Dear Anura. I can give you my expertise in wetlands. If you have enough space, you can treat the swine wastewater (i.e. once you have removed the solid fraction) with constructed wetlands. If you want to save space, you can adopt aerated constructed wetlands. You can find results from our paper in pilot systems:  Masi, F. , Rizzo, A. , Martinuzzi, N. , Wallace, S.D., Van Oirschot, D., Salazzari, P., Meers, E. and Bresciani, R. , 2017. Up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket and aerated constructed wetlands for swine wastewater treatment: a pilot study. Water Science and Technology , 76, 1, 134-146, 2017.

On the basis of these results, we have designed a full scale system for treatment of piggery waste water from 2000 pigs in Italy. The system is in the start-up phase now, we hope to have data soon to be published.

Dear Anacleto! I am intereseted also in your solution. (UASB+aerated constructed wetlands). Is your pilot study still ongoing? Can I visit the farm and Exchange more Informations with you and the other members of the pilot study? please use the following e-mail adress: dragbrin@yahoo.com Looking forward to hearing from you!
