Project report on study on Chemicals Consumption and Operational Cost of Textile ETP Plants

Abstract

The aim of this project is to represent the chemical consumption and operational cost of ETP plant in textile industry. The main objective is to compare the cost of ETP chemical for different ETP plant to choose effective ETP chemicals with minimum cost. The data presented in this project is based on the reporting books of chemical consumption in ETP plant of different textile industries & suppliers of ETP chemicals. As we will be the future technologist at wet processing unit we have decided to gather a clear concept on effluent treatment. We think only technologists from wet processing unit can control the effluent pollution. For this reason we have decided that our project works should be “Study on Chemicals Consumption and Operational Cost of Textile ETP Plants”. To accomplish this project we have chosen four reputed textile industries of Bangladesh named Divine Textile LTD, Divine Fabric LTD, Beximco Textile LTD and Raiyan Knit Composite LTD. First we have find out the different cost section of ETP operation like chemical cost, wages of employee and ETP utility cost. The textile industry use different types of ETP chemicals according to type of ETP plant. We have found 7 types of ETP chemicals they used. Operational cost for treating 1m3 effluent ranges from BDT 14.43 to BDT 25.66. Through this project work we gained a significant knowledge on the chemical consumption & operational cost of effluent treatment plants which will help us to supervise wet processing activities with caring our green environment.
