Potential for long-term sustainability and significant cost savings are attractive features of this eco-technology.\u003cbr\u003eDocumentation of the experience in this use of constructed wetlands has been limited. Constructed Wetlands for the Treatment of Landfill Leachates is the first compilation of the results of research from North America and Europe. Originally presented at an international symposium, this collection of papers offers the most recent research findings from the leading researchers in this new and innovative natural treatment system.\u003cbr\u003eSpecific issues addressed in the text include: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eleachate characteristics, and the potential for treatability by constructed wetlands\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003ewetland treatment, processes and transformation\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003euse of constructed wetlands in cold climatic conditions\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eassessment of the tolerance of wetland plants to the toxicity of leachates\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003erole of plants in the treatments of leachates\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eintegrated wetland systems\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eperformance of different wetland treatment systems\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003ecost comparisons of wetland technology vs. traditional treatment technologies\u003cbr\u003eThe potential for environmental contamination due to leachates from landfills is increasing, and there is an urgent need to find ways and means to treat leachates in a sustainable way Constructed Wetlands for the Treatment of Landfill Leachates will provide an invaluable source of information on the subject for scientists, engineers, practitioners, policy makers, and regulatory officials.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Mulamoottil,Edward A.
