Performance of Selected Paper and Pulp Industrial Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP) of Narayanganj Area

Abstract

Narayangonj is one of the largest industrial zones in Bangladesh, making it crucial to investigate any potential enterprises to see whether they have an effective and well-maintained ETP. We chose the pulp and paper industry because there haven't been many studies done on it, so we could assess how the ETP's chosen pulp & paper industries were performing. We conducted research to find out pulp and paper industry’s production process, wastewater sources and ETP performance. Result shows all the industries we visited meet the DoE limits
