Phytoremediation of Explosives-Contaminated Groundwater in Constructed Wetlands: II- Flow Through Study
Abstract
This study is a follow-up to a batch study (Study I), which was undertaken to evaluate the utility of constructed wetlands, both surface and subsurface flow, for remediating explosives contaminated groundwater. The present study, (Study II), a 30 day microcosm study was conducted for the Army Environmental Center as part of a continuing technology demonstration program Objectives of Study II included validating findings of Study I and evaluating an expanded range of experimental wetland environments in flow-through system mode with respect to their abilities to remediate contaminated groundwater containing low concentration of TNT, RDX, HMX, and TNB.
