Planning Report and Detailed Design
Most of the flows used in irrigation in Turkey are not used after irrigation. It is not possible to use the irrigation water discharged into the drainage channels due to the insufficient quality. In this project, a pilot R&D study is carried out in order to determine how the quality of water has changed by creating wetlands in the channels where the water returning from irrigation is discharged. In the project, it is aimed to clean the water by natural filtration by producing permeable walls in the artificial wetland, and also the change in quality is observed with the effect of wetland plants.
