Phytoremediation potential of Vetiveria zizanioides and Oryza sativa to nitrate and organic substance removal in vertical flow constructed wetland systems
Ecological Engineering(2019)
Abstract
•Application of Vetiveria zizanioides and Oryza sativa in VF-CWs was analyzed.•The best effects of NO3−-N removal were for a hydraulic load No. 2 = 241 dm3·m−2·d−1.•The ratio of COD/NO3-N in wastewater affected the efficiency of NO3-N removal.•The best effects of COD removal in the VFCW-1 were for hydraulic load HL2 – 55%.•The best effects of COD removal in the VFCW-2 were for hydraulic load HL1 – 43%.•Vetiveria zizanioides has a good potential in NO3-N and COD removal from sewage.
