This allows Atlan Stormwater\u2019s engineers to place the wetland in an ideal location, before planting selected wetland species in a stable position in the water column. As these plants grow, their roots are exposed to the water which increases biofilm formation compared to constructed islands.<\/p><p>Constructed wetlands use three main removal pathways to treat nutrients. These are: attached nutrients settling out in the sediment, nutrient uptake by plants, and microbiological processes.<\/p><p>Floating wetlands enhance each of the three removal pathways. The exposed roots in the water column provide surface area for biofilm growth and increase sedimentation. The floating nature of the wetland structure also encourages strong plant growth by providing optimal growing conditions.<\/p><p>Biofilm supercharges the treatment of the water flows. When sediment in the water passes through the root mass, it is captured by the biofilm. As it gets heavier, the sediment falls off and settles to the bottom of the water body, providing better removal of TSS (Total Suspended Solids) than a constructed wetland relying on gravity and attenuation times alone.<\/p><p>Consequently, floating treatment wetlands reduce the footprint of land required to meet water quality objectives, by up to 60 per cent when compared to traditional constructed wetlands. This improves land useability for the developer, whilst providing more open water and potential increases to land value.<\/p><div>\u00a0<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e644364 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e644364\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cd8ecb4\" data-id=\"cd8ecb4\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-4d8d74b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4d8d74b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5ed9fda\" data-id=\"5ed9fda\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-75aa847 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"75aa847\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/JIW-Issue9-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-37761\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/JIW-Issue9-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/JIW-Issue9-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/JIW-Issue9-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/JIW-Issue9-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/JIW-Issue9-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-4d5c66e\" data-id=\"4d5c66e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9740ab7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9740ab7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Enjoy this article?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c6ad315 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c6ad315\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Read and share more articles from Joy in Water Issue #9.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e7fe862 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"e7fe862\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/category\/joy-in-water-issue-9\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">BROWSE ARTICLES<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exploring our partnership with Engineers Australia, we look at our co-feature article with Atlan Stormwater\u2019s Senior Environmental Scientist, Sam Kowald.
