Abstract
This stud provides a scientific methodology for the recycle and reuse of in dustrial wastewaters. Textile finishing industry has high water use and was tewater generation. Water use should be decreased by the recycle and reuse of wastewater. In this context a typical knit fabric finishing mill produci ng 750 m(3) wastewater per day, has been investigated to present an example for the presented methodology and it is concluded that 30% reduction of wa ter could be possible in cotton and viscose rayon knit fabric finishing ope rations.
