Water management is a crucial resource conservation challenge that mankind faces, and encouraging the creation of manmade wetlands with the goal of achieving long-term water management is the key to long-term urban development. To summarise and analyse the status of the research on the relationship between water management and constructed wetlands, this paper makes use of the advantages of the bibliometric visualization of CiteSpace to generate country/region maps and author-collaboration maps, and to analyse research hotspots and research dynamics by using keywords and literature co-citations based on 1248 pieces of related literature in the core collection in the Web of Science (WoS) database. The existing research shows that the research content and methods in the field of constructed-wetland and water-management research are constantly being enriched and deepened, including the research methods frequently used in constructed wetlands in water management and in the research content under concern, the functions and roles of constructed wetlands, the relevant measurement indicators of the purification impact of constructed wetlands on water bodies, and the types of water bodies treated by constructed wetlands in water management. We summarise the impact pathways of constructed wetlands on water management, as well as the impact factors of constructed wetlands under water-management objectives, by analysing the future concerns in the research field to provide references for research.

“…Also, wetlands are valuable elements of the environment and play an important role in environmental protection (Martinez-Guerra et al 2020). Due to their positive impact on the environment and mitigation of climate change effects, it is necessary to maintain wetlands as natural areas, not change them into industrial areas (which PV power plants also are).…”

This article focuses on factors limiting the development possibilities of Poland's photovoltaic and wind power plants. Technical, environmental and legal conditions were found and indicated as a result of research based on legal acts and literature on location possibilities of renewable energy installations under discussion. Also, formulas that can show limiting factors in absolute value are proposed. These formulas consider all limiting factors and allow for comparison between different regions of Poland concerning location impossibilities.

“…Removal of pollutants, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, heavy metals, pesticides, pathogens, and other organic matter, etc., is governed by single or multiple complex processes simultaneously which occur in different regions of the CWs (Ghimire et al, 2019; Martinez‐Guerra et al, 2018, 2020). The brief description of most prevalent removal processes that occur in CWs is discussed in the following sections.…”

Constructed wetland systems (CWs) are biologically and physically engineered systems to mimic the natural wetlands which can potentially treat the wastewater from the various point and nonpoint sources of pollution. The present study aims to review the various mechanisms involved in the different types of CWs for wastewater treatment and to elucidate their role in the effective functioning of the CWs. Several physical, chemical, and biological processes substantially influence the pollutant removal efficiency of CWs. Plants species Phragmites australis, Typha latifolia, and Typha angustifolia are most widely used in CWs. The rate of nitrogen (N) removal is significantly affected by emergent vegetation cover and type of CWs. Hybrid CWs (HCWS) removal efficiency for nutrients, metals, pesticides, and other pollutants is higher than a single constructed wetland. The contaminant removal efficiency of the vertical subsurface flow constructed wetlands (VSSFCW) commonly used for the treatment of domestic and municipal wastewater ranges between 31% and 99%. Biochar/zeolite addition as substrate material further enhances the wastewater treatment of CWs. Innovative components (substrate materials, plant species) and factors (design parameters, climatic conditions) sustaining the long‐term sink of the pollutants, such as nutrients and heavy metals in the CWs should be further investigated in the future. Practitioner points Constructed wetland systems (CWs) are efficient natural treatment system for on‐site contaminants removal from wastewater. Denitrification, nitrification, microbial and plant uptake, sedimentation and adsorption are crucial pollutant removal mechanisms. Phragmites australis, Typha latifolia, and Typha angustifolia are widely used emergent plants in constructed wetlands. Hydraulic retention time (HRT), water flow regimes, substrate, plant, and microbial biomass substantially affect CWs treatment performance.
