The constructed wetland systems have the advantage of removing at the same time, significant quantities of suspended solids, organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, trace elements and microorganisms contained in the effluent greatly reducing the cost of treatment. Indeed, the constructed wetland systems are characterized by an extreme simplicity of application and a low operating cost, both in terms of construction and operation, characteristics that make them adaptable also to aquaculture activities. Moreover, they have the advantage of a modest consumption of energy, ability to perform the operations in the vicinity of discharges, high system flexibility and high resistance to shock loading. In the case of aquaculture, however, another advantage is the ability to combine these systems aquaculture techniques that allow to establish a production flow towards exploitable species, thus reducing costs further management.
Goals:
(1) Evaluate the efficiency of the tank used as a basin wetland waste water coming from the fish culture; (2) To verify the presence or absence of a constructed wetland waste water activities from farming, by Ruppia cirrosa meadow present and, if so, to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment; (3) Check the status of water quality in the Stagnone Lagoon returned after the long journey made by these system (balance input-output); (4) Evaluate possible changes to be taken to improve the efficiency of abatement.
