The larger aquatic plants growing in wetlands are usually called macrophytes. These include vascular plants, mosses and some algae. presence or absence of macrophytes is one the characteristics used to define wetlands, as such an indispensable component these ecosystems. As most important removal processes constructed treatment based on physical microbial processes, role has been questioned. This paper summarizes how influence wetlands. The functions relation wastewater effects gives rise...
Macrophytes have several intrinsic properties that makes them an indispensable component of constructed wetlands. The most important functions the macrophytes in relation to treatment wastewater are physical effects brought about by presence plants. stabilise surface beds, provide good conditions for filtration, prevent vertical flow systems from clogging, insulate against frost during winter, and a huge area attached microbial growth. Contrary earlier belief, growth does not increase...

Abstract Climate warming and associated extreme temperature fluctuations result in rapid pronounced changes the biogeographical ranges of species. However, existing models that predict these climate‐driven range dynamics often fail to adequately account for intricacies local adaptation individual specialization, treating species as having uniform responses without accounting variability. This oversight highlights need enhance our understanding evolutionary implications intraspecific...
Internal pressurization and convective through‐flow are demonstrated to be common attributes of wetland plants with cylindrical culms or linear leaves. Eight 14 species tested produced static internal gas pressure differentials 200–1,300 Pa relative ambient airflows 0.2 >10 cm 3 min −1 culm , depending on species. Four <100 Pa. Two did not pressurize. The driving forces gradients in temperature water vapor between the spaces atmosphere (thermal transpiration humidity‐induced...
During the last two decades multiple functions and values of wetlands have been recognized not only by scientists managers working with wetlands, but also public. The ability to transform store organic matter has exploited in constructed wetlands. This paper summarizes state-of-the-art uses water pollution control reviewing basics technology, historical development, performance expectations focus on use free surface subsurface flow for municipal wastewater treatment. Performance data from a...
Sorption of phosphorus (P) to the bed sand medium is a major removal mechanism for P in subsurface flow constructed wetlands. Selecting with high P-sorption capacity therefore important obtain sustained P-removal. The P-removal capacities 13 Danish sands were evaluated and related their physico-chemical characteristics. properties different geographical origin varied considerably suitability use as media reed beds thus differs. some would be used up after only few months full-scale systems,...
Removal efficiencies and elimination kinetics of 13 pharmaceuticals personal care products (PPCPs) BOD5, TSS, ammonium were evaluated in a pilot vertical subsurface-flow constructed wetland (VFCW) compared with those obtained by sand filter. On the basis observed removals, PPCPs studied grouped relation to their removal efficiency into (i) very efficiently removed, that is, >95% one systems (caffeine, salicylic acid, methyl dihydrojasmonate, CA-ibuprofen, hydrocinnamic oxybenzone, ibuprofen,...
The present paper describes the theoretical basis of wastewater treatment in rhizosphere wetland plants, so-called “root-zone method”, along with first working experiences from eight plants Denmark. Mechanically treated is led horizontally through plants. During passage rhizosphere, cleaned by microbiological degradation and physical/chemical processes. supply oxygen to heterotrophic microorganisms stabilize hydraulic conductivity soil. Nitrogen removed denitrification phosphorus heavy...
