Abstract The technology of vertical flow constructed wetlands – French system for treating raw wastewater depends on several hydraulic factors, one of them being the duration of the pulse feeding and the resulting instantaneous hydraulic loading rate. This paper analyses two scenarios in the same system, the first of a faster feeding by pump and the second of a slower feeding by siphon, both with instantaneous hydraulic loading rate values lower than the literature recommendations. The system treated raw wastewater from a population equivalent of 100 p.e. in Brazil, and was comprised by only the first stage and two units in parallel. The shorter duration of feeding time and higher instantaneous hydraulic loading rate were associated with significantly higher chemical oxygen demand and total Kjeldahl nitrogen removal efficiencies, but with no significant differences in terms of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and suspended solids (SS). Oxygen concentrations and redox potential in the effluent were evaluated, together with the effluent flow rate profiles. The removal efficiencies were associated with the accumulation of solids in the upper part of the filter resulting from seven years of operation and to the operating hydraulic conditions, which are important elements in the performance of the system.

<p><em>The research aimed to make Volcanic soil of Multiple Soil Layering (MSL) with different Hydraulic Loading Rate (HLR) on the purification of polluted irrigation water and to determine the appropriate HLR against purification of polluted irrigation water. The research used an MSL system of the same Soil Mixture Block (SMB) size from a study done by </em><em>(Chen et al., 2007)</em><em> arranged in an Acrylic box measuring 50 cm x 10 cm x 60 cm (PxLxT). Making SMB is done by mixing volcanic soil, sawdust, iron, charcoal that has been mashed by 50 mesh sieve, with a combination of 7: 1: 1: 1. The MSL system is supplied with irrigation water taken from the Gunuang Nago irrigation and Pasar Baru area, Cupak Tangah village, Pauh IX sub-district, Padang continuously with different HLR of 250 L/m<sup>2</sup>/day,     500 L/m<sup>2</sup>/ day and 1000 L/m<sup>2</sup>/day. From the result of this research, it is found that MSL system can decrease pollutant content in polluted irrigation water until the concentration below the water quality standard based on PP. 82 of 2001 and MSL system with HLR 250 L/m<sup>2</sup>/day have high ability in purifying BOD and COD and HLR 1000 L/m<sup>2</sup>/day has a high ability in purifying NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>, NO<sub>2</sub><sup>-</sup> and NO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup> on polluted irrigation water.</em></p><p class="jbd-alamat"> </p><p class="jbd-alamat">Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menentukan pengaruh tanah vulkanik dalam sistem <em>Multiple Soil Layering</em> (MSL) dengan <em>Hydraulic Loading Rate</em> (HLR) yang berbeda terhadap pemurnian air irigasi terpolusi.

Aeration experiments, maintaining nappe flow conditions, were carried out on a rectangular stepped cascade of total height 3.0 m to determine the total number of steps, slope of the entire cascade and hydraulic loading rate at which maximum overall aeration efficiency occurs, keeping the surface area of individual steps constant. Based on dimensional analysis, the overall aeration efficiency at standard conditions (E20) was expressed as a function of square of total number of steps (N2) and dimensionless discharge (dc/h), where dc and h represent critical depth in a rectangular prismatic channel and individual step height respectively. An empirical equation with E20 as the response and N2 and dc/h as the independent parameters was developed based on the experimental results subject to 36 ≤ N2 ≤ 196 and 0.009 ≤ dc/h ≤ 0.144. The experimental results showed that the overall aeration efficiency (E20) for a particular step height of stepped cascade increases with increase in dc/h up to a certain value and then decreases. This may be due to at higher dc/h, i.e., at higher hydraulic loading rate, the flow approaches the transition zone and thereby aeration efficiency decreases. E20 was also found to increase with number of steps at any hydraulic loading rate, because of the increased surface area of fall. The optimum number of steps, slope of the entire stepped cascade and hydraulic loading rate were found to be 14, 0.351 and 0.009 m2/s respectively producing the maximum value of overall aeration efficiency of 0.90.

Bulk Organic Matter

The effect of hydraulic loading rate (HLR) and media type on the removal of bulk organic matter and nitrogen from primary effluent during soil aquifer treatment was investigated by conducting laboratory-scale soil column studies. Two soil columns packed with silica sand were operated at HLRs of 0.625 and 1.25 m/d, while a third column was packed with dune filtering material and operated at HLR of 1.25 m/d. Bulk organic matter was effectively removed by 47.5 ± 1.2% and 45.1 ± 1.2% in silica sand columns operated at 0.625 and 1.25 m/d, respectively and 57.3 ± 7.6% in dune filtering material column operated at 1.25 m/d. Ammonium-nitrogen reduction of 74.5 ± 18.0% was achieved at 0.625 m/d compared to 39.1 ± 4.3% at 1.25 m/d in silica sand columns, whereas 49.2 ± 5.2% ammonium-nitrogen reduction was attained at 1.25 m/d in the dune filtering material column. Ammonium-nitrogen reduction in the first 3 m was assumed to be dominated by nitrification process evidenced by corresponding increase in nitrate. Part of the ammonium-nitrogen was adsorbed onto the media, which was observed at higher rates between 3 and 5 m in silica sand column operated at HLR of 0.625 m/d and dune filtering material column operated at 1.25 m/d compared to 1.25 m/d silica.
