Treatment of oil sands process affected waters by constructed wetlands: Evaluation of designs and plant types

  • Treatment of oil sands process waters varied with constructed wetland design.

  • Efficiency evaluated through analytical chemistry, rates, extents, and toxicity.

  • Constructed wetlands with aquatic Sedges more effective than Cattail or Bulrush.

  • Treatment was associated with plant type and evapotranspiration.
