Abstract

Phytorid technology is artificial wastewater treatment system of shallow experimental tanks, ponds or channels that are planted with locally available wetland plants. They work on natural capacity of plants to treat wastewater from different sources. In view of rising concern about pollution of water bodies due to discharge of waste in them, it is necessary to initiate alternative thinking as conventional methods through STPs (Sewage treatment Plants) have had limited success. In recent years the application of specifically designed wetland based technology which is popularly known as Phytorid technology for treatment of wastewater- municipal, urban and agricultural, is becoming widely acceptable. The technology has been found to be very effective in water pollution control as it functions as water ‘pollutant sinks’ for sediments, nutrients and metals. It treats the wastewater in natural manner without the use of chemicals. Phytorid technology is an improved wetland system for treatment of wastewater. The main objective of application of phytorid technology is to provide and boost a simple, feasible, practically sound, eco-friendly and cost effective technology for wastewater treatment and its reuse.
