Keywords:
Sawdust, pH, Color, TDS, TSS, Pollution, Textile Effluent.Abstract
Textile industry is one of the most important and rapidly developing industrial sectors. India has a large network of textile industries of varying capacity i.e. about 10,000 garment manufacturing and 2,100 bleaching and dyeing industries. The characteristics of Textile effluent are generally high because of use of many chemical substances in Textile processing. The pH of Textile effluent is generally high because of use of many alkaline substances in Textile processing. There are several methods available for removal of pH, TDS, TSS and color from Textile effluent such as ion exchange, coagulation and flocculation, biological decolorization, adsorption etc. Among all these methods adsorption is still a procedure of choice for pH, TDS, TSS and color removal. In this paper Sawdust is used as adsorbent for removal of pH, TDS, TSS & Color from textile effluent. It is found that pH is decreased from 7.9 to 7.2, the maximum percent removal of 45.50%
