Removal of nutrients, organics and suspended solids in vegetated agricultural drainage ditch
Original language description
Agricultural drainage is significant source of nutrients, which contributes to eutrophication of reservoirs and coastal areas. Constructed wetlands and vegetated ditches are promising techniques used for elimination of nutrients and suspended solids from agricultural drainage. While constructed wetlands have been successfully used for several decades vegetated drainage ditches have been used only recently. The current study presents the results from a two-year monitoring (2015 and 2016) of a naturally vegetated drainage ditch in the Czech Republic. The drainage ditch was 200m long with Phragmites australis, Typha latifolia and Glyceria maxima being the dominant macrophytes growing in the ditch. Removal of nitrogen averaged 1070 kg ha yr with 804 kg ha yr being removed through denitrification of nitrate nitrogen. Plant uptake was responsible for 26,3percent of the removed nitrogen. The removal of TP averaged 142 kg ha yr with plant uptake being responsible for 14 percent of the removed load.
