Abstract

All around the world, the constructed wetland is a variation for for reusing treated water by irrigation the landscaping. Based on the synthesis and metabolism of different plant species, nutrients, especially nitrogen and phosphorus, in wastewater has been removed. Therefore, the article evaluates the ability of reusing municipal treated water from combined sewerage system for technology constructed wetland. Based on building and operating model wetland in municipal wastewater treatment plant for 2 months, adaptability of 2 selected plant species in model include Canna generalis and Portulaca grandiflora has been determined. At first, the experiment evaluates of the growth and development of plants. After that, based on operated model with with hydraulic rention time was 48 hours and hydraulic loading rate is approximately 0.2 m3/m2/d, the efficiency transformation of Nitrogen in range 30 – 40% with Canna generalis and 20 – 30% with Portulaca grandiflora. Moreover, the preformance removing ortho phosphorus of both models in range 40 – 60%. Sumerize, the synthesis and metabolism of nutrients by these plants will reduce the loading of biological reactor in wastewater treatment plants.
