Abstract
Constructed wetlands are sustainable wastewater treatment technology and have been used to treat a variety of wastewaters for decades, including domestic and industrial wastewaters. They take advantage of many of the same processes that occur in natural wetlands but do so in a more controlled or engineered system. To date, surface flow and subsurface flow wetlands are the two main categories of constructed wetland applications. On the other hand, peat soil is the decomposed organic matter that have built up over thousands of years, with high moisture content. Peat soil management is imperative to maintain the mire ecosystem. The use of rhizosphere biodegradation, phyto-stabilization and phyto-accumulation have shown the possibility of improving water quality of wetland associated with peat soil. Thus, the aim of this work is to present a review in the role of constructed wetland system for peat soil management and the water quality as restoration measures of the peat soil ecosystem to promote its suitability for agricultural purpose.
