Review: Treatment and reuse of wastewater from the textile wet‐processing industry: Review of emerging technologies

Abstract: : New ecolabels for textile products and tighter restrictions on wastewater discharges are forcing textile wet processors to reuse process water and chemicals. This challenge has prompted intensive research in new advanced treatment technologies, some of which currently making their way to full-scale installations. These comprise polishing treatments such as Ðltration, chemical oxidation and specialized Ñocculation techniques and pre-treatment steps including anaerobic digestion, Ðxed-Ðlm bioreactors, FentonÏs… Show more

SANTHANAM 3 4 330 of the water consumption and generates wastewaters distinguished by high chemical oxygen demand (COD), high dissolved and suspended solids, and high color contents (Azbar and Tonar, 2004;Chan et al, 2008). Many of the conventional and even advanced treatment technologies suffer the limitation of not being able to treat highly colored wastewaters from textile manufacturing units (Vandevivere et al, 1998). One of the main drawbacks of these treatments is their high energy costs and low efficiency in degrading the dye stuffs.…”

“…The government of this country has therefore decided not to allow any textile factory without proper effluent treatment plant (ETP), which is under implementation stage. Reactive dyes are the most problematic compared to other form of dyes (Vandevivere et al 1998;Geethakarthi and Phanikumar 2011). Removal of these dyes from wastewater is a major environmental challenge, and there is a constant need to have an effective process that can efficiently remove these dyes.…”
