Background
• Agriculture is the largest anthropogenic source of nutrients (N and P) enhancing eutrophication of the Baltic Sea
• Constructed wetlands are recognized as a powerful tool to retain nutrients that have leached from arable land.
• Nutrients that are bond to soil particles are reduced by sedimentation in wetlands
• Large and thus efficient wetlands are still rare due to their high investment costs
• Nitrogen components can be reduced by denitrification and assimilation by plants
• Dissolved P however is retained poorly, if at all• The efficiency of small wetlands could be increased?
– idea by WWF Finland (wetland projects)Algae blooms in the Baltic Sea. Summer 2008 (www.ymparisto.fi)

Project goals
• Project aims to work out and promote methods and techniques to enhance nutrient retention in wetlands (hereby entitled "active wetlands“)
• Model biological and economical efficiency of wetlands
• Increase awareness of the importance of wetlands in decreasing the nutrient load from agriculture.

WP3:
• Watershed models of different complexity will be used to assess the wetland effects on a wider scale
• Economical calculations and modelling are performed in order to assess to costs of wetland construction and maintenance compared to the benefits in nutrient retention
WP4:
• Communication and awareness of wetlands is enhanced
• Co-operative transnational development of wetland restoration, conservation and construction is enhanced between Finland and Estonia

TUAS and Active wetlands
TUAS is primary engaged to implementation of WP2 in Finland in co-operation with MTT
TUAS is responsible for:
Building up of 1-2 test sites with chemical phosphorus removal systems (autumn 2010)
• Creating and maintaining online monitoring systems for test sites (autumn 2010)
• Planning and executing of manual water sampling plan (autumn 2010– autumn 2012)
• Collect objective data on feasibility of the measures (autumn 2010 )

About possible active methods
2 different kind of methods based on chemical phosphorus precipitation have been applied
a). Solid ferric sulphate doser (Ferix-3)• Ferric sulphate is dosed to stream relative to magnitude
of water flow (Ferix-3 to water in ratio 1:30 000)
b). Ferric hydroxide granule buffer (Sachtofer PR)• Granules origin is in pigment industry • Consist of calcium sulphate and iron compounds• Water flow is directed slowly through granule buffer

Usage of chemicals
• The chemical precipitation of phosphorus by ferrous and aluminium sulphates has been used in waste water treatment plants already decades ago
• Chemicals are inexpensive and in wide use
• Chemicals are effective way to bind both dissolved and particulate phosphorus into insoluble sludge

Preliminary experiences
www.turkuamk.fi
• It is too early say how the tested methods work in the different situations and in long run.
• However, both methods have shown promising results (the reduction of soluble P)
• Also some development of the methods have already been done.
