Wastewater Characteristics in Textile Finishing Mills

Abstract

The aim of this paper was to accurately analyze the sources of water pollution and loading concentrations in textile finishing mills. A process data collection was performed and integrated with a characterization of the process effluents in terms of treatability and reusability. In order to evaluate properly the wastewater loading, an analysis course was set. The samples have been gathered for two months; instantaneous samples (PI) were drawn from the wastewater, as well as from the painting baths, at the time of the overflow. Based on several daily average values, a general average (PG) has obtained. The experimental data were statistically analyzed and the average values of the investigated parameters for each collecting point corresponding to the sectors of the finishing section were assessed..

Effluent treatment in denim and jeans manufacture

“…The regulatory limits imposed by important denim producing countries for effluent discharge from denim production plants are shown in Table 19.3 (General Standards for Discharge of Environmental Pollutants; Global Effluent Guidelines; Su kiṙliliği̇ kontrolü yönetmeliği; Discharge Standards of Water Pollutants; Haque;Malik, 2002;Savin and Butnaru, 2008). Levi Strauss & Co. has also set global effluent regulations, which mandate strict wastewater discharge limits for its supply chain contractors to ensure specific sustainability.…”

Municipal Wastewater Recycling In Cotton Textile Wet Processing A Review

“…A program of maintenance, inspection, and evaluation of production practices should be established. Significant reductions in water use can be made by implementing the following: minimizing leaks and spills, maintaining production equipment properly, identifying unnecessary washing of both fabric and equipment, training employees on the importance of water conservation (Savin and Butnaru, 2008).…”

Industrial Wastewater Treatment: A Challenging Task in the Industrial Waste Management

“…Two different trends are so evident among the reported studies that link the membrane separation and other technologies. Some studies focused on the reduction of the membrane concentrated disposal problem, while others concentrated on the full-hybrid systems, which might eliminate the limitations of the membrane technology, and/or that of the counterpart technologies [130,131].…”
