“…In textile dyeing industries H 2 O 2 and NaOH are used as bleaching and kier agents. Higher pH approaches in wastewater owing to the wastes composition of textile mills such as NaOCl, NaOH, Na 2 SiO 3 , surfactants and sodium phosphate (Sultana et al, 2009). Excessive pH is harmful for aquatic life like fish, microorganisms and aquatic plants.…”

Some important physico-chemical properties of surface water around DEPZ industrial area, Savar were studied to evaluate the water quality. Seven water samples were collected from major waterbodies of DEPZ industrial area. The value of Physico-chemical parameter such and Cr (0.615-0.055 mg/L) were gradually decreased from point source to the remote area. Point source (W 1 ) waterbody had the highest concentration of Cr (0.615 mg/L) which exceeded the safe limit for industrial wastewater. This may be due to various chrome agent used in dyeing purposes. Anionic parameters like F -and PO 4 3-were at intolerable limit in some waterbody. The coefficient of correlation analysis among physicochemical properties indicated that all the parameters had significant contribution to pollute the water. The correlation between DO and pH was strongly negative (r=-0.995**). Fe showed positive significant correlation with Zn, Cu and Cr. There was a significant positive interaction of PO 4 3-with Cl -and NO 3-in case of water quality deterioration. The above findings showed that the surface water around DEPZ industrial area was highly polluted by the industrial activities and was harmful for life.

“…A lot of chemicals such as oil, grease, ammonia, sulfide, lead, color, hazardous pollutants, heavy metals and other toxic substances are added to the process for cleaning and dyeing purposes (Dara, 1993). The textile dyeing industries of Gazipur (Konabari) generate large amount of waste water on a regular basis which are being directly discharged into the surrounding channel, agricultural fields, irrigation channels, surface water; and these finally enter into Turag and Shitalakkhya River (Sultana et al, 2009). As a result, a considerable portion of the available water is being polluted by the textile effluents.…”

“…The presence of dyes in surface and subsurface water is making them not only aesthetically objectionable but also causes many water borne diseases, viz. mucous membrane, dermatitis, perforation of nasal septum and severe irritation of respiratory tract (Sultana et al, 2009;Islam et al, 2012a). The World Bank estimates that 17 to 20% of industrial water pollution comes from textile dyeing and treatment.…”

Rapid development of textile industry and direct deposition of the effluents into sewage networks produced disturbances in treatment processes and exert pollution loads on water bodies. The study was conducted to investigate the water quality parameters discharged from seven textile dyeing industries at Konabari in Gazipur region of Bangladesh during March to December, 2011, and also to evaluate the harmful effects of effluents on the surrounding environment. Emphasis was given on the investigation of important water quality parameters, which include temperature, pH, total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS), dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD), along with the management techniques of effluents discharged from textile dyeing industries. The study depicted that the DO values were nil or below the standard values in all industries which was very alarming for environment. The concentrations of BOD, COD, TDS and TSS were very high which indicate the presence of water pollutants. The study was focused on the pollution implications of effluents from textile industries around the study area, because of the risk of human exposure and environmental degradation by these massive discharged effluents. The water quality deteriorated in dry season than the wet season and the surface water around the studied area was highly polluted due to the industrial activities and should totally avoid for human consumption without proper treatment. It is therefore recommended that the careless discharge of the effluents should be discouraged and appropriate management system should be taken immediately to reduce the water pollution for saving the environment.

The hydrochemistry and pollution status of tannery effluent as well as the Buriganga River were studied. The water quality parameters namely temperature, pH, salinity, TDS, EC, DO, COD, Cr, Cd, Ni, Cu and Zn of tannery effluent were 22.8-31.5 o C, 7.4-10.6, 3920-6280 mg/l, 4680-7220 mg/l, 7070-10810 µs, 0.3-1.1 mg/l, 1020-3800 mg/l, 7.7656 mg/l, 0.0198 mg/l, 0.2070 mg/l, 0.0304 mg/l and 0.3021 mg/l, respectively whereas in water of the Buriganga River were 22.0-31.6 o C, 6.2-7.8, 69-642 mg/l, 97-871 mg/l, 146-1309 µs, 1.1-4.1 mg/l, 140-800 mg/l, 0.0306-0.2163 mg/l, 0.0018-0.0162 mg/l, 0.0663-0.2486 mg/l, 0.0112-0.0238 mg/l and 0.0878-0.2948 mg/l, respectively. According to the statistical analysis Salinity, EC, TDS, COD, Cr, Cd, Cu and Zn show positive correlations with each other and negative correlations with Temp. and DO. Ecological risk factor shows that Cr is the highest risk metal for ecosystem. The hydrochemistry has been revealed that the water is not safe for aquatic lives.
