Arden-Literature Review of Constructed Wetlands for greywater recycle and reuse

• Constructed wetlands are a low-tech, low energy water treatment alternative that show potential to adequately treat greywater for nonpotable reuse
• Despite providing the necessary physical, chemical and biological removal mechanisms for greywater contaminants, removal dynamics are complex and less predictable than more engineered systems
• Pathogen reductions provided by constructed wetlands alone are likely not reliable enough to meet regulatory standards for reuse, particularly in the US
• If combined with common disinfection technologies (chlorination, UV) constructed wetlands may be an acceptable, low energy alternative for decentralized, nonpotable reuse.
