INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUES IN TREATMENT OF TEXTILE DYE WASTEWATER

Environmental Engineering

Water pollution has been one among the key topics within the environmental issue in present days. The predominant culprit of this issue is – human kind and activities. Human aspires to meet out his needs at cost of anything. This study was made to take look at such an issue in Textile Dye Industries. Due to usage of huge amounts of many range dyes, the water gets polluted. This polluted water creates secondary problems like seepage into groundwater, leaching, harming aquatic life, imbalance in ecosystem etc. This paper observes approximately strategies for use to lessen pollutants due to fabric industries and techniques to get better the wastewater from those industries. The study has conducted tests on effluent parameters such as pH, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), BOD, COD, Nitrate, Copper and Iron of six industries in Bangalore. Recorded values for parameters with standard permissible limits are compared with standard CPCB limits; impact on environment and near proper measures to be followed is highlighted by some suggestions.
