Integrated greening device and method for recycling wastewater
The present invention discloses a small integrated greening device and method for recycling wastewater, including a wastewater collection system, a microorganism and plant purification system, and a reclaimed water collection and distribution system. The method includes the following process: greywater or wastewater is collected through a pipeline and enters a water collection tank of a wastewater collection part. Lifting is performed by submersible sewage pumps, such that the lifted water enters a microorganism and plant synergistic purification and greening part. Each submersible pump is controlled by one corresponding automatic water level controller to transport the treated water to the reclaimed water-use sites. The device and method provided by the present invention utilize the physical and chemical action of a filler and the synergistic purification effect of microorganisms and plants to purify the greywater, and the purified reclaimed water is used for flushing toilets, watering trees or other purposes.
Method for changing filler pollutant accumulation of constructed wetland
A method for changing filler pollutant accumulation of a constructed wetland belongs to the field of environmental protection engineering. A coupling device of a microbial fuel cell and a constructed wetland is constructed by using active carbon as a constructed wetland filler, and pond sewage enters into the constructed wetland from the top of the device in an intermittent mode. A titanium mesh is taken as an electron collector for packaging a cathode of the active carbon filler by using the characteristic that electrons are collected by the titanium mesh in a concentrated mode, after stable operation for a period of time, active carbon close to a water surface and active carbon close to the bottom of the titanium mesh are taken out for carrying out specific surface area and biomass measurement, and the accumulation distribution condition of filler pollutants inside the constructed wetland is analyzed.
OPTIMALLY-CONTROLLED HYBRID PHYTOREMEDIATION SYSTEM
A method for treating chemicals below ground is provided. The system includes contacting the chemicals with a rhizosphere to maximize transpiration rate and minimize over-saturation of the rhizosphere. Also provided is a method for using contaminated groundwater as a sole source of irrigation. The method uses extracting the contaminated water and pumping the extracted water to an irrigation zone under the control of an autonomous irrigation system. Each zone includes some trees and the root system for each tree is modified to function as a treatment cell. The invention also provides a system for treating contaminated water, using a contaminated water source situated below ground surface. The system uses a pump for extracting contaminated water from the water source and prevents the contaminated water from directly contacting the atmosphere above the ground surface. Vegetation which defines an underground rhizosphere is adapted to directly receive the water.

Two-Sided Horizontal Flow Bioretention Stormwater System
The embodiments of the present technology relate in general to an improved bioretention system for stormwater treatment through volume control and various filtration processes in a horizontal flow media bed. In particular, the disclosed bioretention system transfers water through the media bed horizontally and notably has two sided void area for influent runoff to pond and build up adjacent to the media bed where water is pre-treated, sediments settle on the floor area and water flows into the media bed via its vertical surface.

RECYCLING SYSTEM FOR TREATMING SEWAGE OF ECOLOGICAL FARM
Disclosed is a recycling system for treating sewage of an ecological farm, including an external water source, a living area producing domestic sewage, a culture area producing breeding sewage and a farmland area producing agricultural drainage. The external water source feeds water to an ecological river, a water-saving irrigation system of the farmland area, the living area and the culture area through a water-diversion system. A first channel configured to discharge the domestic sewage from the living area is communicated with the water-saving irrigation system through a domestic sewage treatment system. A second channel configured to discharge the breeding sewage from the culture area is communicated with the water-saving irrigation system through a breeding sewage treatment system.

BIOLOGICAL REMEDIATION OF GROUNDWATER USING AN ALGAL PHOTOBIOREACTOR SYSTEM
A method and system for reducing the concentration of nitrogen-bound nitrate from at least one of groundwater, surface water, or waste water is disclosed. The system includes an algal photobioreactor system. The photobioreactor includes a transparent tubular structure, a medium disposed inside the transparent tubular structure, and alga configured to adhere to the medium. The photobioreactor further includes a pump, and a light source. The method includes providing contaminant-containing water, adding the water to the algal photobioreactor system, adjusting at least one of temperature, ion concentration, CO.sub.2 concentration, pH, light wavelength, ion concentration or light intensity in the algal photobioreactor system to enhance growth of algae, removing water from the algal photobioreactor system, and harvesting the algal biomass. A system and method are also disclosed for reducing the concentration of organophosphates from water via an organophosphate-removing alga.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF PRODUCING COMPOSITIONS FROM THE NUTRIENTS RECOVERED FROM WASTE STREAMS
According to present disclosure, there is disclosed an algae growth and cultivation system that provides a cost-efficient means of producing algae biomass as feedstock for algae-based products, such as, fertilizer, feed, biofuel manufacture, and desirably impacts, nutrient recovery from waste streams for valued byproducts production, recycle water, and alternative/renewable energy production. The system as discussed herein is an integrated systems approach to wastewater treatment, algal strains selection for byproducts production, and recycle of algal biomass-processing waste or additional algae harvested as feedstock for products such as fertilizer production. Embodiments of a system as discussed herein present an economically viable algae production system and process that allows algae-derived products such as fertilizer, feed, biofuels, etc. to compete with non-organic or petroleum products in the marketplace.
