Characterization of Textile Industries’ Effluents in Kaduna, Nigeria and Pollution Implications
Open accessAbstract
Effluents from five major textile industries in Kaduna (Nigeria) were characterized for a proposed central effluent treatment plant. Seven of the measured parameters exceeded the limit set by the Federal Ministry of Environment. Colour intensity exceeded it in all the samples (Mills 1 – 5) by about 350 folds on the average while COD, TSS, NH3, BOD5, and S2- were by 24, 13, 8, 7 and 3 folds respectively. TDS was detected in all samples with limit exceeded only in Mill 2. Nitrate, oil and grease were detected in Mills 1 and 2 and within the limit. Al, Mn, and Zn were detected in 80% and within the limit while Fe was detected in 60 %. Cu was detected in 80 % with limit exceeded about 3 folds on the average. The present study is focused on the pollution implications of these effluents from textile operations in the city; important because of the risk of human exposure to them.

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.
