▼ The City of Woodburn, Oregon's Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) has been investigating several natural alternatives for improving effluent quality. Based on its current National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit, the WWTP will require additional reduction of temperature and ammonia levels in the summer, especially in the critical month of September. The present research focuses on the performance of a 0.15 ha constructed pilot wetland during the summer and early fall of 2009. The wetland was intended to demonstrate the feasibility of using treatment wetlands to lower temperature and ammonia during an annual operational period (approximately June through October). Point sensors and a fiber optic distributed temperature sensor (DTS) were used to assess temperature treatment during the study. Infiltration was monitored to characterize the hydrogeologic behavior of the site. A wetland water budget was used to determine system-wide infiltration, and heat pulses applied to a subsurface fiber optic cable were used to assess infiltrative variability. The results showed that temperature reduction in the pilot wetland was marginal over the study period. In the September critical month, significantly more treatment occurred in the WWTP storage lagoon than in the wetland (about 4°C cooling compared to 1.2°C in the wetland). Decreasing the hydraulic retention time from 2.5 to 0.5 days in mid-September did not change the average temperature treatment. DTS data demonstrated that all temperature reduction occurred in the first half of the wetland. Infiltration was greater than outflow for most of the study, and steadily decreased through time. The highest and lowest infiltration velocities were within a factor of 2, and this range also declined between November 2008 and June 2009. Potential explanations for decreasing infiltration include soil clogging and settling. The study showed the utility of DTS for assessing the spatial and temporal variability of infiltration processes.

▼ The presence of pharmaceuticals and personal care products are increasing in our natural environment due to their incomplete removal within traditional wastewater treatment plants. Constructed wetlands are used as secondary or tertiary wastewater treatment and as such may receive both pharmaceuticals and personal care products with subsequent implications for their treatment efficacy. The aim of this study was to examine the fate and effects of antimicrobials in planted and unplanted vertical flow constructed wetlands. Twelve mesocosms were inoculated with activated sludge from the Cataraqui Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant. Six were planted with reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) and the remaining six were left unplanted. The wetland mesocosms were assessed using a variety of parameters including water treatment (chemical oxygen demand removal rate), hydrological (porosity, evapotranspiration/evaporation) water quality (temperature, pH, specific conductivity, dissolved oxygen, redox potential, total dissolved solids), ecological (plant height and stem count), and microbial community function (community level physiological profiling).. Community-level physiological profiles were gathered for the wetland microbial community using Biolog EcoplatesTM. The development phase was initially characterized for all mesocosms over a ninety-day period to establish ecological stability. The microbial communities were then subjected to ex-situ, dose-response exposures (0 – 1000 μg/L) for trimethoprim, triclosan and sulfamethoxazole to gain an understanding of the ecotoxicity of these antimicrobials. Following the ex-situ exposures, in-situ exposures were performed with triclosan and sulfamethoxazole at low (100 μg/L) and high (500 μg/L) concentrations. The low concentration was selected based on literature reviews of the levels found in water bodies and the high concentration was selected to represent a shock-loading scenario. Hydrological, ecological and microbial parameters were monitored before, immediately after and over a recovery period of four weeks following each exposure. During the developmental period both the planted and unplanted mesocosms developed similarly and ecological stability was established. However, a distinct microbial community profile was observed in the planted mesocosms. In the ex-situ dose-response experiments the effect of trimethoprim was negligible on the planted microbial communities but with some removal of microbial function for the unplanted microbial communities. Triclosan exposure led to a moderate decline in microbial function for both the planted and unplanted communities. Sulfamethoxazole exposure led to a severe decline in microbial function in both the planted and unplanted microbial communities, so much so that negligible activity was observed at 1000 μg/L. Following the in-situ low and high exposures of triclosan and sulfamethoxazole there was a significant removal of the compounds (>80%) from the mesocosm water column. The effects of both low and high triclosan and sulfamethoxazole… Advisors/Committee Members: Royal Military College of Canada / Collège militaire royal du Canada, Weber, Kela.

