Abstract:
A wastewater treatment plant is a facility in which a combination of various
processes (e.g., physical, chemical, and biological) are used to treat industrial
wastewater and remove pollutants. Textile wastewater usually consists of chlorides,
sulphates, dyes, bleaching agents, suspended solids, and organic & inorganic
impurities. We aspire to come up with a highly feasible solution to the major
problem that majority of the industries are encountering i.e., treatment of the
wastewater which the industry is producing. Conventionally, this process consists
of a series of membranes and chemical treatments and is an energy intensive
process. Hence, to cope up with this, we have planned on introducing a more
efficient method that uses the uprising technology of Hydrodynamic Cavitation (HC)
that minimizes the steps involved in the treatment process, thus lowering the
energy consumption, and providing a much better output. The industry assigned to
us is Kohinoor Textile Mills Ltd and we’ll be utilizing a Hydrodynamic Cavitator to
breakdown impurities and suspended solids within the wastewater on the principle
of creating high and low-pressure zones caused by variation in the orifice diameter
of the piping instrumentation. We aim to achieve a certain amount of purity of the
treated water which can either be utilized for domestic purposes or for use in
agricultural fields.
