Résumé
To improve treatment performance of the solar septic tank technology, novel constructed wetland systems have been proposed as an effective post-treatment system. This study aimed to investigate the treatment performance of the multi-soil layer based constructed wetland (MSL-CW) and comparing with the modified constructed wetland (mCW) for treating solar septic tank effluent in long-term operation. Pilot-scale MSL-CW and mCW units were operated in parallel under the same conditions during the period of 2016-2019. Removal efficiencies of TCOD, SCOD and TBOD in the MSL-CW were not significantly different (p < 0.05) from those of the mCW unit, which were 70-72%, 63-68% and 78-82%, respectively. The removal efficiencies of TSS, TKN, NH
