The increasing application of constructed wetlands for leachate treatment is an ever-growing incentive for the development of better process design tools. This book provides a study that was conducted to investigate leachate treatment performance of horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands (HSSFCW) installed with water dispersal system, called Safety Flow® to produce a defined subsurface wetting pattern along the line and length of the system. A pilot scale HSSFCW with three parallel reactors was set up with dimensions of 2.45 m length x 0.20 m width x 0.40 m depth. All reactors were dosed using pre-treatment leachate effluent from a landfill in Malaysia. Out of the three reactors, Reactors A and C were planted with Thypha angustifolia, whilst reactor B was not planted and used as a control. In addition, reactor C was installed with water dispersal system. The performance of constructed wetlands system was evaluated from the effluent quality. The main ...
