Abstract
Clothing is a basic necessity of human but the industries that produce clothing pose a serious environmental pollution in many ways. One such problem is the effluents from the wet processing of textile materials. The complex nature of textile effluent makes the recycling process challenging and also expensive. The extensive use of water for the wet processing of textiles and the scarcity of water resources demand efficient and cost-effective methods for the treatment of textile effluent. Agro-residual and plant materials were effectively used by researchers to develop low-cost effluent treatment. Also, some species of microbes could be used effectively for effluent treatment. Activated carbon is another low-cost adsorbent used effectively for textile effluent treatment. This chapter explores the low-cost and innovative materials that could be used for the treatment of textile waste water.
