The study on the wetland plant species and their resistance is the key to ecological wastewater treatment technology. The study on the effects of wastewater duress on the physical and chemical properties of constructed wetland plants and the anti-stress capability of constructed wetland plants can provide theoretical basis and technical support for constructed wetland plant material selection. By adopting surface flow constructed wetland system, the effects are studied on MDA in 4 common plants in Shandong (Phragmites communis, Typha oriental, Arundo donax and Canna generalis) in different wastewater duress time. The results show: All in all, Phragmites communis and Canna generalis have stronger anti-stress capability, while Arundo donax and Typha oriental has weaker anti-stress capability; but as wastewater duress time increases, the anti-stress capability of Phragmites communis decreases, while the anti-stress capability of Canna generalis increases.

The study on the species selection of constructed wetland plants and the purification effects of the constructed wetland plants is the key to ecological wastewater treatment technology. The purification effects of different residence time of wastewater, different constructed wetland plants and their synergistic effect are studied in TP disposal in living wastewater. The results show that the best plant combination in purifying TP is that of Arundo donax, Typha orientalis and Canna generalis, followed by that of Phragmites communis, Arundo donax and Canna generalis. The best plant species in purifying TP is Canna generalis, followed by Arundo donax.

The research on the species selection of constructed wetland plants and the purification effects of the plants is crucial in ecological wastewater treatment technology. This paper studies the purification effects of different residence time of sewage water, different constructed wetland plants and their synergistic effect on COD disposal in domestic sewage. The results indicate that the best plant combination in purifying COD is that of Phragmites communis, Typha orientalis and Canna generalis, followed by that of Phragmites communis, Arundo donax and Canna generalis. The best plant species in purifying COD is Typha orientalis, followed by Phragmites communis.

The research which is the species selection of constructed wetland plants and the resistance of the plants is the key to ecological wastewater treatment technology. This paper studies the change of chlorophyll content in 4 wetland plants (Phragmites communis, Typha orientalis, Arundo donax and Canna generalis) in different wastewater duress time. The results show: chlorophyll contents in Canna generalis and Arundo donax have less change, and their anti-stress capability are stronger.

The study on the resistance of different wetland plants to wastewater duress is the key to ecological wastewater treatment technology. This paper studies the change of soluble protein content in 4 common wetland plants (Phragmites communis, Typha angustata, Arundo donax and Canna generalis) in Shandong in different wastewater duress time. The results show: when the wastewater duress time is 2 days and 4 days, soluble protein content in Phragmites communis has minimal change, and its anti-stress capability is the strongest; when the wastewater duress time is 6 days, soluble protein content in Canna generalis has minimal change, and its anti-stress capability is the strongest, followed by Typha angustata.

The need to protect our water resources and increasing public awareness of the importance of cleaner water for ecological and human health reasons are driving regulations limiting nutrient release from traditionally exempt, non-point source agricultural contributors. Modification of production practices alone may not be adequate to meet regulated nutrient criterion limits for irrigation and stormwater runoff entering surface waters. Three constructed wetland technologies are well suited to help agricultural producers meet current and future regulations. The first two technologies, surface- and subsurface-flow constructed wetlands, have been in use for over 40 years to cleanse various types of wastewater, whereas floating treatment wetlands are an emerging remediation technology with potential for both stormwater and agricultural runoff treatment applications. The mechanisms driving removal of both nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in constructed wetland systems are discussed. Surface-flow constructed wetlands remediate N contaminants from both container nursery and greenhouse production wastewater, whereas P remediation is variable and tied most closely to active plant growth as the constructed wetland ages. Subsurface-flow constructed wetlands effectively remediate N from production wastewater and can be tailored to increase consistency of P remediation through selection of P-sorbing root-bed substrates. Floating treatment wetlands effectively remediate both N and P with a designed surface area of a pond covered depending on the target effluent concentration or regulated total maximum daily load. The choice of treatment technology applied by growers to meet regulated water quality targets should be based on both economic and site-specific considerations.

Several different types of constructed wetland systems are being used as decentralized treatment systems including surface-flow, subsurface-flow, vertical-flow, and hybrid systems. Archetypical wetland systems have design strengths and weaknesses, and therefore it should be possible to design combined (integrated) systems to optimize a number of important treatment processes. This study provides comparative efficacy data for two integrated wetland treatment systems (IWTS) designed to enhance treatment of medium strength wastewater generated from a pilot-scale intensive fish farm. Results from the twenty eight months study included consistently high removal of COD (84%+) and ammonia nitrogen (93%) in both systems. Initially, phosphorus removal was also high (>90%) in both systems, but removal efficacy declined significantly over time. Nitrate removal was significantly better in the system that provided sequential aerobic and anoxic environments. Short hydraulic retention times coupled with sustained removal of COD and ammonia indicate that the ReCip components could be a least-cost wastewater treatment technology in the decentralized market sector.

To solve the problem of short-circuit of individual current constructed wetland, a baffled constructed wetland was designed and applied to treat domestic sewage by our research group. The wetland plants were composed of Eichhormia crassipes, Oenanthe javanica, Cyperusalternifolius, Phragmites communis and Aquatic. The results of 18 month indicated that the optimal hydraulic load of baffled constructed wetland was 2.0~2.2 m3/(m2•d). At the hydraulic load of 2.0m3/(m2•d), the COD, TN and TP removal rates of baffled constructed wetland could be over 76.40%, 76.12%, 65.37%, respectively, at 24°C. When the temperature decreased to 12°C, the COD, TN, TP removal rates of system decreased to 67.56%、62.75% and 61.33%, respectively; The SS removal rate of the first 6 compartments was about 79.5% and that of system could maintain 87.18% during the operation of system. Based on the results of trial, the mechanisms of extending the baffled constructed wetland's operational life was owed to high efficient SS removal rate of the first 6 compartments which was used as constructed wetland and anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR). As a result, the long-term stable operation of system in treatment of domestic sewage was explained with extending about 5 times service life than that of individual current constructed wetland. The mechanisms of higher efficiency of baffled constructed wetland in treatment of domestic sewage were owed to the longer flow line of system and the up-down flow of domestic sewage makes pollutant more intimate contact with roots of wetland plants.
