Water resources are increasingly getting contaminated day by day due to the ignorance lent to the wastewater management.Most of the textile dyes or effluents are a major reason for the pollution of water resources.Although many methods are adopted to treat these textile effluents,but there is a dire need to come up with an eco-friendly,cost effective method for the removal of contaminants from ...

This review discusses cotton textile processing and methods of treating effluent in the textile industry. Several countries, including India, have introduced strict ecological standards for textile industries. With more stringent controls expected in the future, it is essential that control measures be implemented to minimize effluent problems. Industrial textile processing comprises pretreatme...

The textile industry represents a range of industries with operations and processes as diverse as its products. Textile industry effluents account for several point sources of water pollution thus posing negative effects on aquatic lives and human health. The paper contains results of a study carried out in agricultural fields of Sanganer town. This paper contains results of physico-chemical an...

A. M. K. Bahrum Prang Rocky Abstract-This study attempted to evaluate the eco-friendly bio-scouring and the conventional chemical (mainly NaOH) scouring processes of cotton & comparison between the effectiveness of both types of scouring process on cotton fibres and fabrics in the Textile industries. Less developed countries, like Bangladesh, do not set strict rules and regulations to discharge...

The presence of dyes in wastewater effluent of textile industry is well documented. In contrast, the endocrine disrupting effects of these dyes and wastewater effluent have been poorly investigated. Herein, we studied twenty-three commercial dyes, usually used in the textile industry, and extracts of blue jean textile wastewater samples were evaluated for their agonistic and antagonistic estrog...

In this study a sample of bentonite obtained from Semnan mines, was modified by a surfactant to prepare an organoclay with high surface area. BET analysis showed that the modification increased its surface significantly. The prepared sorbent was used for removal of dyes and other organic pollutants from a waste water obtained from Ekbatan textile company. Adsorption was studied in ...

Textile waste water treatment for industrial reuse remains as a complicated problem due to several reasons. Among them are: 1) Higher levels of Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) content of the waste water; 2) Non-biodegradable nature of organic dye stuffs present in the effluent. Thus, any adopted treatment system, especially with resp...

This article deals with pollution control through source reduction, as an alternative to waste treatment. Many treatment systems simply remove an undesirable process waste from one medium and capture it in another. For example, scrubbers on smokestacks remove Undesirable combustion products by dissolving them in water. Biodegradation of chemicals in wastewater produces sludges (solid wastes)....

Pollution prevention for the textile industry is reviewed, including a brief summary of present practices and an analysis of future needs and opportunities. Barriers and facilitating factors are identified. Introduction Thb US textile industry has a major impact not only on the nation’s economy but also the economic and environmental quality of life in many communities. In several states, texti...
