The textile and tannery industry in Bangladesh is liable for polluting the soil and water body owing to the discharge of untreated effluents. They use enormous amounts of water, chemicals, and colorants for processing textile and leather products and release a complex mixture of organic and inorganic pollutants and metal contents, which negatively impact the environment. The main objective of this research was to study the deleterious impact of untreated textile and leather effluents on the environment in Bangladesh. For this purpose, textile and leather effluents were collected from industries during discharging after processing. Parameters, such as BOD, COD, pH, TDS, TSS, TH, Turbidity, conductivity, alkalinity, Dissolved Fe, metal contents, etc., were tested to determine the characteristics of the effluents. Moreover, the impact of these effluents on tree plants as well as on fishes was observed over 24 days. The results showed that the effluents contain extremely high values of BOD, COD, TDS, TSS, hardness, conductivity, alkalinity, silica from the recommended discharge limit. It was also observed that leather effluents cause a more harmful effect on the survival of fishes and trees due to the presence of high metal contents than textile effluents. The findings will help address this alarming situation in the ecosystem of Bangladesh and recommend immediate action to save the ecosystem from untreated discharges of industrial effluents.
This project work aimed to investigate the interactive effects of carded roving parameters (i.e., roving hank and twist) and break draft of ring frame on the quality of compact yarn such as evenness, strength and hairiness. However, in this work, compact spun yarns produced from carded roving hanks of 0.70Ne and 0.90Ne while the roving twist per meter inserted at two levels (i.e., 40 and 45) for each of hank. Moreover, the break draft values of ring frame kept at three levels (i.e., 1.15, 1.25 and 1.35) for each type of roving. However, 100% cotton compact yarns of 24Ne and 32Ne produced for this experimental investigation. However, results showed that yarn unevenness (U%) and imperfection index (IPI) values of compact yarn decreased for the finer roving hank (0.90Ne) irrespective of yarn fineness. It was also noticed that low twisted roving improved yarn evenness during coarser yarn (i.e., 24Ne) production. Regarding the count strength product (CSP) value, increasing levels of roving twist deteriorated the CSP results in general. Trend of CSP results also revealed that finer roving produced higher levels of CSP results for comparatively finer yarn production. As far as yarn hairiness is concerned, it was observed that finer roving (0.90Ne) having higher levels of twist reduced yarn hairiness irrespective of yarn fineness without any exception. Finally, it can be said that this study will help the researchers for comprehending the influences of the process parameters during the production of compact yarn from carded roving.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
