The effect of loading frequency and plants on the degradation of sulfamethoxazole and diclofenac in vertical-flow constructed wetlands
Original language description
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of loading frequency (1 pulse per day and 4 pulses per day) and vegetation (monoculture of Phalaris arundinacea Picta) on the removal and transformation of a mixture of pharmaceuticals diclofenac (DCF) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) in lab scale unsaturated vertical-flow constructed wetlands. Additionally, the system performance, the ecotoxicity of the wastewater (Microtox bioassay), and the microbial community structure and diversity in the top layer of the system were assessed. In the experiment, elevated concentrations of the pharmaceuticals (0,5 mg per L) were used to reflect the quality of wastewater from single houses or small settlements. The removal of DCF and SMX was deteriorated by the presence of Phalaris arundinacea Picta. The lower loading frequency enhanced the removal of DCF and SMX only in the planted columns, suggesting combined effect of the two factors. For the unplanted systems no significant effect of the loading frequency was obser
