This invention provides a tidal flow
constructed wetland for treating rural domestic
sewage, comprising a concrete impermeable layer disposed at the bottom and around the perimeter of the
pool. Within the concrete impermeable layer, from bottom to top, are a uniformly distributed
water pipe layer, a first filler layer, a second filler layer, a third filler layer, and a covering layer. One end of the uniformly distributed
water pipe layer has an inlet
pipe, and the bottom of the third filler layer has an outlet
pipe. An
aeration pipe is also located within the third filler layer.
Wetland plants, preferably local dominant
wetland plant species, are planted on the covering layer. The first filler layer is a mixture of slow-release
carbon source and alkali source, the second filler layer is a mixture of
sulfur and iron, the third filler layer is a filter adsorption filler, and the covering layer is gravel filler. This invention offers advantages in treating rural domestic
sewage, including good purification effect, simultaneous
nitrogen and
phosphorus removal,
siphon self-control, low infrastructure and operating costs, and convenient maintenance.
