Abstract
In recent years, the depleting water resources in response to the increasing need for water along with increase in population have led researchers to search new water resources. Among these sources, the most spectacular one is the use of polluted waters after treatment. One of the alternative methods for the treatment of wastewaters is constructed wetlands. This treatment mechanism is preferred due to its effectiveness in the removal of pollution and pathogen microorganisms as well as its economic contribution. Constructed wetlands are widely used in regions with warm climates, while in cold climate conditions, low temperatures result in decreased treatment efficiency. In this study, the use of constructed wetlands in cold climate conditions has been reviewed and necessary suggestions reported. © 2017, Centenary University. All rights reserved.
