The treatment of industrial effluents is done in the following manner:
- Firstly, there is a primary treatment which involves stages like screening, grinding, Then sedimentation technique is used to remove solid waste, filtration and ultra filtration is used.
- Biological process is also used for treatment as a secondary process.
- There is also a tertiary treatment which includes physical, biological processes involving recycling of wastewater.
