Constructed Wetland

Created at: 08 Jul 2016

Description

Tourists on the beautiful island of “Schiermonnikoog” (Netherlands) can safely swim in summertime in the natural swimming pool “de Berkenplas”, due to a constructed wetland filter, built by Global Wetlands in 2014, to keep the water clean and safe and prevent harmful algae to develop. The vertical flow CWF filters 285,000 litres of swimming water per day and has a surface of approx. 1000 m2.
