the textile industry has long been one of the largest of water users and nolluters and there has been little success in developing low cost treatment methods , which the industry urgently needs to lessen the pollution loads it discharges to streams. the obiective of this preparatory study was to determinen the effects o f coagulants and aid coagulant s as alum, ferrous sulfate , ferric sulfate ...

Background With the expansion of the fashion industry the quantity of industrial pre-consumer textile waste has increased. It is estimated that approximately 10-20% of textiles are wasted during garment manufacture [1]. Reusing pre-consumer textile waste within the fashion supply chain offers many environmental advantages, including: · Directing waste away from landfill and incinerators · Conse...

Dyes are one of prevalent types of chemicals used by human being today. Dyes are organic compounds which have complex aromatic molecular structure that make them toxic and harmful. When these dyes introduced with water due to textile dyeing and printing industrial waste water may cause problems to all living organism. In these dyes highly toxic metals are used as mordents so the removal of thes...

New vegetation in barren areas offers possibilities for sequestering carbon in the soil. Arid and semi-arid areas (ASAs) are candidates for new vegetation. The possibility of agriculture in ASAs is reviewed, revealing the potential for cultivation by covering the surface with a layer of organic fibres. This layer collects more water from humidity in the air than does the uncovered mineral surfa...

Textile dye industry waste is one of the most serious problems in the environment. The dye wastes are severely deleterious to surface water bodies. The present study was an attempt for the assessment of different physicochemical parameters such as pH, temperature, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Solids (TS), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), ...

textile wastewater contains substantial pollution loads in terms of chemical oxygen demand (cod), biological oxygen demand (bod), total suspended solids (tss), total dissolved solids (tds) and heavy metals. phytoremediation used for removing heavy metals and other pollutants by aquatic macrophytes treatment systems (amats) is well established environmental protective technique. a lab scale stud...

Considering both the volume and the effluent composition, the textile industry wastewater is rated as the most polluting among all industrial sectors. Important pollutants are present in textile effluents; they are mainly recalcitrant organics, colour, toxicants and inhibitory compounds (Khelifi et al., 2008). Textile industries however, have caused serious environmental problems because of the...
