“…The participation of the textile sludge (or soil) autochthonous flora on the phenol biodegradation was significant, but in much lesser extention (approximatelly 11%) than the participation of the inoculated bacterial consortium. In a previous study [36], we showed that phenolic compounds were aerobically degraded after 4 months of natural stabilization by the textile sludge-soil autochthonous flora. It must be remembered that volatilization could be contributed to the phenol disappearance in the control basins.…”

“…The resulting textile sludge has usually been disposed in landfill or incinerated with high associated costs. Modern waste management practices suggest recycling when possible (Rosa et al, 2007b). Textile biological sludge contain high amounts of organic matter, N, P, K and micronutrients and, therefore, they could be used as fertilizer in soils with poor agricultural productivity (Rosa et al, 2007a) or as soil conditioner in degraded areas Araújo et al, 2007).…”

However such sludge may also contain toxic substances such as heavy metals, dyes, other recalcitrant organic compounds, as well as abiotic and biotic transformation products that can negatively impact the soil (Hewitt & Marvin 2005;Sharma et al, 2007;Rosa et al, 2007b). Terrestrial and aquatic biota, crops and livestock could be exposed to those contaminants and adverse effects could occur.…”

Textile industries consume a large amount of water and use toxic products in its processes. Consequently, they produce and release large volumes of effluents, which, treated, generate great amount of sludge. The final disposal of this sludge remains a challenge, and its ecotoxicological assessment is an important parameter to minimize its impacts. This article reviewed the ecotoxicological tests that have been employed to evaluate the hazard of such sludge. There are few papers in the literature on this issue, as well as a lack of consensus about sample preparation procedures and test organisms to be used. The test organisms most employed are higher plants, bacteria and aquatic organisms. Only one article used earthworms and one, mammals. Composting was efficient for reduction or elimination of the phytotoxicity of textile sludge. Both Daphnia magna and Vibrio fischeri showed adequate sensitivity for sludge acute toxicity evaluation. The endpoint genotoxicity using the Salmonella/ microsome assay seems to be important, because most of the obtained results were positive. More studies are needed to understand the applicability of algae, earthworms and mammals. Efforts are being made to establish a reliable battery of bioassays for ecotoxicological evaluation of such waste.

“…In Taiwan, over 99.5% of all energy used is imported; therefore, new technologies and energies have been a focus of research. Textile sludge can be mixed with soils, wood wastes [8], industrial wastes, kitchen wastes, agricultural residues [9], or cow droppings for composting [10,11]. This sludge is used in insulating materials, fire-resistant materials for buildings, materials for making brick kilns and cement kilns, and auxiliary fuels for boilers.…”

“…It is also used in biocrude production [5] and hydrogen generation [6], and is mixed with sewage sludge to generate gas-based fuels [7]. Textile sludge can be mixed with soils, wood wastes [8], industrial wastes, kitchen wastes, agricultural residues [9], or cow droppings for composting [10,11]. Textile sludge is also used in the reuse of aluminum [12] and in the manufacture bricks, ceramic tiles, and concrete blocks by mixing with various cements [13,14].…”

This work develops an application of industrial sludge‐derived fuels (ISDF) that is based on the acceptable calorific value of pulp sludge and textile sludge. The optimal proportions of pulp sludge and textile sludge in ISDF are determined to produce the ISDF to obtain its optimal combustion efforts. Experimental results demonstrate that the calorific values of pulp sludge and textile sludge are 9.46 and 15.25 MJ kg−1, respectively, establishing the potential to be sludge‐derived fuels. Adding textile sludge increased the calorific value and flammability of ISDFs. The fibrous tissues in pulp sludge strengthened the cementing property of ISDFs. ISDFs regained 2.55–3.72% moisture after 72 h; their unit dry weight was 0.63–0.72 g cm−3; their compressive strength was 3.78–5.80 kgf cm−2; and their calorific value was 9.46–11.20 MJ kg−1. Adding 10% calcium hydroxide by weight reduced the calorific value of the ISDFs by 18.30–22.86%. The flame temperature of ISDFs in 5 min was 193.8–233.7°C. The optimal ISDF was PS70TS30. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 33: 1000–1007, 2014
