A Review on the Role of Microorganisms in Treatment of Paper and Pulp Industry Effluent
The pulp and paper industries produce large amount of toxic and strongly coloured waste effluents, causing severe water pollution. This paper is the state of the art review of microorganisms for pulp and paper mill wastewater treatment and presentation of available treatment processes. A comparison of most usable treatment processes is presented. Fungal treatment is found to be efficient in colour removal. Combination of anaerobic and aerobic treatment processes are considered to be efficient in removal of soluble biodegradable organic pollutants.
