Clean water recovery from the reactive dyeing effluent of a cotton textile mill with membrane filtration was investigated. Lab-scale experiments were performed with wastewater samples taken from the last three steps of the dyeing line, comprising four sequential baths of dyeing, warm rinsing, washing with soap, and lukewarm rinsing. Waste dyeing bath was deliberately excluded considering its extremely high salt and color contents. Two sets of experiments were performed; direct nanofiltration (NF) and NF with pretreatment. In the direct application, NF90 membrane was tested at total recycle mode (TRM), under different trans-membrane pressures (TMPs) and cross-flow velocities (CFs). The best permeate quality was achieved at 14 bar TMP and 58.9 mL/s CF, with 99% TOC and 96% conductivity retentions where the permeate flux was 21.12 L/m2h. Increase in CF did not cause any significant improvements in permeate quality and flux; while TMP increase reduced osmotic pressure influence. When the designated optimal conditions were tested at concentrated mode, till 2.06 volume reduction factor, permeate quality remained satisfactory. In the second part, firstly, 0.45 µm MF and 150 kDa UF membranes were tested. UF was found more promising, so, NF after pretreatment studies were completed with UF. Minor improvements in NF permeate color were achieved. Besides, NF flux increased to 35.08 L/m2h at 14 bar, due to serious reductions in concentration polarization and fouling. Also, the possible effects of the inclusion of dyeing bath to the feed were examined. UF performance was not influenced; however, NF permeate quality and flux deteriorated dramatically.

Recovery of brackish water from reactive dyeing wastewater by ultrafiltration
Erkanlı, Mert; ZAF, RUKEN DİLARA; Yılmaz, Levent; Çulfaz Emecen, Pınar Zeynep; Yetiş, Ülkü (2017-02-06)
In this study, brackish water recovery from a real reactive dyeing textile effluent for reuse of water and salt was investigated. With the aim of improving the overall retention of species that are partly retained in a single stage, three different two-stage ultrafiltration scenarios were considered: 5 kDa followed by 5 kDa, 5 kDa followed by 2 kDa and 2 kDa followed by 2 kDa. The 2 kDa + 2 kDa scenario reduced the total organic carbon (TOC) from 239 +/- 9 mg/L to 41 +/- 7 mg/L, at 2 bar of transmembrane pr...
Membrane based strategies for the pre-treatment of acid dye bath wastewaters
Capar, Goksen; Yetiş, Ülkü; Yılmaz, Levent (2006-07-31)
This paper, as part of a study carried out for the recovery of the acid dye bath wastewaters of a carpet manufactuting industry by membrane processes, describes the evaluation of alternative strategies for the pre-treatment of acid dye bath wastewaters. Dead-end microfiltration (MF) simulating sand filtration with MF media having pore sizes of 2.5. 1.0. 0.45 and 0.2 mu m and ultrafiltration (UF) with an UF membrane having a molecular weight cut off (MWCO) of 50,000 Da were tested in single and sequential st...
Removal of endocrine disrupter compounds and trace organics in membrane bioreactors
Komesli, Okan Tarik; Gökçay, Celal Ferdi; Department of Environmental Engineering (2012)
Endocrine disrupters and trace organic contaminants are recently recognized contaminants in wastewaters. Current concept is the multibarier approach where the contaminants are removed from the water cycle both by water and wastewater treatment facilities, as well as natural die-away. In this thesis work LC/MS/MS determination of selected EDC compounds, namely, diltiazem, progesterone, estrone, carbamazepine, benzyl butyl phthalate and acetaminophen, at ultra trace levels, have been carried out by optimizing...
Purification and Concentration of Caustic Mercerization Wastewater by Membrane Processes and Evaporation for Reuse
Tunç, Müslün Sara; Yılmaz, Levent; Yetiş, Ülkü; Çulfaz Emecen, Pınar Zeynep (2014-01-01)
A membrane-based treatment strategy was developed for purifying the highly alkaline textile mercerization wastewater. 0.2-mu m MF and 100 kDa UF membranes were evaluated as pretreatment alternatives before 10 kDa UF and 200 Da NF membranes. Turbidity was almost totally removed by both pretreatment options, while UF (100 kDa) showed higher COD retention than MF. In total recycle mode of filtration, fouling of both UF and MF membranes were 80% reversible by physical and almost totally reversible (>= 97%) by c...
Fouling analysis for different ultrafiltration membranes in reactive dyeing wastewater treatment
Zaf, Ruken Dilara; Yetiş, Ülkü; Çulfaz Emecen, Pınar Zeynep; Department of Environmental Engineering (2017)
Textile industry produces wastewater that is often very rich in salt and color, containing residues of dyes and other chemicals. Treating this wastewater to exceptionally high quality standards, typically for reuse purposes, necessitates advanced treatment methods among which membrane technology is a leading one. However, membrane fouling which can be caused by dissolved and particulate solids appears as the major limitation with the use of membranes in wastewater reclamation that leads to reduced efficienc...
