Abstract
The development of effective methods to treat municipal wastewater is the current challenge of sustainable water management, the problem is particularly important and common in developing countries, but also applies to developed countries (e.g., in areas with scattered housing). Constructed wetlands are a solution with a particularly high potential to fulfill this need, especially as they are characterized by simple construction, reliability, economic performance and low electricity consumption. However, a huge challenge in their dissemination is the lack of comprehensive and credible design guidelines, generally reliable sources of knowledge for decision-makers and designers. The article analyzes barriers and needs in this respect and presents an online tool, that is, the Constructed Wetland Knowledge Platform. The article also analyzes the current resources of this platform, especially their potential and usefulness for designers of wastewater treatment solutions. The analyzes carried out in the article have shown that tools of this type can provide significant support in the selection of appropriate design solutions, as well as in professional designing of constructed wet-lands. Thus, constituting a valuable tool for popularizing this solution in the world, as well as their practical application in various environmental, climatic, technical and even social conditions.
