Drying bed installation & construction
✔ A drying bed, in the context of a reedbed system, is designed to facilitate the dewatering and drying of treated wastewater or sludge.
✔ The drying bed is a specific area within the reedbed system where the treated wastewater or sludge undergoes further drying processes.
✔ They help separate water from the solid components of the treated wastewater or sludge, promoting dewatering.
✔ Remaining contaminants are further reduced as the water continues to interact with the root zone and the bed's surface. The drying process, which results from exposure to sunlight and natural drying conditions, contributes to the reduction of pathogens.
