[Method] The running parameters of the constructed wetlands were investigated for one year, and the purification effect of the constructed wetlands for treating the sewage from phosphate mine areas was analyzed. [Result] With the aid of the constructed wet- land, the average removal rates of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP) and CODcr were 52%, 32% and 54%, and the removal effects were best when the designed hydraulic load was 0.67 m3/( m2 · d). Running stably for six years, the constructed wetlands had advantages of no power, low resistance and high removal rate. [ Conclusion] The constructed wetlands reduced the load of pollutants from phosphate mine areas into Fuxian Lake effectivelv, which Dlaved important roles in the Drotection of water aualitv of Fuxian Lake.展开更多
