Assignment about
To remove textile wastewater many precautions taken to get rid of from serious
environmental pollution. Many methods have been used such as biological, physical and
chemical treatment of dye containing wastewater. Among these biological and chemical
treatment processes are frequently used to treat textile effluents. The measures taken for
removing the textile wastewater is called textile waste water management or effluent treatment
plants (ETP). These methods are used for purifying water and remove any toxic and non-toxic
materials or chemicals from it. These methods are used by all companies for environment
protection. The treatment of effluents is essential to prevent pollution of the receiving water. The
effluent water treatment plants are installed to reduce the possibility of pollution; biodegradable
organics if left unsolved, the levels of contamination in the process of purification could damage
bacterial treatment beds and lead to pollution of controlled waters. The ETPs can be established
in the industrial sectors like Pharmaceuticals, Chemicals and Leather industry and tanneries.
DIFFERENT METHODS
Biological and Chemical methods will be discussed in this section.
The following terms are the most used in biological treatment processes:
Finally, the type of biological treatments selected whether aerobic or anaerobic depends on a
many range of factors.
pH CONTROL:
To adjust the pH in the treatment process to make wastewater pH neutral.
For acidic wastes (low pH): NaOH, N a c o3, c a c o3or C a ( OH )2

COMPRARATIVE DISCUSSION OF
FOLLOWING METHODS
The methods of choice are largely dependent upon the pollutants that need to be removed. As
mentioned above, each of these methods only removes certain pollutants efficiently, so you’re
often required to use one method or the other.
Although treatment methods can vary, in biological wastewater treatment, the standard
process includes:
On the other end, chemical wastewater treatment standard processes typically include:
Precipitation of the metals
Coagulation and flocculation; after all the larger objects settle out, various chemicals
are added to a reaction tank to remove the bulk suspended solids and other various
contaminants. This process takes out all the finer particles in the water by combining
them into heavier particles that settle out. The most widely used coagulates are
aluminum-based such as alum and polyaluminum chloride. Sometimes a slight pH
adjustment will help coagulate the particles, as well.
ion exchange, which is common for drinking water applications or any other applications
that require high-quality water (like recycling the water for use in other processes or
making steam)
Disinfection, where chemicals like chlorine remove any kind of bacteria that may be in
the wastewater that needs to be disinfected before it’s discharged
To know which method is best for a particular problem, you have to consult your water
treatment specialist to ensure the technologies your facility pursues are the right fit for your
process and needs. For example, a gold mine in remote areas that doesn’t have access to the
proper utilities might not be able to use biological treatment, and chemical may be preferred in
that case. Biological systems, in general, may require pumps and aeration or steam, which would
all use considerably more electricity than with chemistry, where you may not need as much
steam to keep things in the right balance.
CONCLUSION
The proposed methods are extremely effective in terms of removing the possibility of pollution;
biodegradable organics if left unsolved, the levels of contamination in the process of purification
could damage bacterial treatment beds and lead to pollution of controlled waters. Among
biological and chemical waste water treatment, particular place needs specific methods to get rid
of from those pollutions and contaminations. The textile industry will continue to choose and
utilize advanced innovative water treatment solutions not only to reduce their operating costs, but
to reduce their water footprint and decrease the ecological impact from their wastewater
discharge and solids sludge generation on the surrounding ecosystem. Wastewater treatment
process optimization will continue to be a key focal point for textile industry companies as the
costs of wastewater disposal and fresh water consumption continues to escalate due to issues
involving water scarcity. It must be said that the advanced oxidation processes or even the hybrid
methods may not be useful in degrading large quantum of the effluent with economic efficiency
and hence it is advisable to use these methods for reducing the toxicity of the pollutant stream to
a certain level beyond which biological oxidation can take care of the complete mineralization of
the biodegradable products.
