Abstract
The present paper deals with the characterization of wastewaters gener ated from each separated stage during a cellulosic and or polyesteric fibres dyeing and finishing process. From fifteen stages of a cellulos ic fibers dyeing process 254 L of wastewater per kg of fibers are prod uced while for polyesteric/cellulosic fibres dyeing process using eigh teen stages 318 L of wastewater pr kg of fibers used are produced. The total effluent contains low concentration of organics, high color uni ts, temperature, pH, alkalinity and sodium chloride concentration.
