  1. 1. Wastewater treatment in constructed wetlands : Effects of vegetation, hydraulics and data analysis methods

    Författare :Hristina Bodin; Karin Tonderski; Jesper Persson; Stefan Weisner; Per Milberg; Hans Brix; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :constructed wetland; free water surface flow; wastewater treatment; Kenya; Sweden; vegetation; harvest; Cyperus papyrus; Echinochloa pyramidalis; mass load; phosphorus; ammonium; suspended solids; pollutant removal; hydraulics; residence time distribution; data analysis methods; Konstgjorda våtmarker; avloppsvatten; vattenrening; fosfor; ammonium; partiklar; Kenya; Sverige; växter; Cyperus papyrus; Echinochloa pyramidalis; skörd; hydraulik; dataanalysmetod;

    Sammanfattning : Degradation of water resources has become one of the most pressing global concerns currently facing mankind. Constructed Wetlands (CWs) represent a concept to combat deterioration of water resources by acting as buffers between wastewater and receiving water bodies. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Arthropods in Constructed Wetlands : Ecosystem Processes and Riparian Biodiversity

    Författare :David Åhlén; Peter Hambäck; Julien Pétillon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; constructed wetlands; arthropods; community ecology; spiders; insects; hydrology; shoreline properties; primary production; greenhouse gasses; nutrients; grazing management; Ecology and Evolution; ekologi och evolution;

    Sammanfattning : Constructed wetlands in the agricultural landscape are known to harbor immense arthropod biodiversity, however, riparian arthropod communities have often been neglected compared to aquatic communities when studying environmental responses. These wetlands are highly productive, but vary in form and composition based on its purpose, which influences the communities that inhabit them. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Coupled Hydrological and Microbiological Processes Controlling Denitrification in Constructed Wetlands

    Författare :Johan Kjellin; Anders Wörman; Sara Hallin; Barbro Ulén; Björn Klöve; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Constructed wetland; Residence time; water flow modeling; denitrification rate; Tracer experiment; denitrifying bacteria community structure; Water in nature and society; Vatten i natur och samhälle;

    Sammanfattning : Treatment wetlands play an important role in reducing nitrogen content in wastewater and agricultural run-off water. The main removal process is denitrification and the removal efficiency depends on the hydrological and microbiological features of the wetland, especially in terms of water residence times and denitrification rates.

  4. 4. Modelling phosphorus dynamics in constructed wetlands upgraded with reactive filter media

    Författare :Rajabu Hamisi; Gunno Renman; Berit Balfors; Roger Thunvik; Steve W. Lyon; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Constructed Wetland; COMSOL; Modelling; Reactive Solute Transport; Sorption Process; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Developing low-cost and effective technologies to upgrade phosphorus (P) removal from the catchment runoffs and rural wastewater treatment facilities is one of the main research agendas to save the Baltic Sea from eutrophication. In Sweden, the construction of the constructed wetlands has been one of the environmental objectives for wastewater quality improvement in the small communities. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Mosquitoes as a Part of Wetland Biodiversity

    Författare :Martina Schäfer; Jacob Höglund; Jan Lundström; Darold Batzer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; diversity patterns; species assemblages; functional groups; constructed wetlands; dytiscids; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Wetlands contain both aquatic and terrestrial environments which generates high biodiversity. However, they are commonly associated with mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae), and mosquitoes are usually regarded as negative by humans because they can cause nuisance and transmit diseases. LÄS MER
