Abstract

As a low cost alternative to traditional sewage purification, the technology of constructed wetlands has been developed in recent 20 years and many countries have paid more attention to it. The paper presents a comprehensive description of soil clogging in the operation of constructed wetlands and analyzes the factors related to soil clogging. The clogging mechanisms and model are discussed. Finally, some solutions of avoiding clogging are come up with.
