Dairy industry is among the most polluting of the food industries in regard to its large water consumption. Dairy is one of the major industries causing water pollution. Considering the increased milk demand, the dairy industry in India is expected to grow rapidly and have the waste generation and related environmental problems are also assumed increased importance. Poorly treated wastewater with high level of pollutants caused by poor design, operation or treatment systems creates major environmental problems when discharged to the surface land or water. Various operations in a dairy industry may include pasteurization, cream, cheese, milk powder etc. Considering the above stated implications an attempt has been made in the present project to evaluate one of the ETP for dairy waste. Samples are collected from forth points; Raw effluent [P-1], Equalization tank [P-2], Aeration tank [P-3], Oxidation ditch [P-4] to evaluate the performance of ETP. Parameters analyzed for evaluation of performance of ETP are pH, COD, BOD at 27° C, TSS. The COD, BOD at 27° C and TSS removal efficiency of ETP were 94 %, 95%, 93% respectively.
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.
