Acorus calamus recycled as an additional carbon source in a microbial fuel cell-constructed wetland for enhanced nitrogen removal.

Acorus calamus was recycled as an additional carbon source in microbial fuel cell-constructed wetlands (MFC-CWs), for efficient nitrogen removal of low carbon wastewater. The pretreatment methods, adding positions, and nitrogen transformations were investigated. Results indicated that alkali-pretreatment cleaved the benzene rings in dominant released organics, producing chemical oxygen demand of 164.

A novel filter-type constructed wetland for secondary effluent treatment: Performance and its microbial mechanism.

A novel filter-type constructed wetland was constructed by combining plastic fillers and mineral fillers for secondary effluent treatment. Findings showed that TN, TP and COD removal in the constructed wetland with composite fillers (CFCW) was 3.9%, 8.

Denitrification performance, bioelectricity generation and microbial response in microbial fuel cell - constructed wetland treating carbon constraint wastewater.

For the deep reduction of nitrogen, the microbial fuel cell-constructed wetland (MFC-CW) was conducted for treating carbon constraint wastewater. Results indicated that nitrogen removal decreased from 94.96% to 24.
