Assessment of water pollution in different bleaching based paper manufacturing and textile dyeing industries in India

Abstract: Paper industries using different raw materials such as hard wood, bamboo, baggase, rice-straw and waste papers and bleaching chemicals like chlorine, hypochlorite, chlorine dioxide, hydrogen peroxide, sulphite and oxygen were studied to estimate organic pollution load and Adsorbable Organic Halides (AOX) per ton of production. The hard wood based paper industries generate higher Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) loads (105-182 kg t(-1)) and Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) loads (32.0-72 kg t(-1)) compared to the ag… Show more

“…Approximately 10 to 15% of the 700 000 tons of dyes produced annually worldwide are disposed of in effluents of dyeing processes (Gupta and Suhas, 2009;Hai et al, 2007;Husain, 2006;Riera-Torres et al, 2010). Textile industries typically generate 200 to 350 m 3 of wastewater per ton of finished product (Gonzálvez-Zafrilla et al, 2008;Ranganathan et al, 2007), resulting in an average pollution of 100 kg chemical oxygen demand (COD) per ton of fabric (Jekel, 1997).…”

“…For many years, this process used co-solvents, such as lowmolecular-weight alcohols, aldehydes, and organic acids. The extensive use of TPM dyes produces big wastewater volumes (200-350 m 3 ) [4,5] with loads of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of around 50 to 18,000 mg/L and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) from 110 to 5600 mg/L. Moreover, the high color index and total suspended solids have been shown to provoke negative environmental effects.…”

“…Basic dyes require additives that decrease pH. Many dyeing processes based on TPM use additives that bring the pH to very low values (2)(3)(4). Among others, acetic acid (AA) is regularly used in many industrial dyeing processes.…”
