Learning outcomes Distinguish and describe the techniques and mechanisms related to the processes of textile effluent treatment and be ableto select the most appropriate processes, monitoring of operating conditions and interpretation of results. At the end of the course Unit the student must be able to understand the ecological measurements of processes in conventional industrial technologies (Parameters used to measure and control pollution) and know the several treatmentnts and reuse of waste water pollution of textile industry:; be able to develop the ability to use knowledge as a tool of interpretation and intervention in specific situations.
Syllabus Environmental impact of the textile industry. Environmental policy and legislation. Nature of contamination and characteristics of effluents. Solid waste: treatment and recovery. Noise and gaseous pollution. Parameters used to measure and control pollution. Treatment and reuse of waste water pollution of textile industry: physicochemical processes, biological processes. Sludge treatment. Eco-labels.
