| 1 | Performance of hybrid constructed wetland systems for treating septic tank effluent显示文摘The integrated wetland systems were constructed by combining horizonta l-flow and vertical-flow bed, and their purification efficiencies for septic tan k effluent were detected when the hydraulic retention time (HRT) was 1 d, 3 d, 5 d under different seasons. The results showed that the removal efficiencies of the organics, phosphorus were steady in the hybrid systems, but the removal effi ciency of total nitrogen was not steady due to high total nitrogen concentration in the septic tank effluent. The average removal rates of COD (chemical oxygen demand) were 89%, 87%, 83%, and 86% in summer, autumn, winter and spring, respec tively, and it was up to 88%, 85%, 73%, and 74% for BOD5 (5 d biochemical oxygen demand) removal rate in four seasons. The average removal rates of TP (total ph osphorous) could reach up to 97%, 98%, 95%, 98% in four seasons, but the removal rate of TN (total nitrogen) was very low. The results of this study also indica ted that the capability of purification was the worst in winter. Cultivating wit h plants could improve the treated effluent quality from the hybrid systems. The results of the operation of the horizontal-flow and vertical-flow cells (hybrid systems) showed that the removal efficiencies of the organics, TP and TN in hor izontal-flow and vertical-flow cells were improved significantly with the extens ion of HRT under the same season. The removal rate of 3 d HRT was obviously high er than that of 1 d HRT, and the removal rate of 5 d HRT was better than that of 3 d HRT, but the removal efficiency was not very obvious with the increment of HRT. Therefore, 3 d HRT might be recommended in the actual operation of the hybr id systems for economic and technical reasons. | CUI Li-hua LIU Wen ZHUXi-zhen MA Mei HUANG Xi-hua XIA Yan-yang | 2006 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2006，18，4： | 3 |