▼ Five unique but related studies were conducted at the Oregon State University Dairy Wetland Treatment System (OSUDWTS), Corvallis, OR. The research site consisted of six parallel wetland cells, which were built in 1992 and began receiving concentrated dairy wastewater in the fall of 1993. Hydrologic, hydraulic, and water quality data were collected at the site for three years. The five resulting studies were: 1. the prediction of evapotranspiration (ET) from wetlands; 2. the development of a hydrologic model and water budget for the OSUDWTS; 3. a preliminary investigation of the hydraulics of the OSUDWTS; 4. an overall evaluation of the treatment performance of the OSUDWTS and applicability of current constructed wetland design methods to livestock wastewater wetlands; and 5. the development of a conceptual model for nitrogen removal in constructed wetlands. Average ET rates for the wetland cells were found to be 1.6 times as great as the Penman- Monteith alfalfa reference ET. Specific crop coefficients were 1.72, 2.32, and 0.57 for bulrush, cattails, and floating grass mats. The detailed hydrology model predicted daily water levels very accurately (R²=0.95) and showed seasonal rainfall and ET could increase or decrease the average detention time by as much as 18%. Tracer studies indicated that non ideal flow existed in the wetlands. Actual detention times were found to be an average of 43% shorter than theoretical detention times. Tank-in-series and plug flow modified by dispersion models were inadequate at describing the observed tracer response. Constructed wetlands were shown to be able to reduce a high percentage of most waste constituents in concentrated livestock wastewaters. Average reductions for COD, BOD, TS, TSS, TP, TKN, NH₃ and fecal coliforms were 45, 52, 27, 55, 42, 41, 37 and 80%, respectively. Rate constants for volumetric and areal first-order plug flow models were found for each wastewater constituent. Overall, both models were fair at predicting wastewater reduction at the OSUDWTS. A conceptual model of nitrogen cycling showed denitrification to be the most important process for nitrogen removal in constructed wetlands. However, low dissolved oxygen in constructed wetlands limits nitrification, which in turn limits denitrification. Advisors/Committee Members: Moore, James A.

▼ Treating elevated nutrients, suspended solids, oxygen demanding materials, heavy metals and chemical fertilizers and pesticides in agricultural wastewaters is necessary to protect surface and ground waters. Constructed wetlands (CWs) are an increasingly important technology to remediate wastewaters and reduce negative impacts on water quality in agricultural settings. Treatment of high strength effluents typical of agricultural operations results in the production of methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse trace gas. The objective of this study was to evaluate CH4 emissions from two subsurface flow (SSF) CWs (223 m2 each) treating dairy wastewater. The CWs were implemented at the University of Vermont Paul Miller Dairy Farm in 2003 as an alternative nutrient management approach for treating mixed dairy farm effluent (barnyard runoff and milk parlor waste) in a cold, northern climate. In 2006, static collars were installed throughout the inlet, mid and outlet zones of two CWs (aerated (CW1) and a non-aerated (CW2)) connected in-series, and gas samples were collected via non-steady state chambers (19.75 L) over a nine-month period (Feb-Oct 2007). Methane flux densities were variable throughout the nine-month study period, ranging from 0.026 to 339 and 0.008 to 165 mg m-2 h-1 in CW1 and CW2, respectively. The average daily CH4 flux of CW1 and CW2 were 1475 and 552 mg m-2 d-1, respectively. Average CH4 flux of CW1 was nearly threefold greater than that of CW2 (p = .0387) across all three seasons. The in-series design may have confounded differences in CH4 flux between CWs by limiting differences in dissolved oxygen and by accentuating differences in carbon loading. Methane flux densities revealed strong spatial and seasonal variation within CWs. Emissions generally decreased from inlet to outlet in both CWs. Average CW1 CH4 flux of the inlet zone was nearly threefold greater than mid zone and over tenfold greater than flux at the outlet, while fluxes for CW2 zones were not statistically different. Methane flux of CW1 was nearly fifteen fold greater than CW2 during the fall, representing the only season during which flux was statistically different (p = .0082) between CWs. Fluxes differed significantly between seasons for both CW1 (p = .0034) and CW2 (p = .0002). CH4 emissions were greatest during the spring season in both CWs, attributed to a consistently high water table observed during this season. Vegetation was excluded from chambers during GHG monitoring, and considering that the presence of vascular plants is an important factor influencing CH4 flux, the potential CH4 emissions reported in our study could be greatly underestimated. However, our reported average CH4 fluxes are comparable to published data from SSF dairy treatment CWs. We estimate average and maximum daily emissions from the entire CW system (892 m2) at approximately 1.11 and 6.33 kg CH4 d-1, respectively, yielding an annual average and maximum flux of 8.51 and 48.5 MtCO2-e y-1, respectively.

