pig farms have been developed to meet the pork demand in the market According to General Statistics Office of Vietnam (2018), the whole country has about 500,000 livestock households, over 29 million pig heads, 3.8 million tons of meat Also, as the pig producer, Vietnam is the biggest in ASEAN and the seventh biggest in the world The swine breeding industry has promoted the economic development as well as the GDP of the country Despite the huge economic benefits, pig breeding industry makes many environmental problems, which negatively affect to human health and ecosystems That is because swine wastewater normally contains high concentration of nutrients, such as phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) that are main reasons for eutrophication (Wang et al., 2013) Currently, the most common method for swine wastewater treatment is anaerobic digestion using biogas chamber However, according to several studies, the concentration of pollutants in the effluent after biogas treatment is still very high, exceeding the permitted discharge standards (National Institute of Animal Husbandry, 2015) Thus, further treatment is necessary to ensure the concentration of P in the effluent meets requirements (Ngo, 2013; Nguyen, 2016) Among several technologies utilized for swine wastewater treatment, constructed wetland has shown a promising technology Constructed wetlands (CWs) have been applied as a green technology to treat various kinds of wastewater This technology is gaining much attention of scientists in all over the world, especially in developing countries (Wu et al., 2015) That is because CWs have many advantages, such as low cost, simple operation, high removal efficiency, high biodiversity value, and great potential for water and nutrient reuse (Kadlec, 2009; Vymazal, 2007; Zhang, 2014) Ismail, Z.Z., 2012 Kinetic study for phosphate removal from water by recycled date-palm wastes as agricultural by-products Int J Environ Stud 69, 135-149 Jackson, A P., Vincent, J F V.,
