Summary: This study evaluated the long-term water quality trends and drivers of a constructed wetland in South Australia. The results showed that nitrogen was only partially removed by the wetland and served as a source of organic material and phosphorus. The removal efficiency of nitrogen was affected by hydraulic loading rates and varied with seasons and management practices. The findings highlight the importance of closely monitoring the long-term performance of constructed wetlands.

Summary: This study evaluated the influence of two different feeding modes on the wastewater treatment performance and oxygen consumption rate of unsaturated (UVF) and partially saturated (SVF) constructed wetlands under subtropical climate conditions for four years. The results showed that operating the wetlands with a specific hydraulic loading rate of around 4 L m(-2) mm(-1) and a specific pulse volume of 26 L m(-2) is preferable, leading to reduced inlet pumping power requirements and less superficial area requirements.

Summary: A combined process of reflux deodorization and tidal flow constructed wetland showed high removal efficiencies of COD, NH4+-N, TP, sulfide, and TON in treating septic tank wastewater, with optimal operation achieved at a reflux ratio of 150%. Thiobacillus in the system can conduct simultaneous denitrification and deodorization. Controlling the ratios of p(NO3--N)/p(S2-) and p(COD)/p(NO3-N) helps achieve good denitrification and deodorization effects in the deodorization pool.

Summary: This study developed a novel strategy for achieving partial nitrification-anammox (PNA) in an integrated vertical subsurface flow constructed wetland (VSFCW) to improve the removal of nitrogen in rural domestic sewage. The strategy involved oxidizing ammonia to nitrite in the partial nitrification VSFCW and then removing ammonia and nitrite through the autotrophic anammox process in the following chamber. The results showed high removal efficiencies for chemical oxygen demand, total nitrogen, and PO43--P, confirming the feasibility of the proposed strategy.

Summary: Water scarcity is a global issue, and recycled municipal wastewater has been considered as an alternative solution. This study utilized a shallow constructed wetland with porous filter material and Rotala rotundifolia for advanced municipal sewage treatment. The results showed that the wetland efficiently removed pollutants from the effluent and met the standard requirements. The presence of plant roots significantly increased the richness and evenness of the bacterial community, with phosphate-solubilizing bacteria, nitrifying bacteria, and denitrifying bacteria being the dominant genera.

Summary: Eutrophication is a global environmental issue that impairs water quality, threatens drinking water safety, and hinders regional economic development. This study proposes an effective technical program, utilizing a composite iron-carbon constructed wetland combined with a photocatalytic film, to restore eutrophic water. The experimental results show significant improvement in water quality after treatment, with a large number of microalgae on the wetland exerting a reoxygenation effect and enhancing the self-purification capacity of the water body. Enhancing the hydraulic performance of constructed wetlands and the activity of photocatalytic films can improve the remediation of eutrophic water bodies.

Summary: This study investigates the potential of 14 tropical wetland plant species for removing heavy metals from domestic sewage. The results indicate that most plants can act as magnesium phytostabilisers and calcium phytoextractors, but no plant species demonstrated ferrum phytoextraction properties. Only three species depicted phytoextraction and phytostabilisation properties for manganese phytoremediation. The enrichment factor (EF) for all studied metals decreased after the phytoremediation experiments, indicating depletion to mineral enrichment (EF < 2).

Summary: The study found that using ceramsite and soil as media in VFCWs can effectively remove fluoroquinolones and conventional pollutants in rural domestic wastewater. Under low hydraulic load, VFCW-D filled with 45 cm soil layer and 15 cm ceramsite layer had the highest removal efficiency. However, under high hydraulic load, the removal efficiency of conventional pollutants significantly declined due to the clogging of soil pores by organic matter accumulation. Nevertheless, VFCW-A filled with 60 cm ceramsite layer showed good ability to remove both conventional pollutants and fluoroquinolones under high hydraulic load.

Summary: In this study, a continuous system combining a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) with a horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (HSSFCW) was used for the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia (NH4+), and paracetamol. The system showed high removal efficiency for these pollutants by adjusting the initial concentration, hydraulic retention time (HRT), and COD to NH4+ ratio (C/N ratio). Further analysis revealed that microbial degradation, plant uptake, and substrate adsorption were the dominant removal mechanisms in the system.

Summary: This study investigated the flocculation of nanoplastics (NPs) on layered double hydroxides (LDHs) in water through heteroaggregation analysis under various conditions, revealing the interaction mechanisms and interface reactions. The results showed that the optimal conditions for NP removal were a Mg:Al ratio of 3:1 and a calcination temperature of 300 degrees C. The interparticle forces were dominated by electrostatic repulsion at short distances, transitioning to van der Waals and electrostatic attractions at longer distances, leading to particle attachment.

Summary: This study evaluates the performance of ozonation and adsorption as in-series processes compared to standalone processes for the removal of Contaminants of Emerging Concern (CECs) in drinking water. The combination of both processes proves to be more effective than adsorption and ozonation alone. Ozonation improves the adsorption performance of poorly-oxidizable CECs but worsens that of well-oxidizable compounds. This research highlights the importance of considering both processes in the removal of CECs in drinking water treatment plants.

Summary: The exacerbation of global warming, extreme weather events, and rapid urbanization have led to increased flooding in urban areas. China has adopted sponge city as an efficient means of preventing and controlling urban floods. Using a SWMM-FVCOM model, the hydrological reduction and control effect of sponge city construction (SPCC) within a university campus were evaluated. The study found that implementing SPCC effectively mitigates surface runoff and reduces the severity of urban flooding. However, the efficacy of runoff control decreases with longer rainfall return periods.
