| Abstract/Contents: | Comparison of constructed wetlands for wastewater designs between large scale and small scale designs. Either design benefit from a series of multiple cells and channels that mimic the diversity of natural wetland systems. Constructed wetland systems can include: submergent and emergent herbaceous species, cattails, bulrush, reed canary grass, soft rush tree seedlings, understory plants, lakes, berms, islands, buffer zones, berm roads, hiking trails, picinic areas and anything to promote wildlife. Constructed wetlands for wastewater have provided habitats for endangered species. Concepts of constructed wetlands for wastewater can be applied to different land and population specifications. Design firms are developing comprehensive plans for constucted wetlands for wastewater to include landscape, roads, and houses. |
