Wastewater treatment and reuse in textile and leather manufacturing

We provide comprehensive solutions for wastewater treatment and reuse in the textile sector. Our solutions include the design, manufacturing, commissioning, and maintenance phases of the plant.

The textile industry generates large volumes of wastewater loaded with a variety of contaminants, including dyes, chemicals, heavy metals, and organic compounds resulting from various production processes. Our solutions are developed to effectively eliminate these contaminants, ensuring that the treated water meets the highest environmental standards and can be discharged or reused in compliance with current regulations.

By incorporating advanced treatment technologies such as physico-chemical pretreatments, membrane filtration, biological treatment, vacuum evaporation, and advanced oxidation processes, our plants not only purify wastewater but also enable the recovery and reuse of treated water within the production cycle. This approach helps textile manufacturers reduce their freshwater consumption and discharge costs, leading to significant savings and a more sustainable operation.

Our systems are designed to be efficient, reliable, and durable, providing long-term solutions that optimize resources, improve sustainability, and support the textile industry’s transition towards more environmentally friendly and cost-effective practices.

The main sources of pollution that can be found in the textile and leather industries are:

  • Bleaching water
  • Scouring water
  • Desizing water
  • Mercerization water
  • Dyeing water
  • Rinsing and general washing water
  • Preservation brines
  • Beamhouse water
  • Tanning, post-tanning, and finishing water

At Condorchem Envitech, we have extensive experience in implementing the necessary technologies for the treatment of effluents generated by any textile and leather product manufacturing plant.

We have commissioned wastewater treatment and reuse plants for companies in the textile and leather sectors engaged in the following activities:

  • Preparation and spinning of fibers.
  • Fabric manufacturing.
  • Dyeing, printing, finishing of textiles.
  • Garment manufacturing.
  • Manufacturing of other textile products.
  • Preparation, tanning, and dyeing of hides.
  • Preparation, tanning, and finishing of leather.
