title: [Application of subwet model in the design of constructed wetland].
abstract: The mechanism of horizontal subsurface-flow constructed wetland (HSSF CW) and its design guidelines were introduced for the design of a constructed wetland. A numerical model Subwet was proposed to aid the design of constructed wetland. The design of a horizontal subsurface-flow wetland was simulated by utilizing Subwet model. The treatment efficiency for a year round operation was obtained from the modelling. The factors which have effects on treatment efficiencies were analyzed and investigated in this study. The recommendations on optimizing and improving the HSSF CW design were provided. This case study of Subwet model demonstrated the applicability of this model in the design of constructed wetland. It can provide theoretical basis for the design of constructed wetland.
