Abstract


The current study explored the adeptness of SBR technology in treating wastewater from textile industry which is considered as a high toxic wastewater. Many studies are going on throughout the world in studying the effectiveness of SBR with different media. In this study we are using geonet and plastic cap as a combined media for the attached growth of the bacteria. The SBR reduced the COD from the textile wastewater by 55%. In this study, the capabilities of SBR technology in treating relatively higher concentration of inorganic impurities present in the textile wastewater are studied and discussed.
