Design of a Constructed Wetland for Grey Water

Published on by in Non Profit

Hi all,

I am designing a wetland for treatment of grey water from showers at a charcoal factory in central Namibia where 200 people shower per day.

The design loading is 10 m3 per day and using the Kickuth equation I have a surface area of about 65 m2.

I have selected a horizontal flow SSFCW wetland with an existing septic tank as preliminary treatment.

Has anyone in Southern Africa done a similar design with a cost projection for the materials required? 

Thanks in advance
