The systemwas developed by the authors as a constructed wetland to increase the removal efficiency. The constructed wetland could be used to remove various kinds of pollutants such as pathogens, suspended solids, organic matters, nitrogen compounds, phosphorus compounds, inorganic matters such as heavy metals, and so on. The ad - vantages of the constructed wetland are low cost, easy operation and maintenance, not so high technology and low energy consumption. However, the disadvantages of the system are large area requirement and selection of the suitable plant species. Nowadays, the constructed wetland is popular and is used for various kinds of wastewater such as domestic, agricultural and industrial wastewaters.
