduct simultaneous denitrification and deodorization. Controlling the ratios of p(NO3--N)/p(S2-) and p(COD)/p(NO3-N) helps achieve good denitrification and deodorization effects in the deodorization pool.

Optimized constructed wetlands enhance the removal and reduce the risks of steroid hormones in domestic wastewater

Jun Chen et al.

Summary: Constructed wetlands have been proven to be reliable for removing various contaminants, including steroid hormones. By optimizing design parameters, such as aeration and series wetland units, the removal efficiency of steroid hormones can be significantly improved. Biodegradation plays a dominant role in removing steroid hormones, while substrate adsorption and plant uptake also contribute to the removal process.

Removal of phosphorus and ammonium from municipal wastewater treatment plant effluent by manganese ore in a simulated constructed wetland

Yungui Li et al.

Summary: This study investigated the sorption characteristics of natural manganese ore (NM) and its removal efficiency of ammonium and phosphorus from WWTP effluent in a simulated vertical flow NM constructed wetland (NM-VFCW). The results showed that NM could effectively sorb ammonium and phosphorus with a high removal efficiency, particularly for phosphorus. The manganese ore sand is highlighted as a powerful substrate for simultaneous advanced removal of phosphorus and ammonium in constructed wetland systems.
