Treatment Marshes for Runoff and Polishing represents the most comprehensive and up-date-date resource for the design, construction, and operation of marsh treatment systems.

This new edition represents a complete rewrite of the surface flow sections of previous editions of Treatment Wetlands. It is based on the performance hundreds of treatment marshes over the past 40 years. Treatment Marshes focuses on urban and agricultural runoff, river and lake water improvement, and highly treated municipal effluents.

New information from the past dozen years is used to improve data interpretation and design concepts. Topics included in this book are

Diversity of marsh vegetation

Analyses of the human use of treatment marshes

New concepts of underground processes and functions

Spectrum of marsh values spanning mitigation, restoration, enhancement, and water quality improvement

Improved methods for calculation of evapotranspiration and wetland water temperatures

Hydraulics of surface and subsurface flows in marshes

Analysis of long track records for deterministic and probabilistic behavior

Consideration of integrated microbial and vegetative contaminant removals via mass balances

Uptake and emission of gases

Performance of urban and agricultural wetlands

Design procedures for urban and agricultural wetlands

Reduction of trace metals, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, endocrine disruptors, and trace organics

Updated capital and O&M economics, and valuation of ancillary benefits

An updated list of over 1900 references

Completely revised and updated, Treatment Wetlands, Second Edition is still the most comprehensive resource available for planning, designing, and operating wetland treatment systems. It provides engineers and scientists with a complete reference source that includes: detailed information on wetland ecology, design for consistent performance, site specific studies, estimated costs, construction guidance and operational control through effective monitoring. Case histories of operational wetland treatment systems illustrate the variety of design approaches presented allowing readers to tailor them to the needs of their projects.

Completely revised and updated, Treatment Wetlands, Second Edition is still the most comprehensive resource available for the planning, design, and operation of wetland treatment systems. The book addresses the design, construction, and operation of wetlands for water pollution control. It presents the best current procedures for sizing these systems, and describing the intrinsic processes that combine to quantify performance. The Second Edition covers:New methods based on the latest researchWastewater characterization and regulatory framework analyses leading to detailed design and economicsState-of-the-art procedures for analyzing hydraulics, hydrology, substrates and wetlands biogeochemistryDefinition of performance expectations for traditional pollutants such as solids, oxygen demand, nutrients and pathogens, as well as for metals and a wide variety of individual organic and inorganic chemicalsDiscussion of methods of configuration, construction, and vegetation establishment and startup considerationsAncillary benefits of human use and wildlife habitatSpecific examples of numerous applicationsExtensive reference base of current information The book provides a complete reference that includes: detailed information on wetland ecology, design for consistent performance, construction guidance and operational control through effective monitoring. Case histories of operational wetland treatment systems illustrate the variety of design approaches presented allowing you to tailor them to the needs of your wetlands treatment projects. The sheer amount of information found in Treatment Wetlands, Second Edition makes it the resource you will turn to again and again.
