Fitodepurazione - Constructed Wetlands. I sistemi FWS consistono in vasche o canali dove la superficie dell'acqua è esposta all'atmosfera ed il suolo, costantemente sommerso, costituisce il supporto per le radici delle piante emergenti; anche in questi sistemi il flusso è orizzontale e l'altezza delle vasche generalmente limitata a poche decine di centimetri.

Integrated multi-trophic aquaculture. Integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) provides the by-products, including waste, from one aquatic species as inputs (fertilizers, food) for another.

Integrated multi-trophic aquaculture

Farmers combine fed aquaculture (e.g., fish, shrimp) with inorganic extractive (e.g., seaweed) and organic extractive (e.g., shellfish) aquaculture to create balanced systems for environment remediation (biomitigation), economic stability (improved output, lower cost, product diversification and risk reduction) and social acceptability (better management practices).[1] Selecting appropriate species and sizing the various populations to provide necessary ecosystem functions allows the biological and chemical processes involved to achieve a stable balance, mutually benefiting the organisms and improving ecosystem health. Ideally, the co-cultured species each yield valuable commercial "crops".[2] IMTA can synergistically increase total output, even if some of the crops yield less than they would, short-term, in a monoculture.[3] Asia[edit]
