### Response Surface Optimization for Waste Water from Textile Industry

Jaspreet Kaur

Abstract: The findings of the study showed that at optimum conditions of the operating parameters i.e., current density = 14.17 mA/cm2 , t = 102 min, and pH = 6.25, 63.41% of COD removal, 90.93% of dye removal and 0.0035 kWh/kg of energy consumption, were observed. Kinetic studies showed that EC based treatment of STW followed first order kinetics and the kinetic constants at 30°C for each response parameter i.e., % COD removal and % dye removal were 0.0205 min-1 and 0.0097 min-1 , respectively. Similarly, at 50°C the kinetic constants for % COD removal and % dye removal were 0.037 min-1 and 0.011 min-1 , respectively. Further, it was also observed that the amount of Al in the treated STW, sludge and scum was observed to be 25.16 mg/l, 0.50778g and 0.06006 g, respectively.