▼ Communities throughout the United States and abroad are seeking innovative approaches to sustaining their freshwater resources. Graywater reuse for non-potable demands is gaining popularity because it allows for the reuse of minimally contaminated wash water, generated and treated on site. Graywater is defined as any wastewater generated at the home or office including wastewater from the laundry, shower, and bathroom sinks but excluding water from the toilets, kitchen sinks, and dishwasher. When compared to other wastewater generated in the home, graywater is contaminated with lower concentrations of organics, solids, nutrients, and pathogens. These characteristics make the water suitable for reuse with negligible treatment when compared to other domestic wastewater sources. Graywater reuse for non-potable demands reduces the demand for treated water and preserves source waters. One method of treating graywater at a community scale for irrigation reuse is constructed wetlands. Despite widespread interest in this innovative approach, limited guidance is available on the design and operation of constructed wetlands specific to graywater treatment. The foremost objective of this research was to compare the performance of a free water surface constructed wetland (FWS) to a horizontal subsurface constructed wetland (SF) for graywater treatment and to assess their ability to meet water quality standards for surface discharge and reuse. This was done by comparison of percent (%) mass removal rates and requisite surface areas (SA) based on determined removal rates ( k ). Aerial loading rates were compared to EPA suggested aerial loading rates in an attempt to provide recommendations for target effluent concentrations. Determining contaminant removal rates is important for creating wetland design standards for graywater treatment and reuse. Contaminant removal rates were evaluated over the summer and fall of 2010 and 2011 for a SF wetland. These removal rates were compared to the removal rates evaluated over a two year period (2008-2010) for a FWS wetland. Another objective was to determine the % mass removal of three common anionic surfactants in constructed wetlands (both FWS and SF) and finally, the possibility of incorporating constructed wetlands into greenhouse community garden centers as an option to reduce the losses resulting from evapotranspiration (ET) in arid climates was explored briefly. The results indicate that SF wetlands provide relatively stable and more efficient treatment year round when compared to FWS wetlands. In particular, the SF wetland showed statistically significant higher mass removal of both biological oxygen demand (BOD5 ) and total nitrogen (TN) than the FWS wetland during winter months (P=0.1 and 0.005; α=0.1). When all the seasons were compared for each wetland individually there was a statistically significant degree of removal for BOD5 and TN between the seasons in the FWS wetland (P=0.09 and 0.04; α=0.1) while there was none in the SF wetland (P=1.0 and 0.9; α=0.1). These results are… Advisors/Committee Members: Sharvelle, Sybil E. (advisor), Roesner, Larry A. (committee member), Stromberger, Mary (committee member).

▼ This dissertation focused on the constructed wetland at a disused coal mine in Dundee, KwaZulu-Natal. A sequence of 10 wetland cells was constructed by the Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) to remediate seepage from the mine. The main aspects that this dissertation is focused on are the water quality and geochemistry of the wetland; the ability of the wetland in providing ecological goods and services, and the rehabilitation of the wetland system. The results of the water quality analysis revealed that the water in the system is of inferior quality. Several of the parameters exceeded South African water quality standards indicating that the water is detrimental to aquatic health and neither is it suitable for human consumption. The geochemical analysis revealed that whilst heavy metals are present in the sediments the enrichment factor (EF) values are low although certain elements may be bioavailable. This possibility is enhanced by the predominance of larger grained sediment which have low adsorption capacities, allowing for relatively easy remobilisation into the water column. PCA analysis indicated a predominance of some heavy metals in the wetland cells but that this was influenced by anthropogenic impacts via discard coal. The ability of the wetland system in providing ecosystem goods and services was found to be compromised due to the wetland being in a state of malfunction. The final part of this dissertation comprises of a proposed rehabilitation plan for the constructed wetland. The rehabilitation plan focuses on the causes of degradation of the system due to the prolonged lack of maintenance and monitoring resulting in dysfunctional connectivity of wetland cells; inhibition of wetland conditions; the proliferation of terrestrial and alien invasive plants and, the inappropriate original structural composition of the basal sediments used which initially would have worked counter to the original intention to reduce acidity of mine derived groundwater. The rehabilitation plan is intended to aid in the re-establishment of hydrological, geomorphological and ecological processes in the wetland system.

▼ Agricultural runoff can carry substantial loadings of nitrogen and phosphorus that can impact local surface water quality and contribute to impairment of water bodies further downstream. Subsurface tile drainage, a drainage water management practice commonly used in the Midwest, is known to contribute to elevated levels of these contaminants. Strategies to improve drainage water quality must be implemented in a way that minimally impacts land utilization and crop yield. In this study, three constructed wetlands were utilized to treat runoff from tile outlet terrace (TOT) agricultural fields managed under either a no-till corn-soybean rotation with wheat prior to soybean, or a no-till soybean crop. Nutrient and sediment removal efficiencies and runoff impact on receiving streams were determined during two growing seasons in 2014 and 2015. Water samples were collected with an auto-sampler at the wetland influent and effluent locations at Harvest Hills North (HHN/site 1), Harvest Hills Middle (HHM/site2), and Dan Cain site (Cain/site3). Using stream bottles, samples were also collected from two local streams that receive TOT runoff during and after storm events. Over the two years, changes in nutrient and sediment loads to the wetlands were observed. Runoff quality was affected by changes in crop type, fertilizer application rate, and precipitation pattern, frequency and intensity. During the two growing seasons, TOT runoff was responsible for 99.5, 71.2 and 197.7 kg of TN entering the wetlands at sites 1, 2 and 3, respectively, of which 67.7, 59.3 and 93.8 kg exited the system in the wetland effluent (32, 17 and 53% load removal). For TP, approximately 16.54, 8.75 and 45.18 kg entered the wetlands, of which 10.24, 5.25 and 19.67 kg exited (38, 40 and 56% removal). For total suspended solids (TSS), roughly 14793, 4023 and 64624 kg entered, of which 4824, 1748 and 10876 kg exited (67, 57 and 83% removal). Compared to the year with soybean crop coverage (2014) at the sites with a no-till corn-soybean rotation (sites 1 and 2), higher sediment concentration in TOT runoff was observed at the site with a no-till soybean crop both years (site3). The wetlands’ performance was typically better with higher influent concentrations, although the wetland design and inflow volume also seemed to contribute as well. Variations in behavior between two similar wetlands (sites 1 and 2) were likely due to differences in seepage rates and flow distribution through the wetlands, which is believed to have changed as sediments built up near the influent discharge pipe at site 1. Stream monitoring results showed that median concentrations of TN and TP were higher than the benchmark values for streams in U.S. EPA Region 7, with no measureable impact from either the treated (wetland effluent) or the untreated runoff. Potential reasons for why no significant impact to stream quality was observed are the relatively low volume of discharge relative to stream flow, and the relatively high stream levels of nutrients and sediments even upstream of the… Advisors/Committee Members: Peltier, Edward F (advisor), Young, C Bryan (cmtemember), Carter Jr., Ray E (cmtemember).

