One of the most serious problems faced by mankind today is the pollution of environment by his own activities. Civilization is taxing the environment by not only consuming the natural resources but in turning out the waste products into the environment too. Amongst all the polluters of environment, industrial pollution and especially of the textile industries are known to be largest polluters of water sources and this is bound to multiply due to the increased need of industrial products. Thus the most challenging issue for man today is the management of the unavoidable water pollution menace effectively. Normally, the total effluent discharged is about 70-85% ofthe total water consumed by typical composite textile mill.
