Abstract

The research work focus on a novel treatment method of a textile wastewater. The textile wastewater usually composed of contaminants including black liquor with high organic matters, chemicals from bleaching section and high TSS due to fillers and fibers. The treatment system comprised of a settling tank, filtration unit, aerobic digester, and flocculation-coagulation unit and a clean water collection tank. The main focus was given on the primary treatment in which inclined channels have been incorporated in the settling tank to enhanced the sedimentation rate of the solid particles, thus to reduce the TSS. A lab scale unit comprising a settling tank with two inclined sections has been designed to carry out experiments.