▼ Mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis Baird and Girard) and threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) thrive in freshwater marsh habitats, in places where mosquito (Culicidae) larvae occur. This study assessed the potential impacts of mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis) and threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) on mosquito and other macroinvertebrate communities living in constructed wetland Hydrocotyle beds. Littoral macrofauna was collected at 48 sites within Allen, Gearheart, Hauser, and Aldergrove marshes in Arcata, California. Sites were sampled every two weeks from May through September of 2005 for fish and available prey by utilizing minnow traps and a 1 liter dipper. Stomach samples of juvenile and adult threespine stickleback and mosquitofish were compared with abundance and seasonal changes of potential prey to determine monthly diet preferences. Niche overlap value (Cxy (0.33)) demonstrated that little overlap was occurring in diet between both species. In addition, both species were utilizing potential prey items in proportion to their abundance. As mosquito larvae and other prey densities increased, both stickleback and mosquitofish diversified their prey selection to include a variety of prey. However, during this diversification in prey selection, mosquitofish exhibited a Type III feeding response to mosquito larvae, while stickleback showed no clear response to the increase of mosquitoes. This difference in feeding response is likely due to concentration of predator search in the preferred habitat of the prey, palatability, prey vulnerability, and response to other prey items. The lack of predation on mosquito larvae, coupled with periodic consumption of mosquito larvae predators such as Dytiscidae, show stickleback would be inadequate as a biological control agent of mosquitoes in constructed wetlands. Mosquitofish significantly consumed mosquito larvae more than any other prey (p < 0.05), and consumed significantly greater numbers of mosquito larvae than stickleback when stomach samples from all marshes were examined. The positively correlated mosquitofish feeding response to increased numbers of mosquito larvae, especially in Allen Marsh, makes this fish a good choice for biological control of mosquitoes in heavily vegetated wetlands.

▼ The Dickinson Bayou Watershed has several water bodies impaired by high fecal coliform counts and low oxygen levels. Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) were developed to estimate the maximum amounts of Escherichia coli (E. coli) the tributaries to Dickinson Bayou could receive and still meet water quality standards. As part of the Dickinson Bayou Watershed Protection Plan, the Clear Creek Independent School District (CCISD) in League City, Texas, together with the Texas Coastal Watershed Program (TCWP-part of TAMU) office, retrofitted a detention pond in the their Education Village into a constructed wetland. This research seeks to evaluate the retrofitted constructed wetland effectiveness in reducing effluent loads of E. coli and how it compares to the potential load reduction estimated in the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL). Inflow into the wetland was quantified using the SCS Curve Number method and outflow was quantified using the stage-storage curve based on the change of the water level in the wetland. Inflow and outflow water samples were collected using ISCO samplers and tested with 3M^TM E. coli/ Coliform Petrifilm^TM. E. coli concentrations were analyzed following the methods outlined by the International BMP Database and using the XLSTAT software. The statistical analysis included descriptive statistics and parametric and non-parametric hypothetical testing. The results showed a median E. coli inflow concentration of 5,987 CFU/100ml and a median outflow concentration of 1,500 CFU/100ml. The normalized E. coli load was calculated to be 2.0 x 10¹⁰ CFU/acrexyr. A comparison to similar BMPs using lognormal probability plots showed the Education village compared favorably at high inflow concentrations, but had a higher minimum achievable concentration. The analysis of BMP performance data is often complex and challenging. Due to the limitations of this study there are a many avenues of further research. First, the influent E. coli concentrations were significantly higher than comparable watersheds. Considering the Education Village watershed only contains institutional facilities, high E. coli concentrations were not expected. Another possible investigation could involve taking a more detailed hydrograph and pollutograph. Moreover, more studies at other BMPs are needed for a better comparison of treatment performance, especially at detention basins. Finally, while this research highlights the possibility of a loading reduction that is lower than the WPP estimate, more research is needed to confirm that estimate.

