APPILICABILITY
Secondary or tertiary treatment process for wastewater
cost-effective, simple, economical, efficient and longterm, wastewater treatment technologies
Constructed wetlands are natural systems and do not
require electrical energy (unless for pumps) or chemicals
Best suited for warm climates, but can be designed to
tolerate freezing periods
CWs can be combined with many other techniques such
as aquaculture, irrigation and several pre-treatment
options.
Water, media, microbes and vegetation are the four main components
used for create a CW.
Contaminants are removed mainly by physical mechanisms, such as
filtration or sedimentation, and biochemical interactions, such as
microbial degradation.
Wetland vegetation plays an important role in treatment of wastewater
in a constructed wetland.
Oxygenation by roots has been shown to have a significant impact on
important mechanisms of wastewater treatment in CWs.
The fluctuation of water level in CWs may cause the variation of ROR.
And also hence efficiency of the treatment system will vary .

LITERATURE REVIEW
Wastewater treatment is much needed in nowadays due to the
lack of good quality fresh water resources (Llorens et al., 2011)
Major pollutant sources are domestic sewage, municipal and
industrial wastewaters, agricultural runoff, urban drainage and
landfill leachate.
Compare to ww treatment systems the Constructed Wetlands
(CWs) are more significant as a secondary or tirtiary treatment
for domestic wastewater (Headley et al., 2012) as a low
care/low maintenance treatment system CWs are the cheaper
than all other treatment systems.
Constructed wetlands are manmade wetlands that utilize
natural processes involving wetland soil, vegetation, and
microbial community associated to assist in treating
wastewater (Kadlec and Knight, 1996)
Continue
The plant type (Root Oxygen release) and water level are the main
parameters that considered at the removal efficiency of
Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD 5), Chemical oxygen demand
(COD), Fecal coliform (FC), Total Coliform (TC) CWs.

OBJECTIVES
To evaluate the effect of water level fluctuation on efficiency of the
SCOPE
Conduct a laboratory experiment to evaluate the
effect of water level fluctuation on pollutant removal
efficiency in Constructed Wetland by using synthetic
wastewater.
METHODOLOGY
1.Wetland set-up
Horizontal Sub-surface flow wetlands will be used.
2 inch metal

140 cm
3/4 inch metal

Impermeable layer
2.Macrophytes
3.Wetland arrangement
6 wetlands are prepared, 3 with a static water level (namely
S1,S2,S3), 3 with fluctuating water level (namely F1,F2,F3).
Each wetland will be fed with 28 ml/min wastewater flow rate.
only 4 wetlands will be planted.
S3 and F3 are control wetlands( No plants).

4. Flow manipulation
For the calculations we took porosity as 0.4 from previous
year project.
Assuming HRT for static condition is 3.5days;
continuous flow of wastewater is supplied to
each wetland is 28 ml/min
For the fluctuating flow wetlands, the height of the survival
pipe is changed from 50 cm to 40cm.
There for the HRT changes from 3.5 days to 2.8 days.
Multichannel peristaltic pump is used to supply water to the 6
wetlands
