Optimization of decentralized treatment and sanitation of domestic wastewaters via constructed wetlands: The DOMUS_CW project
(Corresponding) Ntaikou I., Antonopoulou G., Vyrides I., Drakopoulos V., Dailianis S., Lyberatos G.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The DOMUS_CW project proposes the adoption of a simple, cost efficient and highly effective practice for the treatment of domestic/household wastewaters in rural areas of Balkan and Mediterranean (BalkanMed) countries, i.e. treatment via constructed wetlands (CWs). Two free surface flow CWs...Read more
TREATMENT OF SLAUGHTER HOUSE WASTEWATER UTILIZING COGON GRASS (Imperata cylindrica) IN A SUBSURFACE FLOW SYSTEM CONSTRUCTED WETLAND IN ZAMBOANGA CITY, PHILIPPINES
(Corresponding) Flores R., (Corresponding) Adil J.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Natural treatment systems are gaining a preference for wastewater treatment as an ecosystem-based adaptation to climate change. This study investigated the performance of a laboratory scale horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (SSFCW) planted with cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica) in...Read more
AN INTEGRATED APPROACH FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF CONSTRUCTED WETLANDS OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY, USING BOTH CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL DATA
(Corresponding) Dailianis S., Charalambous N., Foiniris S., Komodromou A., Cocilovo C., Dormousoglou M., Lyberatos G., Ntaikou I.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The present study evaluated the operational efficiency of a constructed wetland (CW) located at Andritsaina/Krestena municipality (Western Greece, Peloponnese, Greece), using a battery of tests and bioassays. Specifically, raw WWs entering the CW basins with broadleaf cattail Typha latifolia (raw-...Read more

Use of ornamental plants in floating treatment wetlands for greywater treatment in buildings: preliminary results
(Corresponding) Stefanatou A., Schiza S., Petousi I., Rizzo A., Masi F., Fyllas N., Fountoulakis M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Floating treatment wetlands (FTWs), have been recognized by many researchers for their efficiency in removing pollutants and thus improving wastewater quality. Despite their wide use for treating various types of wastewater, little is known about their efficiency in greywater treatment. In this...Read more
Start-up of full-scale UASB - verftical flow constructed wetland for domestic wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Malamis S., Statiris E., Seintos T., Koukoura A., Mamais D., Noutsopoulos C., Masi F., Rizzo A., Bresciani R.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
This work examined the start-up of a full-scale upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) - vertical flow constructed wetland (CW) for domestic wastewater treatment. The UASB reactors were inoculated with sludge originating from an industrial anaerobic reactor and the start-up period due to the slow...Read more
A pilot scale of constructed wetlands (CWs) was designed, constructed and operated on August 2022 at pharmaceutical factory in Jordan. This pilot is aiming to remove pharmaceuticals (i.e. antibiotics) from treated industrial wastewater generated from secondary activated sludge system. Jordanian...Read more
