Assessment of the toxicity of waste water from a textile industry to Cyprinus carpio.
Static, short-term, acute toxicity tests were performed over a period of 96 hrs using different concentrations of influent and effluent of textile industry waste water with the objective of evaluating their acute toxicity on fresh water fish, Cyprinus carpio (common carp). The LC50 24, 48, 72 and 96 hr of influent and effluent were 25.9, 21.10, 15.66, 11.11% (v/v) and 63.18, 54.89, 48.62, 36.04...
متن کاملColour removal from textile effluents
The environmental issues associated with residual colour in textile efnuents have posed a major challenge to environmental scientists as well as the textile colouration processors. The requirements to remove colour from textile efnuent on si te prior to discharge to sewer have been progressively tightened due to increased public complaints about coloured watercourses. Dyes are highly dispersibl...
متن کاملBacterial Decolorization of Acid Yellow Dye Obtained from Textile Industry Effluents
Dyes are threat to aquatic as well as human life. These are often introduced in the water bodies from textile or paper industries with improper treatment. Chemical treatments for dye decolorization are quite costly; another disadvantage is decolorization of these dyes is not complete. The bacterial flora in the effluent of textile industries is continuously exposed to dyes. Few of this might be...
متن کاملMicrobial Bioremediation of Heavy Metals From Textile Industry Dye Effluents using Isolated Bacterial Strains
The textile industry is one of the industries that generate a high volume of waste water. Approximately 10, 000 different dyes and pigments are manufactured worldwide with a total annual market of more than 7×10 metric tones per year (Ahluwalia and Goyal, 2007). In India textile is one of the oldest establishments with nearly 1569 large cotton textiles industries, which gives employment to near...
متن کاملColor Removal from Simulated Textile Effluents Using Clean Electrocoagulation Technique
The present work was directed toward the successful ability of electerocoagulation to remove color from synthetic and simulated textile effluent by aluminum/iron electrodes. Two representative reactive dyes were selected for the synthetic dye system, a black dye alone and mixed dye (black, blue, red, 1:1:1 vol/vol). Several important operating parameters such as electrode material, initial pH(3...
