The classic design of French constructed wetlands (CW) consists in two successive stages of vertical flow filters (VFFs). While this configuration permits full nitrification, it also needs a large surface area (> 2 m²/pe). Therefore high ammonium removal efficiencies are of interest for compact systems such as single stage CW.The use of zeolite as filtrating medium could fix the problem thanks to itsexchange capacity and its high affinity for ammonium. Indeed, the ammonium is adsorbed during the feeding cycle then nitrified during the rest period.This study aims to assess the feasibility of ammonium removal by zeolite in a first stage VFF fed with raw sewage. Seven columns (40 cm-depth, 107 cm²) filled with zeolite under a gravel layer and one control without zeolitewere studied over four months. All columns, except a zeolite-control, were packed with inoculated media froma treatment plant. The columns have been operated in a sequential mode of feeding and rest periods of 3.5d and 7d, respectively, with synthetic solution of ammonium (100mgNH4-N/L). Two columns were fed with different concentrations of ammonium while two others were also fed sodium in order to assess the impact of the ammonium concentration and the presence of competitive species, respectively. The nitrogen concentrations (ammonium, nitrite and nitrate) were measured at the inlet and the outlet.
