AI Technical Summary
Existing wastewater treatment technologies are inadequate for efficiently removing nitrogen and microplastics simultaneously, and traditional methods suffer from low efficiency, high cost, and poor stability.
A four-layer constructed wetland system based on functional bacteria enrichment is adopted, including an aerobic layer, a facultative anaerobic layer, an anaerobic layer and a support layer. It utilizes a combination of fillers such as sludge biochar, gravel and pyrite, combined with strains of Bacillus mesenteriae and Bacillus niger to achieve the synergistic effect of physical interception, adsorption enrichment and biodegradation.
It achieves efficient removal of nitrogen and microplastics from wastewater, with stable effluent quality, improved denitrification efficiency, low cost, and suitability for complex wastewater treatment.
