Bicarbonate-Hydrogen Peroxide System for Treating Dyeing Wastewater: Degradation of Organic Pollutants and Color Removal.

The textile industry is a global economic driving force; however, it is also one of the most polluting industries, with highly toxic effluents which are complex to treat due to the recalcitrant nature of some compounds present in these effluents. This research focuses on the removal of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), color, Total Organic Carbon (TOC), and Ammoniacal Nitrogen (N-NH) on tannery wastewater treatment through an advanced oxidation process (AOPs) using sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO), hydrogen peroxide (HO) and temperature using a central composite non-factorial design with a surface response using Statistica 7.0 software.
