Reed beds and constructed wetland treatment systems can offer exciting alternatives to conventional wastewater treatment systems. A well established technique for domestic wastewater treatment, these systems have also, in recent years, proved their worth in treating industrial, agricultural, mine drainage, landfill and road run-off wastewaters. Written for designers and operators of Reed Bed Treatment Systems (RBTSs), WRc has, in collaboration with Severn Trent Water, produced a book and software package which will help users to: Understand the principles of RBTSs Select and design appropriate systems Maintain and assess system performance The book provides practical guidance on all aspects of RBTS design and performance, and is supported by numerous case studies and worked design examples. The accompanying software contains a comprehensive searchable database which allows access to over 800 RBTS abstracts and in excess of 10,000 performance results from over 150 UK RBTS sites. The software also contains a selection of empirical performance models which can be examined using the performance and site data.
