This paper aims in exploring the potential of the intended purposes in the newly developed dewatered aluminum-water treatment sludge (Al-WTS) based engineered wetland (EW) for wastewater treatment. Due to the low energy requirement and aesthetical appearance EW is seen as a ‘green’ wastewater treatment technique worldwide for a wide variety of wastewater treatment. The Al-WTS based EW developed at University College Dublin, Ireland, represents the latest initiative at using engineering ingenuity to further improve EWs performance. This paper summarizes the background of development and the results derived from different phases of the development of Al-WTS based EW.397235 bytesapplication/pdfenThe final publication is available at springerlink.comAlum sludge (Al-WTS)AdsorptionEngineered wetlandReuseWastewater treatmentWater treatment plant residualsConstructed wetlands--IrelandPhosphorus--Absorption and adsorptionJournal Article1222723410.1007/s12649-010-9020-zhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/1.0/
