Abstract

As textile and dyeing industries increase, pollution due to effluent discharges from the same industries also increase and become of great concern to a healthy environment. In an attempt to understand the generation and treatment of textile wastewater, this chapter discusses the processes from which textiles are made, items of importance that are used in the production process which may account for the characteristics of the wastewater and persulfate, applied in the treatment of textile wastewater. Although these wastewaters are generally characterized by color, fluctuating pH, heat, salts, suspended solids (SS), the presence of metal ions, biological oxidation demand (BOD), and chemical oxygen demand (COD), color is the most obvious. The presence of color in the effluents from textile dyeing and finishing is due to the inefficient dyeing processes, resulting in unfixed forms of the dyestuff. To achieve the primary objective of obtaining a clean environment, there is a need for continuous monitoring of textile wastewater discharges, of which major concern is color.
