Abstract
Every industry uses water in its operations and hence produces wastewater, also called industrial effluent. Industrial effluent contains inorganic salts, heavy metals, pesticides, hazardous organic compounds, microbial contamination, and turbidity. Apart from this, industries also have their own effluents like chemical and biological agents in the wastewater. Hence, industries are a major source of water pollution. The present generation is witnessing harmful effects of such contaminants on aquatic, marine animal, and human health. Stringent quality requirements have been imposed on all the industrial plants to water pollution by effluent. The effluent treatment approach is a combination of different techniques and technologies which is used to treat wastewater so it can be released into the environment. These processes include several primary, secondary, and tertiary treatment and additional treatment steps of effluent treatment. These steps include processes such as filtration, coagulation, aerobic and anaerobic biodecomposition, active carbon adsorption, and disinfection using chemicals or ultraviolet (UV) light, etc. These steps leave a lot of industry-specific contaminants in the water. With the use of advanced technology, it is now possible to achieve minimal or zero liquid discharge (MLD/ZLD) and recovery of water and valuable resources, such as salts. In this chapter, we focused on the different procedures, applications, adaptability, and limitations of these modern techniques available to each industry in a single text. It also serves as a tool for personnel seeking information on different wastewater treatment technologies.
