| Abstract |
Overland flow has been demonstrated as a feasible method of treating municipal wastewater in most climates throughout the United States. However, optimum design criteria for year round operation in warm humid climates where primary and secondary pretreated wastewater have not been completed. Treatment performance of four overland flow plots sodded with native turf grasses were evaluated using both primary and secondary municipal wastewater in northwestern Florida. The prime objective of this study was to optimize loading of both effluents to exceed secondary wastewater discharge standards during year round operation. The project was successful and has been used as a pilot scale study for development of a number of other full scale overland flow systems in Florida. |
