Abstract

Abstract Textile industry wastewater (TIWW) is considered as one of the worst polluters of our precious water and soil ecologies. It causes carcinogenic, mutagenic, genotoxic, cytotoxic and allergenic threats to living organisms. TIWW contains a variety of persistent coloring pollutants (dyes), formaldehyde, phthalates, phenols, surfactants, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), pentachlorophenol and different heavy metals like lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), chromium (Cr), zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni) etc. TIWW is characterized by high dye content, high pH, chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), total organic carbon (TOC), chlorides and sulphates. Thus, requires adequate treatment before its final discharge into the water bodies to protect public health and environment. The treatment of TIWW is a major challenge as there is no particular economically feasible treatment method capable to adequately treat TIWW. Therefore, there is a need to develop a novel, cost-effective and eco-friendly technology for the effective treatment of TIWW. This review paper emphasizes on the different textile industry processes, wastewater generation, its nature and chemical composition, environmental impacts and health hazards and treatment approaches available for TIWW treatment. It also presents various analytical techniques used to detect and characterize TIWW pollutants and their metabolites, challenges, key issues and future prospectives.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
