17、 EH NADB, 1993). A comprehensive book that builds on the NADB and hundreds of published papers to describe the performance and design of treatment wetland has been published (Kadlec and Knight, 1996). Another ongoing compilation effort is a review of wetlands treating concentrated livestock wastewat

18、ers (CH2M HILL and Payne Engineering, 1997). This has resulted in an electronic database of design and performance information known as the Livestock Wastewater Wetland Database (LWDB). An earlier effort reviewed design and operational data from wetlands receiving wastewaters from the pulp. and pape

19、r industry (CH2M HILL, 1994a). This report continues this synthesis by providing the first review of treatment wetland research and fuil- scale projects in the petroleum industry worldwide. Over the past 10 years, journal articles and symposia proceedings have indicated the petroleum industrys inter

20、est in using constructed wetlands to manage process wastewater and stomwater at a variety of installations, including refmeries, oil and gas weils, and pumping stations. These publications report that constructed wetlands provide water quality benefits when properly designed and maintained. However,

21、 published data have been scarce and unavailable for broad review within or outside of the industry. In 1995, the Biomonitoring Task Force of the American Petroleum Institute (APO funded a review and summary of available (published and company confidential) treatment wetland data from the petroleum

22、industry. The summary was intended to present the information in the much broader context of the role of wetlands for treating wastewaters from other sources. This report presents the results of this review and technology assessment. 1-1 STD.API/PETRO PUBL 4672-ENGL 3998 m 0732290 0632466 711 m TABL

The contents of the rest of the document are summarized as follows: Section 2 provides methods for estimating the water quality enhancement capability of treatment wetlands receiving petroleum industry contaminants.

40、Specific wetland sizing methods are provided for the major pollutants commonly treated in constructed wetlands. When possible, these methods are based on data from petroleum industry wetland systems. Section 3 describes the other important aspects of treatment wetland design, including site selectio

41、n, pretreatment, system sizing, hydraulic design, and vegetation selection. Section 4 describes current information important in operating treatment wetlands. It focuses on minimizing operational requirements and using monitoring to anticipate operational changes. Section 5 discusses treatment wetla

42、nd design considerations related to providing secondary benefits for wildlife enhancement and for public use. It also examines the potential for bioaccumulation of toxics and how nuisance conditions can be avoided in treatment wetlands. Section 6 provides biblographic citations for technical publica

43、tions referenced in preparing this report. The appendices, which appear at the end of this document, include a glossary of important technical terms relating to treatment wetlands and petroleum industry case histories for six pilot and four full-scale projects. Overview of Constructed Treatment Wetl

44、ands Wetlands are ecosystems in areas where water conditions are intermediate between uplands and deep-water aquatic systems. Technical and regulatory definitions of wetlands focus on wetland ecosystems dependence on shallow water conditions, which result in saturated soils, low dissolved oxygen O)

45、levels or anaerobiosis in soils, and colonization by adapted plant and animal communities (Cowardin et al., 1979; Mitsch and Gosselink, 1993). The natural ability of wetland ecosystems to improve water quality has been recognized for more than 25 years. During this period, the use of engineered wetl

46、ands has evolved from a research concept to an accepted pollution control technology. Three general types of shallow vegetated ecosystems are being used for water quality treatment: (1) free water surface (surface flow), (2) subsurface flow (vegetated submerged bed), and (3) floating aquatic piant t

47、reatment systems (Figure 1-1). AU three of these vegetate system types are used in the United States for engineered water quality improvement. EPA has prepared a design manual summarizing early performance information for all three system types PA, 1988a), as well as a subsurface flow technology ass

48、essment PA, 1993a). A technology assessment report focusing only on the free water surface treatment wetland technology is currently in preparation for EPA (CH2M HILL, in preparation). 1-4 STD-APIIPETRO PUBL 4672-ENGL I1998 W 0732290 ObL24b9 420 )ishibution Pipe Outlet Weir / w w w/ / / / / / / / /