▼ As a consequence of various cellar activities the wine industry produces copious volumes of potentially hazardous wastewater each year. South Africa is one of the top ten wine-producing countries, making the successful treatment of cellar effluent an important environmental obligation in this country. Constructed wetlands (CWs) are resilient to the seasonal input fluxes associated with agri-industrial waste and are ideal systems for the in-situ treatment of cellar effluent in small to medium-sized wineries not connected to municipal reticulation systems. In a project sponsored by the Water Research Commission of South Africa, a number of studies were undertaken to assess the remediation of winery wastewater and common components of winery wastewater in sand-filled pilot-scale constructed wetlands operated in batch mode. This thesis contains the results of three studies. The first study evaluated the temporal aspects of CW equilibration as a basis for future studies of system response to amendment. Microbial biomass and hydraulic conductivity values were monitored and microbial community fingerprints were obtained using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. The study showed that microbial community fingerprinting provides a valuable tool to assess the time-scales of microbial equilibration, which was found to be in the order of 100 days. In the second study, the biodegradation and mineralization of ethanol by acclimated and non-acclimated microbial populations in CWs were compared. By increasing the influent ethanol concentration at incremental intervals (incremental priming), the biodegradative capacity was significantly enhanced. At an influent COD concentration of 15 800 mg/L, no volatile fatty acids were detected in the effluent of an incrementally primed system and the maximum effluent COD measured was 180 mg/L. In contrast, an identical, unprimed system, amended with a lower concentration of COD (7587 mg/L), exhibited a maximum effluent COD concentration of 1 400 mg/L, with the metabolites butyrate and propionate accounting for up to 83% of the effluent COD. It was conclusively demonstrated that the use of incremental priming, together with the batch mode of operation enhanced long-term function of the CWs. In the third study, the removal of the phenolic component of winery wastewater was evaluated in CWs, as well as in sand columns and microcosms. It was found that at low influent phenolic concentrations in CWs, complete organic removal was accomplished, but at high concentrations, there was incomplete substrate removal and an accumulation of potentially toxic metabolites, including catechol. The sand provided a suitable substrate for the treatment of phenolic-laden waste, and both biotic (48%) and abiotic (52%) removal mechanisms effected the removal of model phenolics. Prior acclimation of microbial communities increased the biodegradation rate of phenolic acids significantly. Advisors/Committee Members: Cowan, D.A (advisor).

▼ This study investigated the effect of plant surface area (plant density) on the efficiency of organic carbon removal in a bench-scale constructed wetland. Constructed wetlands are commonly assumed to be biofilm reactors in which organic carbon removal occurs primarily through sedimentation and aerobic degradation by attached microbial biofilms. In conventional biofilm reactors, aerobic degradation of organic carbon is proportional to the amount of surface area for microbial attachment, provided that sufficient oxygen is available. In contrast, current design equations for constructed wetlands assume that the amount of surface area is not an important parameter. A bench-scale simulation of a constructed wetland was conducted, using bulrushes planted at varying plant densities in soil with a free water surface depth of about 0.27 m. The carbon source was diluted ENSUR (TM). Total organic carbon (TOC) removal was measured. Concentration of TOC was correlated with biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). Tests were conducted in conditions of light and dark, and under two different carbon loadings. Performance of bulrushes was compared with that of inert acrylic rods. The rate of carbon removal by mature bulrushes was found to increase with increasing plant density until oxygen became depleted. Higher densities degraded carbon at rates much faster than those predicted by current design equations. Young bulrushes degraded carbon at faster rates than mature bulrushes. Once oxygen was depleted, rates of degradation were reduced to rates anticipated by current models. When plant density was 15% or greater, oxygen became depleted in less than 6 hours. Removal efficiency was greater at higher loadings (70 mg/l BOD) than at lower loadings (25 mg/l BOD). Bulrushes performed significantly better than inert rods, sometimes by a full order of magnitude. The microbial community on the bulrushes appeared to be more complex and robust than that on the rods. Also, the presence of light did not significantly increase degradation rates for the bulrushes but was significant for the rods. The microbial community on the rods contained a larger proportion of epiphytic algae. The presence of light did result is greater overall efficiency of removal for both bulrush and rods. Currently, a major drawback of constructed wetlands in wastewater treatment has been their demand for large areas of land. This study suggests that it would be possible to reduce the land area requirements for constructed wetlands for both carbon removal and nitrification/denitrification provided designs gave more consideration to oxygen supply. Using current designs, a retention time of 4-8 days typically results in 70% BOD removal. This experiment suggests that wetlands with a retention time of about 1 day could provide the same performance if additional oxygen were supplied. Advisors/Committee Members: English, Marshall J.

