Industrial pollution is growing at a faster rate due to the discharge of untreated effluent in the open environment. It is a serious threat to human health and aquatic life and causes deterioration of the environment. Untreated effluent is a cognizable offence under the Pakistan Environmental Protection Act (PEPA) 1997. An experimental study has been carried out on ceramics, pulp/paper and textile/yarn effluents to assess the removal efficiency of the pollutants by the use of nuclear track membrane. The parameters such as flux, temperature, applied pressure, flow rates, density, concentration of the effluents and their interrelationships have been illustrated. Moreover, it was shown that the pollution parameters had been reduced quantitatively in post filtration effluents. |
