Assessment Item 2: Review of the Effectiveness of Constructed Wetlands for the Treatment of either Municipal Wastewater or Urban Stormwater. Maximum word length: 3,000 words ( excluding Tables and References) Critically review the published literature concerning the performance effectiveness of constructed wetlands in the treatment processes for contaminant removal eg suspended solids, BOD, nutrients, pathogens. You may choose to focus on only ONE contaminant. You must choose either wastewater effluent wetlands or stormwater treatment wetlands. You must give examples from at least 5 case studies published in the literature. You must consider the strengths and weaknesses of these engineered ecotechnologies, and briefly discuss the benefits and limitations of using constructed wetlands as a water treatment technology. Your report must be adequately referenced using the Harvard System to demonstrate knowledge of the key published literature. Failure to adequately reference the work of others can constitute plagiarism, for which severe penalties apply. See University Policy on Academic Integrity.
