Abstract

The textile industry is vital to Bangladesh's economy, employing over three million women and being the top foreign exchange earner. However, it severely impacts the environment because of untreated wastewater discharge. High treatment costs, reliant on expensive imported chemicals, worsen the issue. The Environmental Conservation Rules (ECR) 2023 of Bangladesh requires textile wastewater discharge to have a colour of less than 150 Pt‐Co, which current systems struggle to meet affordably. A pilot project tested a sustainable solution using chemical oxidation with calcium hypochlorite and sand filtration with blast furnace iron slag. This method effectively removed colour, and the treated water showed total dissolved solids (TDS) levels of 157 ± 4 mg/L, total suspended solids (TSS) levels of 8 ± 2 mg/L and chemical oxygen demand (COD) levels of 9 ± 3 mg/L, with reductions of 92%, 87% and 94%, respectively, making it a viable solution for resource‐limited economies.

在废高炉铁渣的帮助下，通过次氯酸钙氧化和后续过滤提高纺织废水的可持续性

纺织业对孟加拉国的经济至关重要，它雇用了 300 多万名妇女，是赚取外汇最多的行业。然而，由于未经处理的废水排放，该行业严重影响了环境。依靠昂贵的进口化学品，高昂的处理成本使问题更加严重。孟加拉国《2023 年环境保护规则》（ECR）要求纺织废水排放的色度必须低于 150 Pt-Co，而目前的系统难以经济地满足这一要求。一个试点项目测试了一种使用次氯酸钙化学氧化和高炉铁渣砂滤的可持续解决方案。这种方法能有效去除颜色，处理后的水显示总溶解固体（TDS）水平为 157 ± 4 mg/L，总悬浮固体（TSS）水平为 8 ± 2 mg/L，化学需氧量（COD）水平为 9 ± 3 mg/L，分别降低了 92%、87% 和 94%，使其成为资源有限经济体的可行解决方案。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
