The treated effluent was collected from JK paper mill from its outlet. The physico-chemical characteristics of paper mill treated effluent were measured. The most of the quality parameters were found to be below the permissible limits prescribed by Indian irrigation water standard, except electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids and alkalinity. This study was conducted to investigate the...

Pulp and paper mill effluent is posing a serious threat to the water and soil components of the environment due to its brown colour and high level of toxicity. Fungal treatment is one of the efficient methods for treating pulp and paper mill effluent. In the present study, for the treatment of from pulp and paper industry, nine efficient fungal strains including Phanerochaete chrysosporium, ded...

growing the water consuming and shortage of available fresh water resources, make “effluent reuse” an unavoidable issue in industry for supplying a part of needs for required water. on the other hand, increment in the production of paper products from wood and recycling their consumed products which release pollutants to the environment has increased the environmental concerns. thus, in present...

Pulp and paper mill effluent is highly polluting and is a subject of great environmental concern. In the present research we studied the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and colour from paper mill effluent, using the coagulation process. A batch coagulation study was conducted using various coagulants such as aluminium chloride (AlCl3), polyaluminium chloride (PAC) and copper sulphate (C...

Pulp and paper mill, controversially, is one of the largest and major contributors of pollution in aquatic environment, affecting aquatic organisms in general and fishes in particular. Several field and laboratory studies were conducted worldwide on effects of both treated and untreated paper mill effluents on fish. The studies showed wide ranges of toxicity at organismal as well as at populati...
