Clogging in horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands: mesures, design factors and prevention strategies
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2010-11-04)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessConstructed wetlands are alternative systems to conventional wastewater treatment for small communities (up to 2000 PE). This is mainly due to that operation and maintenance costs are reduced. Despite the advantages, the ... -

Mechanical resistance properties of gravel used in subsurface flow constructed wetlands: implications for clogging
(2011-05-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyGravel constitutes the filter medium in subsurface flow constructed wetlands (SSF CWs) and its porosity and hydraulic conductivity decrease over time (clogging), limiting the lifespan of the systems. Using gravel of poor ... -
Reliability, repeatability and accuracy of the falling head method for hydraulic conductivity measurements under laboratory conditions
(2010-07-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe aim of this study was to verify under lab conditions the reliability, repeatability and accuracy of the falling head method (FHM) for hydraulic conductivity measurements. TheFHMis a reliable procedure that has slight ... -
Sludge dewatering and mineralization in two full-scale drying reed beds in Catalonia, Spain
(2008)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyOptimization of sludge management should help reducing sludge handling costs in wastewater treatment plants. Sludge drying reed beds appear as a new and alternative technology. The study have been carried out in two systems ... -
Tratamiento de lodos de depuradora con lechos de macrófitos acuáticos
(2008)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyEn el contexto del tratamiento de lodos de depuradora, los sistemas con lechos de macrófitos resultan particularmente adecuados, sobretodo en depuradoras pequeñas (<2000 hab.-eq.) que no disponen de tratamientos convencionales, ...
