Below is a range of documents and guidelines that help practitioners in the dairy and winery industries to develop best practices for managing nutrients in many wastewaters.
Focusing on a proof-of-concept for the use of giant reed (Arundo donax) in constructed wetland systems and the management of nitrogen and phosphorus within soil profiles, these guidelines outline how the risk of soil and water contamination can be mitigated and how effective giant reeds are at stripping nutrients and organic material from effluent.
