IWA 15th International Conference Wetland Systems for Water Pollution Control
1st Announcement
4-9 SEPTEMBER 2016, GDANSK, POLAND
WELCOME AND INVITATION
Treatment wetlands, in the past more frequently called constructed wetlands, have been introduced in Po-land in the late eighties of the twentieth century. During the first 10 years treatment wetland technology be-came popular in Poland due to low costs and a low demand in technology for a variety of different wastewater treatments. Unfortunately basic principles of design and operation were not been frequently obeyed because of insufficient knowledge. Therefore, most of these plants did not provide an adequate level of treatment. This resulted in a lack of confidence and trust to TWs technology as an effective method of treatment.
