CREATED
WETLAND FOR WASTEWATER TREATMENT
Canadian Shield
Consultants use the Aqua created
wetland technology for effective
and efficient wastewater
treatment. The Aqua technology
has been refined to enhance
overall treatment performance and
to address traditional problems
in colder climates when
biological treatment activity
slows.
Constructed and
natural wetlands can be used to
clean polluted waters through
various physical, chemical and
biological processes. These
wetlands can remove nutrients,
metals and other problematic
substances from wastewater prior
to discharge into the natural
environment. With an Aqua
wetland, wastewater is discharged
into a vertical flow treatment
system, flowing freely through
the system at a slow pace that
allows the wetland plants to
cleanse the wastewater.
APPLICATIONS
food,
brewery and winery
processing waste
greenhouse,
specialty crop discharge
and runoff
aquaculture
discharge
stormwater
runoff
golf
course
sanitary
sewage
livestock
wastewater
aggregate
and mining washwater and
runoff
landfill
leachate
BENEFITS
technology
is reliable, proven, and
supported by many years
of performance monitoring
it has
recieved government
approval for installation
and operation at many
locations
requires
very little energy to
operate
insects,
ordour and other nuisance
problems are not a factor
as there is no standing
water
the
system operates
year-round
the
smaller footprint
required by the system
reduces land costs
