TL;DR: This article provides an overview on the concept of applying floating HRM and non-floating HRM filters for wastewater treatment, and the advantages and disadvantages of this technology are discussed in comparison to those of ponds, free- floating plant and soil-based constructed wetlands.

Performance of pilot-scale horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland coupled with a microbial fuel cell for treating wastewater
TL;DR: In this article, a new hybrid technology for treating wastewater along with electricity generation is presented, which integrates a microbial fuel cell (MFC) into a horizontal subsurface constructed wetland (HSSF-CW-MFC), at a pilot scale for improving the wastewater treatment performance.

TL;DR: Findings demonstrated that the N uptake by M. aquaticum contributed to a considerable proportion of N removal from swine wastewater, and the activities of ammonia-oxidizing and denitrification microbes responsible for nitrification and Denitrification processes in M.

Impact of plant species on spatial distribution of metabolic potential and functional diversity of microbial communities in a constructed wetland treating aquaculture wastewater
TL;DR: In this paper, two horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands, one planted with Iris pseudacorus (HF1) and the other with Phragmites australis (HF2), were built to treat aquaculture wastewater.

Application of floating treatment wetlands for stormwater runoff: A critical review of the recent developments with emphasis on heavy metals and nutrient removal
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the current understanding of hydraulics and other parameters of FTW, and associated mechanisms to enhance the treatment efficiency of FTWs for nutrients and heavy metals removal are presented.

Removal of nutrients in various types of constructed wetlands.
TL;DR: The processes that affect removal and retention of nitrogen during wastewater treatment in constructed wetlands (CWs) are manifold and include NH(3) volatilization, nitrification, denitrification, nitrogen fixation, plant and microbial uptake, mineralization, mineralification, nitrate reduction to ammonium, anaerobic ammonia oxidation, fragmentation, sorption, desorption, burial, and leaching.

Chlorophyll fluorescence as a nonintrusive indicator for rapid assessment of in vivo photosynthesis
TL;DR: In the past, ecophysiologically oriented photosynthesis research has been governed by gas exchange measurements, mainly involving sophisticated (and costly) systems for simultaneous detection of CO2 uptake and H2O evaporation.
