TADOX to treat sewage and industrial wastewater for optimum reuse in industrial processes

TERI has patented and developed an innovative technology called TERI Advanced Oxidation Technology (TADOX), which aims at complete end-to-end treatment of wastewater effluent streams of sewage and / or mixed streams of industrial effluents having high colour, COD, BOD, TSS, nonbiodegradable and persistent organic pollutants (POPs), generated from highly polluting industries like textile, dyeing, chemical, pharmaceuticals, oil & gas, slaughter house, tannery, etc. TADOX integrates Nanotechnology and Advanced Oxidation Processes in current systems and together make the treated water having process water quality, suitable for any industrial application. These will be discussed in the light of results obtained at pilot scale towards treatment of sewage and wastewater generated from highly polluting industries like textile and dyeing using TADOX.
