Characteristics of the generalized structure of pollutant removal models for constructed wetlands
人工湿地去污模型的统一结构特征

Based on the analysis of typical existing pollutant removal models for constructed wetlands,this paper presents a generalized expression of various models in terms of differential equations.The proposed generalized expression can not only embrace most existing models as special cases but also interpret the transitions from one model to another.Potential application of the generalized expression was exemplified through the case of NH+4 and BOD5 degradation in subsurface flow constructed wetlands.It was shown that the generalized expression is helpful to reveal the pollutant removal mechanism,and thus it is good for development of more accurate models.
