Abstract-
The Commercial Laundry industry is one of the largest consumers of potable water and generator of huge quantities of polluted waste water. Effluent analysis shows that discharged waste water stream is high in COD, BOD, grease/oil, TSS, TDS, detergents and surfactants. Electrocoagulation is an extremely effective wastewater treatment system, removing pollutants and producing hydrogen gas simultaneously as revenue to compensate the operational cost. The aim of this paper is to compare the efficiency of electro- coagulation method with the conventional chemical coagulation. The Laundry named established in boys hostel in LPU campus (BH7, lovely professional university) was selected for the research. By comparing the water quality parameters after treatment, best method was suggested to treat the laundry wastewater and to enhance its reuse and recycle potential.
