Figure 13 Theoretically this scale of pollution could be treated in 10-50 years; 10 years would require a double amount of land to simultaneously treat all dredge within this time frame, and the high speed would only suit fast growing vegetation species. 50 years requires only 200 ha., but is too long of a time scale for such a dynamic and rapidly urbanizing area as it may cause problems with long-term implementation. The designers have therefore set the time/area coefficient to 20 years/350 ha. Figure 14 Dredge Landscape Park, a combination of an impelling infrastructural framework, morphogenesis and naturally emerging vegetation patterns.
