Abstract: Ozonation was tested on selected streams of cotton finishing textile plant wastewater for
optimizing chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal. For this purpose, significant COD fractions in
the wastewater were experimentally identified and the effect of ozone on these fractions was
investigated. Ozonation experiments were performed with a 1 dm3 sample volume. Ozone treatment of
batches of raw wastewater provided, at a rate of 62 mg min1 and a gas feeding time of 15 min, achieved
complete colour removal but only 21% COD reduction. Increasing the feeding time to 30 min slightly
increased the COD removal to 32%. At this feeding time, removal of the readily biodegradable COD
was 60%, but soluble inert COD reduction remained at 16%, indicating selective preference of ozone
for simpler compounds. At low concentrations, ozone was mainly influential on soluble COD compounds. Longer feeding times also affected particulate compounds, resulting in the solubilization of
the COD fractions. Pre-ozonation of the dye-house wastewater, as a segregated stream, proved much
more effective in the breakdown of refractory organic compounds, rendering the overall plant effluent
more amenable to biological treatment.

1 INTRODUCTION
and organic residues with a significant non-biodegradable fraction, persisting through chemical precipitation and biological treatment.3,4 In fact, chemical
precipitation, although effective for the removal of
colour due to dyes with limited solubility, such as
disperse dyes, remains relatively inefficient for soluble
dyes.5 Regardless of the removal efficiency potential
provided, sludge generation, which requires additional
and costly handling and disposal, is a major drawback
for chemical treatment.5,6 Biological treatment inherently increases the non-biodegradable organic matter,
initially present in the wastewater, through the
generation of soluble residual microbial products.7
Chemical oxidation with ozone, however, is one of the
most suitable chemical oxidation processes for effective colour removal from textile effluents, with
simultaneous interaction and breakdown of refractory
organic matter resistant to biodegradation, without
leading to sludge production.6,8
Ozonation, despite its distinct technical advantages,
may prove costly when applied to the entire wastewater volume. Cotton finishing, however, like other
major textile operations, involves a sequence of welldefined batch operations in terms of chemicals used
Experimental approach
Four processes among a total of 20 were selected for
experimental investigation to represent the plant
effluent as they are all routinely performed on a
regular basis. They also affect the effluent quality to a
great extent and contribute approximately 55% to the
daily total wastewater generation. The selected processes are cotton knit fabric optical brightening, cotton knit
fabric 60 C Remazol 1 dyeing with kiering, cotton knit
fabric 95 C Procion2 dyeing with bleaching and viscose
rayon knit fabric 95 C Procion2 dyeing. It must be kept
in mind that in the typical textile plants some processes
are realized only once in a while. Therefore, such a
selection is an important step in planning the experimental study. The experimental survey is conducted
