  • We investigated the seasonal dynamics of removal pollutants in constructed wetlands.

  • We compared the use of different substrates in constructed wetlands with Typha spp.

  • Substrates and seasonal dynamic did not cause a significant effect on removal pollutants.

  • Porous river rocks and tepezyl were suitable substrates for constructed wetlands.

  • Constructed wetlands planted favored the removal pollutants.
