Abstract: By setting-up simulated mangrove wetland in a greenhouse,the behavior of total nitrogen in Avicennia marina simulated wetland system was studied.Three different concentrations of synthetic wastewater,namely C1,C5 and C10 and artificial seawater (control) of 1.5% salinity were discharged into the wetland in fixed quantity twice a week for a year.C1 had the characteristics similar to normal municipal sewage and C5 and C10 were five and ten times of nutrients and heavy metals as that in C1 respectively.The results indicated that sewage irrigation could increase the content of nitrogen in tidal water and soil.The order of nitrogen content in plant was leaf>stem>root.The circulation period of nitrogen up-taken by plants was about 5 years.The simulated wetland system had significant purifying effect on nitrogen in synthetic wastewater.
