Effects of flow speed and circulation interval on water quality and zooplankton in a pond–ditch circulation system

Abstract: A pond-ditch circulation system (PDCS) shows great promises for ecological restoration of rural contaminated water in southern China. In this study, the optimal flow speed, circulation interval, and their combination for the system were investigated for higher pollutant removal efficiency and lower costs in three separate experiments: I, II, and III, respectively. In each experiment, there are three PDCSs (S1, S2, and S3) with different water circulation speeds or circulation intervals, respectively. The resul… Show more

“…The experimental sediments and water were collected and used as we previously described (Ma et al, 2015a). Briefly, four different types of water were collected from sites A, B, C, and D, respectively; two different types of sediments were sampled from sites A and C (Figure 1A).…”

“…In order to solve this problem, many types of wastewater treatment systems have been developed and widely used, such as constructed wetland system (Childers, 2020;Torrens et al, 2021), high-rate algal ponds (Evans et al, 2005), mineralbased small-scale active filter system (Gustafsson et al, 2008), sequencing batch reactor-biofilm system (Yin et al, 2015). Recently, our group have developed a new rural wastewater treatment system, pond-ditch circulation system (PDCS), which exhibits the advantages of high efficiency, cheap, and simple management and is an appropriate alternative for rural wastewater remediation (Ma et al, 2015a;Ma et al, 2015b).…”

“…As a result, the river flowed slowly and had poor self-cleaning ability. It was difficult to dilute and diffuse sewage into the river, thus easily causing pollution [ 38 ]. S4, which was relatively far from the main line of water transmission was the site with the worst water quality and also the only site that exceeded 3.0 assessed by CWQII.…”

“…The total amount of wastewater treated in 2015 was 185,600 m 3 /day and night, distributed in WWTPs as follows: Nature Based Treatment Technology: Nature Based Treatment (NBT) technology has been used to treat wastewater for a long time. Many on-site systems, such as soil trenches, constructed wetlands, high-rate algal ponds and compound media filter beds, have been used to treat wastewater in small household communities (Matamoros & Bayona, 2013, Ma et al, 2015. All of these methods can be applied to treat decentralized sewage with different efficiencies.…”
