Abstract

To investigate the feasibility of treatment of pigger wastewater by constructed wetland and to provide the operation parameters for a full scale constructed wetlands to improve the quality of effluent water, a pilot test was conducted with a plug flow constructed wetland to treat dairy farm wastewater in Huangjiang city, Guangxi province. The results show that, outflow concentration of TN and NH4+-N were greatly lower than inflow concentration. The biomass and water content of M. aquaticum also varied with the transplanting season and nitrogen concentration. The study indicates that nitrogen removal for piggery wastewater by constructed wetland is the combined actions of physical chemistry, plants and season.
