Abstract: The artificial floating island discussed in this paper is made of non-woven fabric and PVC pipes. It is economical, operation-friendly, and stable. The authors analyze the strengths and defects of three different artificial floating islands with non-woven fabric, and discuss the feasibility of non-woven fabric used as artificial floating bed material and its water purification ability. Results show that the floating bed made of strip non-woven fabric is the most convenient and economical structure. If the waste non-woven fabrics can be disposed effectively in the future, artificial floating island with non-woven fabric will be used in wide areas to improve the eutrophic water quality.

Key words: non-woven fabric, artificial floating island, eutrophication, purification
