| Description | Constructed wetlands technology is emerging as a low-cost, easily operated efficient alternative to conventional treatment systems for a wide variety of wastewaters. The most common uses are for treatment of municipal wastewaters and acid mine drainage. Other applications include textile $waste,^{ 1 }$ photo lab $waste,^{ 2 }$ pulp mill $effluent,^{ 3 }$ refinery $effluent,^{ 4 }$ swine farrowing and feeding $waste,^{ 5 }$ poultry rendering $wastes,^{ 6,7 }$ landfill $leachate,^{8–10}$ and urban $runoff.^{11–13}$ Although use for a variety of wastewaters is increasing, information on design, operation, and performance is sketchy and confusing. Information is adequate for system design to reduce targeted pollutants but inadequate to optimize design and operation for consistent compliance.
