- Abstract
The article discusses the A-01 wetland treatment system, a surface flow wetland planted with giant bulrush that is designed to remove copper and other metals from the-01 National Pollution Discharge Elimination System effluent at the Savannah River Site in Aiken, South Carolina. Metal concentrations of several metals in water were reduced through the treatment system. Metal remobilization was determined by the potentially mobile fraction and metal retention by the recalcitrant factor. Retention of contaminants was also evaluated by distribution coefficient values.
