We worked out a method in Maple environment to help understand the difficult transport processes in horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands filled with coarse gravel (HSFCW-C). With this process, the measured tracer results of the inner points of a HSFCW-C can be fitted more accurately than with the conventionally used distribution functions (Gaussian, Lognormal, Fick (Inverse Gaussian) and Gamma). This research outcome only applies for planted HSFCW-Cs. The outcome of the analysis shows that conventional solutions completely stirred series tank reactor (CSTR) model and convection-dispersion transport (CDT) model do not describe the internal transport processes with sufficient accuracy. This study may help us develop better process descriptions of very complex transport processes in HSFCW-Cs. Our results also revealed that the tracer response curves of planted HSFCW-C conservative inner points can be fitted well with Frechet distribution only if the response curve has one peak.
