Article Synopsis
- - Vertical flow-constructed wetlands (VFCWs) can effectively treat highly polluted textile wastewater, with a focus on using biochar from the plant Phragmites karka to improve their performance and sustainability.
- - The study compared three types of VFCWs: one without plants, one with P. karka, and one with P. karka and biochar, finding that the system with biochar (VFCW-BP) achieved the highest pollutant removal rates, including significant reductions in COD and color.
- - Results showed that biochar not only boosted pollutant removal efficiency within 72 hours but also improved plant growth conditions, indicating VFCWs with biochar could be a cost-effective solution for textile
