Besides, an effluent polishing and buffer pond – wetland system has to be built. The study team has run the 500 m2 pilot wetland aiming to figure out optimum design parameters such as: balancing requirements of hydraulic conductivity, hydraulic headloss, filtration efficiency and plant growth. | Design of wetland system for wastewater quality improvement at Formosa Ha Tinh steel company
