[en] Once abundant, water has become a limited natural resource with its tremendously growing consumption. The utilization of clean water and disposal of untreated wastewater back to the water bodies has shrunk the accessibility of clean water to humans. In order to maintain the integrity of water bodies, the discharge of properly treated water is imperative. Existing centralized treatment systems are cost-intensive and, therefore, not much suitable to address growing treatment demand. The constructed wetland (CW) has emerged as a low-cost, green, robust, versatile, and simple treatment system that is economically and ecological more effective. This chapter describes the CWs as an effective alternative to the centralized traditional treatment systems, their origin, and spread, different designs and modes of operations, their treatment efficacy, reusability potential of treated effluent, innovations and integrations made to improve the treatment quality, current status and futuristic approaches needed to make it more robust treatment system. The chapter majorly focuses on the potential of CWs and their coupling with other technologies to reclaim high-quality treated water fit for various reusability purposes.
