Abstract
The release of domestic greywater from various sources can cause contamination of water bodies. In this study, a
pretreatment system and mini wetland were constructed at village dwelling for greywater treatment. The main purpose of
this study was to investigate the greywater loading characteristics, provide appropriate on site mini wetland and to
measure the effectiveness of the wetland treatment system. The greywater samples were collected from the effluent of
single house, at influent, pre-treatment model (particle material), mini wetland model (plant tube sedge Lepironia
Articulata), and control model (without plant) at two sampling period. The mini wetland model shows high removal
performance of 81.42 % BOD, 84.57 % COD, 39.83 % AN, 54.70 % SS, and 45.01 % turbidity. Generally, the results
show that the constructed mini wetland was effective to remove contaminants and suitable for treatment of greywater
sources. In view of future application, further explorations should consider other aquatic plants and disinfection system to
achieve more efficient treatment.
