Effects of applying different carbon substrates on nutrient removal and greenhouse gas emissions by constructed wetlands treating carbon-depleted hydroponic wastewater
Abstract
The addition of external carbon sources is crucial for effective biological treatment of nutrient-rich but carbon-depleted hydroponic wastewater using constructed wetlands. In this study, we examined the effects of applying three types of carbon substrates, namely sucrose, hydroponic kale residues, and common reed litter, on the nutrient removal efficiency and greenhouse gas emission rate of vertical flow constructed wetlands. The addition of sucrose and common reed litter was shown to perform equally well in enhancing the removal of total nitrogen (84.9-93.5%), nitrate (98.3-99.8%) and phosphate (53.8-55.2%) as compared to the control. Moreover, the application of common reed litter led to significantly lower mean CH 4 and N 2 O emissions than that of kale residues. These findings suggested that Phragmites reed litter, which is easily found in wetlands worldwide, could be an effective, low-cost and climate-friendly carbon substrate to be applied in constructed wetlands for hydroponic wastewater treatment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
