| Description | Components of a constructed wetlands treatment system (CWTS) include preliminary/primary treatment units and the constructed wetlands cell (or cells). The constructed wetlands (CW) includes substrate, vegetation, and biological organisms contained within a physical configuration that can be described as an attached-growth biological filter. Major pollutant removal mechanisms include sedimentation and filtration (physical), precipitation and adsorption (chemical), and bacterial metabolism (biological). A CWTS can be designed to achieve various levels of secondary and advanced level treatment for $BOD_{5}$, suspended solids, nutrients, pathogens, metals, and other substances.
