International audience | In rural areas, nitrate concentrations in surface waters most often originate from the leaching of excess N fertilizer in agricultural lands, whereas forested catchments often have good water quality. However, Douglas-fir plantations may induce nitrogen cycle unbalances which may lead to an excess of nitrate production in the soil. We hypothesize that the excess of production of nitrate in the soil and nitrate leaching to streamwater is greater in catchments planted with Douglas fir. We used paired catchments in both France and Luxembourg with different land covers (Douglas-fir, Spruce, Deciduous, Grassland and clearcut) which were monitored over a 3-5 year period in order to assess the effect of Douglas-fir plantations on the chemical composition of surface water. Nitrate concentration in the soil and groundwater were also monitored. The results show that nitrate concentrations in streams draining Douglas-fir catchments were two to ten times higher than in streams draining other land covers, but were similar to the clearcut catchment. Nitrate concentrations under Douglas-fir in groundwater (up to 50 mg L-1) and in the soil were also higher than under all other land covers. Soil nitrate concentration was related to stream nitrate concentration. This suggests that soil processes, through excessive nitrate production under Douglas-fir, are driving the nitrate concentration in the stream water and our hypothesis of a transfer of a fairly large proportion of this excessive production from the soil to the stream is supported. This study also shows that nitrate concentrations in surface and ground waters in rural areas could also originate from Douglas fir forested catchments. The impact of Douglas-fir is nevertheless reduced downstream through a dilution effect: mixing tree species at the catchment scale could thus be a solution to mitigate the effect of Douglas-fir on nitrate concentration in surface waters.

Conçus initialement pour le traitement des eaux usées domestiques, les filtres plantés de roseaux ont été adaptés pour le traitement des effluents de lavage de salles de traite pour fournir une alternative au stockage et épandage. Pour simplifier les système en vue de réduire les coûts d'investissement, plusieurs sites expérimentaux ont été construits, modifiés si nécessaire et suivis. Placé à la suite d'une fosse toutes eaux de 3 à 9 m3, la configuration la plus aboutie consiste en 2 étages des filtres plantés à flux verticaux chacun étant composé de 2 filtres alimentés en alternance chaque semaine. La surface totale active correspond à 0.25m2 par vache laitière pour les eaux blanches seules (machine à traire et tank à lait) et 0.4m2 par vache lorsque s'y ajoutent les eaux vertes de lavage des quais et murs de la salle de traite. Les filtres du 1er étage occupent 65% de la surface totale. Observées dans 3 exploitations agricoles laitières, les concentrations obtenues atteignent une fourchette de 50 à 180 mg/L en DCO, 5 à 75 mg/L en DBO5 et 10 à 60 mg/L en MES. La nitrification qui est considérée comme un bon indicateur du potentiel d'oxydo-réduction dans le réacteur n'est certes pas complète mais beaucoup plus élevée que dans le cas de filtres à sable étudiés pour le même objectif alors que plusieurs d'entre eux ont colmaté. / Initially designed for the treatment of domestic wastewater, Vertical Flow Reed Bed Filters [VFRBF] have been adapted for washing parlour effluents to study the feasibility of the treatment of such effluents instead of their storage and land spreading. It was necessary to adapt the design of VFRBF to minimise the investment costs. Several experimental sites have been built, monitored and progressively adapted. Following a septic tank of 3 to 9 m3, the best design was considered to be: 2 stages of VFRBF in series each composed of 2 filters which are alternately fed on a weekly rhythm. The total active area is approximately equivalent to 0.25 m2 per milking cow for the washing effluent of the milking machine and milk-storage tank and 0.4 m2 per milking cow when the washing effluents from the floor and walls of the milking parlour are added to the previous ones. The 1st stage filters takes up 65 % of the total area. Based on a survey done in 3 farms, the concentrations achieved a range of 50 to 180 mgL-1 in COD, 5 to 75 mgL-1 in BOD5, 10 to 60 mgL-1 in SS. The nitrification, which can be considered as a good indicator of the redox potential within the filter media, was not complete but much more effective than in sand filters studied for the same purpose but some of them have clogged.

To improve total nitrogen removal, a full-scale experimental study was conducted on a hybrid constructed wetlands plant designed for 100 p.e.. The plant composed of a 1st stage of vertical filters (fed with raw wastewater) followed by a 2nd stage of horizontal filters was monitored over one year measuring hydraulic conditions, physico-chemical conditions, gas emission, oxygen of the gas phase and regular treatment performances by 24 h composite samples. Different vertical filter configurations (media depth, intermediate and passive aeration system) were tested as well as two horizontal filter designs. The N removal is discussed on efficiency of each stage in relation to the season and the load applied. This study leads to draw the limit of the plant configuration and gives some design avenues of hybrid systems to reach high and regular level of nitrogen removal with acceptable surface area per person.
