| Constructed wetlands are an innovative and inexpensive treatment approach that have the potential to treat organic and inorganic compounds in wastewater from a range of sources. EPA's Technology Innovation Office (TIO) provided a grant through the National Network for Environmental Management Studies (NNEMS) to prepare a technology assessment report on the use of constructed wetlands for applications other than municipal wastewater. This report was prepared by a first year graduate student from Washington State University during the summer of 2001. It has been reproduced to help provide federal agencies, states, consulting engineering firms, private industries, and technology developers with information on the current status of this technology. |
