Efficiency of Wastewater Treatment in Single-Family Constructed Wetlands in Kaszuby Lake District

Abstract

In the paper results of investigation upon three different configurations of single family treatment wetlands were presented. It was indicated that the application of treatment wetlands for single family effluent is a effective and sustainable solution for wastewater treatment in the rural areas. In spite of the receiving higher concentration of pollutants in comparison to the TWs operated in Europe and USA analysed TWs ensure very effective removal of organic matter: BOD5 up to 92.0% and biogenic compounds: TN up to 77.0% and TP up to 66.0%. The configuration consisting of two vertical subsurface flow beds working in series ensured the highest efficiency removal and the lowest pollutants concentration in the final effluent.
