Abstract

During the last decade, Bhilwara has developed into a leading place in the textile industry in the country. Bhilwara is the hub of textile industries in the state of Rajasthan and known as “Textile City”. Textile industry is one of the most water and chemical intensive industries worldwide. About 200–400 l of water is needed to produce 1 kg of textile fabric in textile factories. Textile industry involves processing or conversion of raw material/fabric into finished cloth involving various processes/operations and consumes large quantities of water and produces extremely polluted waste effluents. Textile effluent contains both inorganic and organic substances in dissolved, colloidal or suspended forms and is typically coloured due to the presence of residual dyestuffs. Hence various physical, chemical and biological methods are used for the treatment of textile wastewater depending upon its characteristics. For this study, textile waste water was bleached by the use of Fenton reagent (H2O2/Fe2+) with
photochemical reactor in UV light.
