*Due to reasons outside of our control, some errors feature on the technical specifications given on the wetland which served as the basis for this study; they however don't have any impact on the experimental results presented. For instance the system built has a 0% slope inside the system; 2.5 plants minimum per m2 (square meter) with roughly 1/3 deep rooted, 1/3 medium and 1/3 light rooted (as initially planted; it doesn't mean that it is maintained that way) - about 10% of these plants can be and were chosen in this case as test plants, meaning they may not survive initial plantation and must be replaced if they die ; adapted plant species diversity can be significantly further increased.
