About UsArm Guide ToHorizontal Flow Reed BedsHorizontal Surface FlowWith surface flow systems (also known as free water surface wetlands) the level of the effluent is held a few centimetres above the surface of the media supporting the reeds. This prevents effluents with high solids loading from blocking up the front end of the reed bed. The
solids are carried over the surface of the bed where they settle
across the full width of the system into the media where treatment is effected. Clearly these systems are good at dealing with high solids
loads. They also will remove metals as well through settlement and
adsorption. The media in these systems is usually organic or soil
based.
