SILVA-PADILLA, Carla Fernanda et al. The impact of vegetation filters on the emission greenhouse emissions. cultrop [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.4  Epub 01-Dic-2020. ISSN 1819-4087.

The present investigation began its study wondering in what way the implementation of green filters influences the quality of wastewater, where the main objective is to study the impact of green filters as an unconventional strategy for wastewater treatment. All this in relation to the release of greenhouse gases, analyzing their emission or retention during the purification process; in addition to demonstrating that it is an appropriate technology for small communities. However, during the purification process, greenhouse gases (GHGs) can be generated as anaerobic degradation of organic matter takes place, which can be emitted into the atmosphere and thus contribute to global warming. The species commonly used in the purification process are willow (Salix spp.) Poplar (Populus spp.) and eucalyptus (Eucalyptus spp.), since they have a high purification capacity, assimilation of nutrients and rapid growth. This is how agroforestry systems have great potential for carbon sequestration due to their greater capacity to capture and use growth resources, considering them as a mitigation measure to reduce GHG emissions.
