(Constructed) wetlands have been used to treat
many types of stormwater runoff
Streets, parking lots: Suspended solids, heavy metals (organics, nutrients)
Roads, highways: Suspended solids, heavy metals (organics, nutrients)
Airports: organics
Golfcourses: organics (herbicides, paints), nutrients (fertilizers)
Crop fields: nutrients, suspended solids, organics (pesticides)
Greenhouses, nurseries: nutrients, herbicides

TP and TN removal versus wetland-to watershed area ratio
(Carleton et al., 2001)
Stormwater wetland survey throughout the United States
Wetland: Watershed area ratio:
usually between 0.01 and 0.04

Conclusions
Wetlands are effective in nutrient removal from stormwater
runoff but removal of nitrogen could be limited by the lack of
organic compounds in the runoff.
In the urban environment, constructed wetlands could be
used for treatment of several types of stormwater runoff,
namely from the streets, parking lots, nurseries and
greenhouses, golfcourses and airports.
For stormwater runoff treatment all types of constructed
wetlands have been used
Wetlands provide ecologically friendly solution for nutrient
removal from stormwater runoff in urban areas.
