Abstract
• Textile mill being largest industry in Bangladesh faces
problem of sludge disposal. In this study attempt is
made to reuse textile mill sludge on plant as a
fertilizer.
Introduction
• The ready-made garment sector has become one of
the largest manufacturing sectors in Bangladesh with
approximately 4490 apparel manufacturing units.
• A semi-automated composite textile industry of 10 tons
capacity produces 1250 m3 of effluent each daywhich
are being directly discharged into the surrounding
channel, agricultural fields, irrigation channels, surface
water
• For this, nearly 30 numbers of villages at Gazipur and
a large number of people living near the D.N.D
Embankment area are now being threatened due to
the environmental degradation.
• So here we try to find a Suitable to manage the sludge
for saving environment.
Aim of the present work
• The main objective of this investigation is to
study the feasibility of reuse of textile mill
sludge can be used as fertilization to minimize
the costing.
• Very few research work is done on it so we try
to establish a suitable way for managing waste
sludge.
• Reused the sludge to make it benefited for the
organization
Textile sludge generation and
source
• The main cause of generation of this sludge is the
use of huge volume of water either in the actual
chemical processing or during re-processing in
preparatory, dyeing, printing and finishing.
• In fact, in a practical estimate, it has been found that
45% material in preparatory processing, 33% in dyeing
and 22% are re-processed in finishing.
• But where is the real problem? The fact is that the
sludge generated in different steps is well beyond the
standard and thus it is highly polluted and dangerous.
This is demonstrated in following table.

Chemical Processing
Treatment Methods
Effluent can be treated in a number of different
ways depending on the level of treatment
required. These levels are known as
•
•
•
•
Preliminary (Physical)
Primary (Physical and chemical)
Secondary (Biological and chemical) and
tertiary (or advanced or Physical, chemical
and biological.)
Effluent Treatment Plant Used
In Bangladesh
• Biological Treatment :
The basic units needed for biological
treatment are: screening; an equalization unit;
a pH control unit; an aeration unit; and a
settling unit. A sludge dewatering unit may
also be included. Biological treatment plants
require the presence of microorganisms that
are adapted to degrade the components of the
effluent to be treated.

Physico-chemical Treatment
• The basic units needed for a stand-alone
physico-chemical treatment plant are
screening, an equalization unit, a pH
control unit, chemical storage tanks, a
mixing unit, a flocculation unit, a settling
unit and a sludge dewatering unit.

• From the above picture we can say that sludge have
some good impact to grow up this plant. We may take
decision that sludge can be used as fertilizer also.
Here we apply sludge into non crop plants. We use
only Flower and Forest plants so there will no bad
effect on human bodies because none of parts of the
plants is used as food or else for human body. Now
we can take decision that may use the sludge as a
fertilizer for non crop plants. Farther research may
done on crop plants and determine the food Toxicity
after implementation sludge on crop plant.
Conclusion
• Solid waste management is a very serious problem in
both human settlements and industrial establishments.
In such circumstances, management of sludge in
textile industry has now become a burning issue due
to its surplus volume and undesired characteristics.
The main objective of this research work was to study
the suitability of utilizing sludge as a fertilizer. We
found very good visual effect of using sludge as
fertilization in rain tree and jasmine. As we treated
sludge effect on fertilization on non crop plants heavy
metal and toxicity transfer rate may not create any
harmful effect on human body. The question remains
how much heavy metal and toxicity transfer to the
trees and how much heavy metal contents in the
sludge?
Thank You
