Sažetak

Remediation of the City of Zagreb Jakuševec Dump Site, one of the largest dump sites in Europe, is in progress. Experimental laboratory results of leachate treatment using aquatic macrophytes show that increasing the concentration of ammonia in the leachate decreases elimination efficiency. In all series of experiments, significantly greater elimination of ammonia and orthophosphates has been obtained in planted than in unplanted mesocosms. For polishing the effluent from the pilot constructed wetland in the polishing pond the following species might be recommended: Phragmites australis, Myriophyllum verticilatum, Ceratophyllum demersum, Lemna minor and Salvinia natans.
