This study investigated the removal mechanisms of arsenic and heavy metals in constructed wetland systems. The biotic and abiotic processes in the wetlands and the influences of plants, soil and micro-organisms on arsenic and heavy metal removal were examined. Various small-scale constructed wetlands were set up in order to study and compare the removal efficiency of laboratory-scale wetland models and small-scale field test systems. In the field test systems, acid mine drainage (AMD) was used as an example of acidic wastewater contaminated with heavy metals.
