Approaches for Treatment of Textile Waste Water

  • Anil Kumar Singh

Abstract

In addition to other minor problems, such as solid waste and material waste management, waste water is a significant environmental barrier to implementation of the textile industry. As the absorption of these dyes by fabrics is very low, the textile industry utilizes several types of synthetic dyes and discharges vast volumes of heavily coloured waste water. This strongly coloured textile waste water greatly affects the plant's photosynthetic activity. Owing to poor light penetration and oxygen intake, it also has an effect on marine life. Because of the presence of component metals and chlorine found in synthetic dyes, it can also be harmful to some species of marine life.So, before they are drained, this cloth waste water must be processed. The methods of treatment mentioned in this article include method of oxidation, physical method and biological methods. This review article would also propose practicable remedial action for the treatment of the various forms of effluent created by the textile process.
