Landfill leachate treatment using sub-surface flow constructed wetland by Cyperus haspan.
TL;DR: The study proved that leachate could be treated effectively using subsurface constructed wetlands with C. haspan plant and the significance of removal was manifested in the quality of the effluent obtained at the end of the study.

Dong Liu,Xu Wu,Jie Chang,Baojing Gu,Yong Min,Ying Ge,Yan Shi,Hui Xue,Hui Xue,Changhui Peng,Changhui Peng,Jianguo Wu,Jianguo Wu +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors advocate the efficient production of cellulosic biofuel using waste nitrogen through wastewater treatment with constructed wetlands in China, and the analysis suggests that the net life-cycle energy output of constructed wetlands is higher than many other biofuel production systems.

Constructed wetland, an eco-technology for wastewater treatment: A review on types of wastewater treated and components of the technology (macrophyte, biolfilm and substrate).
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of constructed wetland (CW) applications is presented, focusing on the concerns for extracting maximum benefit of macrophyte (focusing on interface of pollutant removal, root radial oxygen loss, root iron plaque, endophyte-macrophyte assisted treatment in CW, and prospects of energy harvesting from microphyte) and role of biofilm.

Potential of constructed wetlands in treating the eutrophic water: evidence from Taihu Lake of China.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the constructed wetlands could well treat the eutrophic lake waters in Taihu if land limiting is considered, and VSF and HSF are more appropriate than FWS under higher hydraulic loading rate.

Improvement of domestic wastewater quality by subsurface flow constructed wetlands
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of these investigations indicate that the organic load, fecal coliform populations and the N and P concentrations of the septic water decreased considerably by passing through the constructed wetlands.

Organic Waste Recycling: Technology and Management
TL;DR: In this paper, the principles and practices of technologies for the control of pollution originating from organic wastes (e.g. human faeces and urine, wastewater, solid wastes, animal manure and agro-industrial wastes) and the recycling of these organic wastes into valuable products such as fertilizer, bio-fuels, algal and fish protein and irrigated crops are discussed.
