Abstract:

 

This study examined wastewater characterizations and treatment processes of thirteen different factories
selected among the country's four common sector and its example industries. These sectors were selected as; metal,
food, textile and chemistry. In addition, attempts were made in this study to examine the effectiveness of treatment
processes applied in these factories and their efficiency was evaluated. These experiences are described concerning
the application of physical, chemical and biological processes in the treatment of industrial wastewater in
combination with other advanced processes.
It was determined that different parameters were significant in different industries. The wastewater generated from
various industrial activities was highly contaminated with organic matters as indicated by Chemical Oxygen
Demand (COD) (2106 – 8546 mg/l), Suspended Solids (SS) (895 – 2300 mg/l) and oil  grease (75 – 500 mg/l).
All overall appraisals of the analytical data from the industrial wastewater indicate that treatment is required for all
industrial sectors to achieve compliance with the “Turkish Water Pollution and Control Regulation” which requires
effective treatment of industrial wastewater prior to its discharge.
Keywords: Industrial Wastewater Treatment, Method, Efficiency, Discharge.

 

Bu çalışmada, ülkemizin dört ana sektöründen seçilen 13 farklı endüstrinin ve örnek tesislerinin atık su karakterizasyonları ve arıtma prosesleri incelenmiştir. Bu sektörler; metal, gıda, tekstil ve kimya olarak seçilmiştir. Ayrıca çalışmamızda yürütülen denemelerde, endüstrilerde uygulanan arıtma proseslerinin etkinliği araştırılmış ve verimleri değerlendirilmiştir. Bu araştırmalar, endüstriyel atık su arıtımında fiziksel, kimyasal ve biyolojik proseslerin diğer ileri arıtma yöntemleri ile birlikte uygulandığını ortaya koymaktadır.