▼ Spreading biosolids on farmland is a common biosolids management practice in western Canada. Wetland and terrestrial-based phytoremediation approaches may be viable options for remediating biosolids in end-of-life municipal lagoons. Water depth is regulated during wetland phytoremediation whereas there is no control of water regime during terrestrial phytoremediation. Studies were conducted to quantify cattail (Typha spp.) biomass and nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) phytoextraction from biosolids in (i) a wetland constructed in the former primary cell and (ii) a dewatered secondary cell of an end-of-life municipal lagoon. Overall, the phytoextraction of N and P by cattail was lower with a single harvest than two harvests per year. The study also examined the effects of harvest timing (August, November, and April) on nutrient removal in the harvested cattail biomass. Compared to August, harvesting cattails in the wetland in November or April reduced N and P phytoextraction by 63-85%. In the wetland study, nutrient phytoextraction was 6.2% of initial N content and 2.2% of initial P content while the terrestrial-based approach removed 5.8% and 2.3% of the initial N and P content, respectively. A greater fraction of P (~ 73%) taken up by cattail was sequestered in the rhizomes, which reduced its mobility and transport to surface waters. A study examining nutrient availability using plant root simulator (PRS) probes during wetland-based phytoremediation showed that N supply rate increased with time after July whereas phosphate supply rate remained relatively unchanged. Cumulative nutrient supply rate was positively correlated with plant uptake. The effects of flooding on P release during terrestrial phytoremediation in the secondary cell was investigated using biosolids cores. Dissolved reactive P (DRP) was the major fraction of P in floodwater. Flooding for more than 3 d resulted in the release of >0.5 mg L-1 DRP to floodwater. Our results suggest that biosolids pose a risk of P loss to surface water bodies receiving floodwater from the lagoon. Releasing floodwater closer to the start of the flooding event minimizes P release to floodwater. Overall, this research shows that phytoremediation is a viable, low-cost option for managing biosolids from end-of-life municipal lagoons.

▼ Phosphorus and nitrogen in waste water from sewerage systems contribute to excessive nutrient enrichment of surface waters, presenting a threat to nature conservation, domestic and industrial water supplies, and recreation. The general objective of this research was to investigate phosphate and ammonium removal from waste water by constructed wetland systems (CWS), which are increasingly being used for low-cost water treatment. Phosphate (P) adsorption capacity and other properties of potential CWS substrate materials (bauxite, shale, burnt oil shale, limestone, zeolite, light expanded clay aggregates (LECA) and fly ash) were investigated. Fly ash and shale had the highest P adsorption values, which were significantly correlated with porosity and hydraulic conductivity. Longer - term experiments with shale and bauxite gave maximum P uptake values of 730 and 355 mg P kg- I, respectively. Phragmites australis (common reed) seedlings grew satisfactorily in shale, bauxite, LECA and fly ash. Shale was selected as the most suitable substrate, and used in a pilot-scale CWS in plastic tanks in a greenhouse, with and without P. australis, at two input nutrient concentrations and a loading rate of 0.02 m3 m-2 d-1. Both planted and unplanted systems removed 98 - I 00% of P from a synthetic sewage over ll months. Removal of ammonium N was also complete in the planted tanks, but only 40 - 75% was removed in the unplanted ones. Corresponding nitrate N removal was 85 - 95% and 45 - 75%. The systems performed as well at high as at low concentration for both phosphate and ammonium. The variations in P and N removal could not be attributed to differences in pH, Eh and temperature, which did not differ significantly between planted and unplanted tanks. During the experiment, P and N concentrations were determined at 3 depths and 4 positions along the length of the tanks. H2P04- - P and NH/ - N concentrations were low ( < I. 0 g m-3) at all locations in the planted systems, whereas the P concentrations were sometimes twice as high in the unplanted ones. NH4 + -N in the unplanted systems was relatively high (l 0 - 30 g m"3) throughout the experiment. N03 – N concentrations were very low by comparison. P. precipitation on shale and P. australis root and rhizome surfaces was examined by X-ray fluorescence analysis, and by chemical extraction with ammonium acetate, 0.1 M HCI and 2%> citric acid. This showed that P, Fe and Al had precipitated on all these surfaces. However. it was not possible to quantify the surface deposits, and further research is necessary. The hydraulic residence time. flow characteristics and permeability of the shale was investigated by a bromide tracer. The tracer breakthrough curves showed a similar pattern in all tanks, with ca 66% of the flow occurring through the bottom zone. However, the actual hydraulic residence time (6 days) was slightly higher than the theoretical one Although there was a significant difference (p < 0.02) between the distribution of flow in planted and unplanted tanks. there was no reduction…

