Products needed for constructed wetlands
Constructed wetland is a system of natural purification of domestic, agricultural and sometimes industrial wastewater, which reproduces the principle of self-purification typical of aquatic environments and wetlands.
The process takes place through the use of pretreatments, to eliminate the particulate and coarser substances, of highly purifying aquatic plants (the most used for this purpose are called macrophytes) and of a substrate to which the plants are rooted.
These materials must be placed in a duly waterproofed tank, in order to avoid percolation in groundwater.
Below there is a list of materials necessary for the creation of this reservoir.
Anti-root slab 1 mm
To protect the waterproof liners from the roots of rhizomatous plants (eg Phragmites or Typha) it is advisable to install an anti-root slab in the perimeter of the tank.
Flange 110-125 mm for inlet and outlet pipe passage
These easy-to-install flanges allow safe access inlet and outlet pipes into the tank, passing through the EPDM liner without causing leaks.
