Polluted river is a primary problem occurred in Changhua County, Taiwan because of rapid and massive developments of agriculture and industry. Water sample belongs to the water exhausted from influent of Yangzi-Cuo river, ci-tong jiao, Changhua County, and ecology technologies, which combined with gravel contact oxidation and surface flow constructed wetlands, are employed to enhance the water quality. Ecology technology is a useful and ordinary process which focuses on original treatment of pollution through chemical, physical, and biological procedures based on the mediums of soil, plant, water, and microorganism from pure environment. Moreover, this study aims on minimizing river pollution index (RPI) of Yangzi-Cuo river by using combinations of gravel contact oxidation and surface flow constructed wetlands. The inflow volume of water sample in suit is measured as 1,534-2,261 cubic meters per day (CMD). The major pollution in water sample involves of suspended solid (SS), ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N), total phosphorus (TP), total nitrogen (TN), and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and the values of above indexes is ranged as 10.0-26.7 mg/L, 0.9-14.0 mg/L, 1.2-14.1 mg/L, 11.1-18.2 mg/L, and 0.5-3.6 mg/L, respectively. Efficiencies of pollution elimination on SS, NH3-N, TP, TN, and BOD were depicted as 24.2-93.1%, 58.3-86.2%, 5.2-85.0%, 59.4-77.2%, and 46.3-76.4%, correspondingly, after purification treatment of ecology technology. As the result, ecology technology is benefit for the purification treatment of polluted river.

GIS-based approach to find the suitable sites for surface flow constructed wetlands was employed for the Lithuanian river basins with low ecological status. According to the nature of the analysed criteria the flowchart consists of two phases. Criteria used include hydrographical network, soil properties, terrain features, land use, etc. Some of them have strictly defined values (constraints), and other ranges within certain limits (factors). Limited criteria were analysed using rejection principle and influencing factors using proximity analysis and overlay methods. Selecting the potential sites using standard GIS analysis tools there was estimated about 3286 sites for possible wetlands with the mean area of inflow basin about 4 km2 in the basins of water bodies at risk.