▼ Tehismärgalasid (TM) on viimase poole sajandi jooksul kasutatud reovee puhastumise alternatiivse meetodina konventsionaalsete puhastite kõrval. TM erinevad omadused, sealhulgas filtermaterjali tüüp, tööparameetrid ning samuti taimestiku olemasolu, mõjutavad mikroobikoosluste struktuuri, ruumilist jaotust ja aktiivsust süsteemis. Kuna mikroobsed protsessid on TM reovee puhastusel olulise tähtsusega, aitavad uuringud mikroobiökoloogias laiendada teadmisi mikroobikoosluse kujunemisest ja seostest TM tööparameetritega, võimaldades seeläbi luua stabiilse ja metaboolselt aktiivse mikroobikoosluse jaoks sobiliku TM keskkonna ja selle kaudu tõsta erinevate reoainete puhastamise efektiivsust. Käesoleva doktoritöö eesmärgiks oli uurida eri tüüpi TM mikroobikoosluse arvukust ja struktuuri ning kuidas mikroobikoosluse parameetrid on seotud TM puhastusefektiivsusega ja millised keskkonnafaktorid mõjutavad mikroobikoosluse stabiliseerumist uuritavates süsteemides. Uurimisobjektideks olid kolm eri tüüpi TM, millest kaks olid vastrajatud eksperimentaalset TM ja üks üle 15 aasta kasutuses olnud vabaveeline jõevett puhastav TM kompleks. Saadud tulemused näitasid, et reovee koostis, TM tüüp ja töörežiim mõjutavad bakterikoosluse kujunemist ja struktuuri tehismärgalas. Mikroobikoosluse struktuuri kujunemisel oli näha sarnast ajalist suktsessiooni kahe eksperimentaalse TM vahel. Mikroobikoosluse mitmekesisus tõusis märgatavalt mõlema süsteemi esimese kolme kuu jooksul ja seejärel stabiliseerus, sealhulgas olid algsed muutused mikroobikoosluse kujunemisel suurema varieeruvusega kui pärast stabiliseerumist. Nii mikroobikoosluse mitmekesisus kui ka teatud bakteriperekondade osakaalud olid seotud nende süsteemide puhastusefektiivsustega. Töö tulemused kinnitasid mitmete koosesinevate bakterirühmade mõju nii lämmastiku kui orgaaniliste ühendite eemaldamisele reoveest. Uuritavates TM olid peamisteks lämmastikuärastuse protsessideks autotroofne ja heterotroofne nitrifikatsioon ning denitrifikatsioon ning vähemal määral anaeroobne ammooniumi oksüdeerimine, eelkõige vabaveelises tehismärgalas. Käesoleva doktoritöö tulemuste põhjal saab teha järelduse, et erinevate reoainete parimaks eemaldamiseks tuleks TM konstrueerida ja opereerida meetodil, mis loovad sobiva keskkonna mitmekesise ja kõrge metaboolse aktiivsusega mikroobikoosluse kujunemiseks.; Treatment wetlands (TWs) have been used over fifty years for purification of different types of wastewater. Pollutant removal processes in TWs are mostly related to microbiologically mediated reactions. Knowledge of the microbial community dynamics and structure and the relationship with the system properties and operating conditions is therefore crucial for the development and optimization of effective TWs. In this thesis, bacterial community abundance, structure and diversity was evaluated, as well as their relationship with the pollutant removal potential in three different types of TWs: experimental greywater-fed hybrid TW, horizontal subsurface flow filters of an experimental hybrid TW, and riverine… Advisors/Committee Members: Truu, Jaak, juhendaja (advisor), Truu, Marika, juhendaja (advisor).

