Tertiary Treatment of Wastewater Using Cypress Wetlands.

摘要

Intense field investigation,testing,and research were conducted for the purpose of providing tertiary treatment utilizing cypress domes. Presented in four annual reports,the research has demonstrated high quality treatment using cypress domes,while recycling water and helping to protect the environment from periodic drought conditions. Treatment concepts and results,cost-effectiveness,energy and environmental considerations,reliability,regulatory agency aspects,availability,and a proposed rule for application of domestic wastewater to cypress wetlands are discussed. Also included are considerations for an engineering design of a cypress wetland tertiary treatment system and the dissemination of information through seminars and conferences,publications,workshops,and reports.
