Abstract

Textile industries are major sources of Environmental pollution. Considering the problems of pollution,
an attempt has been made in the present paper to evaluate electro - coagulation treatment effect on raw
textile effluent. The purpose of this study was to investigate the treatment efficiency of the electro -
coagulation process on removal of COD, colour and solids from textile industrial effluent samples. The
study also brings out that electro -coagulation with Copper and Mild Steel electrodes were more
effective.