▼ In the past, the Taiwanese government was committed to implementing industrial development policies that emphasized economic development. These policies subsequently led to the destructions of Taiwanâs ecology. However, the rise of domestic environmental awareness and industry transformations have gradually increased peopleâs attention to measures that protect the environment, in which the concept of artificial wetlands serves as one of these measures. Artificial wetlands are mainly divided into constructed wetlands and created wetlands. Constructed wetlands are artificial wetlands that have been ameliorated by improving their water quality. By contrast, created wetlands are wetlands that entail recovering ecological habitats or creating nature-like biological habitats to provide or replace existing biological habitats. The Yuanzhonggang Wetland Park is a wetland park located in Nanzi District, Kaohsiung City. Because the region is located next to an area to be built into a second-generation naval ship base, the construction of the naval ship base will inevitably exhibit an effect on the habitat environment. Therefore, the Yuanzhonggang wetlands are classified and positioned as âcompensatoryâ created wetlands and efforts to recover their ecological habitats have been made accordingly. The goals are to recover mangroves, emphasize the use of native tree species, and serve the functions of flood control, water purification, landscape-based recreation, and ecological education. Located in the Nanzi District, Kaohsiung City, the Yuanzhonggang Wetland Park measures 29.41 ha and is divided into an east and west region by the Nanzi Wastewater Treatment Plant. The east and west wetlands are freshwater and brackish water-type ecosystems, respectively, in which the water for the east region primarily comes from secondary effluents discharged by the Nanzi Wastewater Treatment Plant. The said effluents are subsequently purified by constructed wetlands before being released into the Dianbao River. The west region is located in the tidal river section of the Dianbao River estuary, where brackish water of the Dianbao River flows into the Yuanzhonggang Wetland Park at high tide. In this study, water purification results of the constructed wetlands in the east and west regions were assessed to determine whether they achieved the desired effectiveness. Water purification samples were collected once a season, where spring and neap tides were obtained at high and low tides and analyzed for water quality including their biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) as well as ammoniacal nitrogen, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, nitrite, nitric acid, orthophosphate, total phosphorus, and total carbon contents. The results of the east and west regions were subsequently compared. According to the results, of the four seasons, constructed wetlands of the east region and created wetlands of the west region displayed the most optimal pollution removal effect in the hot seasons (i.e., summer and fall). For spring and neap tides at the west outlet, total phosphorus… Advisors/Committee Members: Lei Yang (committee member), Chin-Ming Kao (chair), Tzung-Yuh Yeh (chair).

▼ The use of constructed wetlands in New Zealand and their role as an attenuation tool for removing nutrients from agricultural runoff are examined in this study. The need for attenuation is evident through frequent documentation stating that streams flowing through dairy farms are high in nutrients as a result of non-point source pollution from agricultural runoff and fertiliser use. Constructed wetlands are one such attenuation tool that has the potential to ameliorate these water quality issues via a myriad of chemical, biological and physical processes that allows the wetland to act as a filter for polluted water. The objective of this study was to quantify nutrient loads from a small dairy unit at Telford Research Farm to provide baseline data in which to test the efficacy of a constructed wetland. Weekly water samples were collected from the wetland during winter flow and more frequent samples were taken during event flow. These were analysed for total phosphorous (TP), total nitrogen (TN), nitrate (NO3), ammonium (NH4), phosphate (PO4) and total suspended sediment (TSS). Nutrient removal of 63% and 50% for 2011 and 2012 respectively for NO3, as well as consistent TP removal of around 25% indicate that this gully is acting as a wetland. Clear flood peak attenuation is also evident, a further characteristic of a wetland. However, variable results achieved under base flow and event flow by NH4, TN and PO4 combined with continued sediment export as high as 98% under base flow suggests otherwise. Future modifications at this site, such as the planting of macrophytes and creating pools within the wetland will increase attenuation of both N and P forms as well as total suspended sediment. Site modifications combined with best management practices and long term monitoring will ensure Telford farm maintains a high standard of water quality as well as generating valuable information to provide farming communities with knowledge on constructed wetlands and their potential to be used as a water quality management tool within the farming landscape of New Zealand.

▼ This comparative study explores the mechanisms of pollutant removal efficiency in cold-climate constructed wetlands (CWs) and investigates the benefits, standing and practicability of using these systems to treat wastewater in Canada and Northern China. Treatment efficiencies defined by the Canadian and Northern China experience vary considerably. Experience in both countries shows that the majority of effluent values are generally better than that required by discharge standards in Canada and China. A review of the available case studies on cold weather treatment in both countries indicates that this technology is feasible in Canada and Northern China, although further monitoring data are needed to optimize CW design and ensure that the effluent quality standards are consistently met. In both of these countries and around the globe, increasingly strict water quality standards and the growing application of treatment wetlands for wastewater treatment is an important motive for the development of better numerical models as predictive process design tools. An investigation of the SubWet 2.0 model, a horizontal subsurface flow modeling program used to predict the level of treatment that can be expected was conducted. It has been shown that SubWet can consider the influence of several factors at one time, where empirical equations are generally not able to consider more than two factors at one time and usually in isolation of the other influential parameters. Three different data sets, two from natural wetlands from the Canadian Arctic and one from a CW in Africa were used to illustrate how SubWet can be calibrated to specific wetlands. Compared to other models, it is suggested that SubWet provides one of the best modeling options available for natural tundra wetlands. Further calibration of SubWet with twelve municipal treatment wetlands in the Canadian Arctic clearly demonstrated its ability to model treatment performance within natural tundra wetlands and thus provide an additional predictive tool to aid northern stakeholders in the treatment of municipal effluents. It is anticipated that increased monitoring and the generation of additional measured data will help to better identify the level of year to year variability and improve the overall predictive capability of the model.
