Constructed Wetlands for Wastewater Treatment in Cold Climates

About this book

Focusing on the potential and use of constructed wetland ecosystems for wastewater treatment in cold climate areas, this book includes further contributions developed from papers presented at a symposium which formed part of the INTECOL '98 World Congress and at the Fourth International Conference on Managing the Wastewater Resource - Ecological Engineering for Wastewater Treatment.
