abstract = {The potential of two plant species, Phragmites australis
(common reed) and Typha latifolia (cattail), in the
phytoremediation process of selenium (Se) was studied in
subsurface-flow constructed wetland (SSF). Se was
supplemented continuously at a concentration of 100 microg
Se L(-1) in the inlet of the cultivation beds of the SSF.
Water samples collected from the outlet of the Phragmites
bed after 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 wk of treatments showed that Se
content was under detectable limits. Water samples collected
from the Typha bed at the same five periods showed that Se
concentrations in the outlet were 55, 47, 65, 76, and 25
microg/L, respectively. The results of bioaccumulation in
the biomass of both species after 12 wk of treatment
indicated that Typha plants accumulated Se mainly in fine
roots. Phragmites accumulated Se mainly in leaves and
rhizomes, and moderate levels were found in stems and fine
organic materials. The results indicate that common reed is
a very good species for Se phytoextraction and
phytostabilization (immobilization) and that cattail is only
a phytostabilization species. The use of common reed and
cattail for Se phytoremediation in a SSF system and in
constructed wetland models are discussed.},
