  4. RECOVERY OF CAUSTIC SODA (NaOH) IN TEXTILE INDUSTRY CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT watermanaustralia.com

  5. Caustic soda is a white, solid ionic chemical composed of sodium (Na+) and hydroxide ions (OH–). It is also known as lye. When dissolved in water, it generates a solution with a high pH. Chemically, caustic solutions have the ability to dissolve organic materials hydrocarbons. It is widely employed on the market for cleaning process equipment and other purposes. Caustic is a strongly alkaline and hygroscopic substance. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT

  10. Smallest system typically treats around 5000 gallons per day or one cubic metre per hour. It is based on one single pressure vessel with loaded with spiral bound elements. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT For larger flow rates, we can either customise the larger system or provide multiple scales of the large systems. Their largest system is designed to treat 250,000 gallons per day. watermanaustralia.com

  17. This not only reduces the cost of production but also helps to reduce the environmental impact of the textile industry CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT By reducing the amount of waste generated and reducing the overall consumption of caustic soda. Moreover, caustic soda recovery also helps to improve the quality of effluent discharge As the recovered caustic soda can be neutralized, reducing the pH level of the effluent and making it safer for discharge into the environment. watermanaustralia.com

  23. Pretreatment: The cotton fibers are cleaned and scoured to remove any impurities, such as wax, grease, and pectin. Immersion in caustic soda solution: The cotton fibers are immersed in a concentrated caustic soda solution, typically at a concentration of 18-25% and at a temperature of around 20-30°C. The fibers are kept in the solution for a period of time, typically 15-30 minutes, depending on the desired level of mercerization. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT Neutralization: After the mercerizing process, the fibers are neutralized in a dilute acid solution, such as acetic acid or citric acid, to stop the action of the caustic soda and stabilize the fibers. Washing: The fibers are then washed to remove any residual caustic soda and acid from the fibers. Drying: The fibers are dried, either by air-drying or machine-drying, to remove any moisture.

  24. Diluted lye is a byproduct generated during textile processing, particularly after dyeing. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT Lye, also known as sodium hydroxide is used in the dyeing process to adjust the pH level of the dye bath to ensure proper dye penetration and fixation on the fibers. DILUTED LYE PRODUCED AFTER DYE, TEXTILE PROCESSING After the dyeing process, the lye solution is typically diluted with water, producing a diluted lye solution. The diluted lye solution contains residual dye and other impurities, and it must be properly treated before being discharged into the environment. The treatment typically involves neutralizing the lye solution with an acid, such as acetic acid, to reduce the pH level and make it safe for discharge. In some cases, the diluted lye solution can be reused in the production process, such as for scouring or mercerizing. This helps to reduce the amount of waste generated and the overall consumption of caustic soda. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT

  25. water@watermanaustralia.com The input to the membrane recovery system generates a permeate containing caustic that is subjected to a subsequent evaporation stage. Membranes have proved their utility in caustic recovery and a variety of textile wastewater treatment applications. 1.Membrane Based Caustic Recovery Methods However, caustic recovery by membrane techniques does not ensure 100% caustic or NaOH recovery from alkaline wastewaters. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT

  26. It is generally considered sufficient for particle and macromolecule removal; nevertheless, additional treatment is normally required for decolorization. However, NF may be used to decolorize and separate organic molecules with low molecular weights as well as divalent ions. UF is recognised by the membrane technology as a caustic recovery technique. Although caustic has been recovered from mercerizing process effluents using this method Additionally, it has a unique softening effect watermanaustralia.com

  31. Dilute caustic around 3% would be concentrated up to 24 % The concentration of dilute caustic soda solutions, typically around 3%, can be increased to higher levels, such as 24%, through a process called evaporation. During the evaporation process, the water is removed from the dilute caustic soda solution through heating, resulting in a concentrated caustic soda solution. In the textile industry, dilute caustic solutions are often concentrated to higher levels during the caustic recovery process. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT watermanaustralia.com

  32. water@watermanaustralia.com It is important to note that the evaporation process requires careful control of the temperature and pressure to ensure that the caustic soda does not break down The concentrated solution can then be reused in the production process, reducing the need for fresh caustic soda and minimizing waste. The resulting solution meets the specifications for use in the production process. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT

  33. BENEFITS OF CAUSTIC RECOVERY SYSTEMS IN TEXTILE INDUSTRY CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT watermanaustralia.com

  34. water@watermanaustralia.com Reduced costs: By recovering and reusing caustic soda, the textile industry can reduce the amount of fresh caustic soda that needs to be purchased, leading to reduced costs. Improved sustainability: The caustic recovery process is an important part of sustainable textile production, as it helps to conserve resources and reduce waste. Increased efficiency: By reusing the recovered caustic soda, the textile industry can increase the efficiency of its production processes, leading to improved productivity and cost savings. Improved product quality: The recovered caustic soda can be used in the production process to improve the quality of the final product, such as through mercerization, scouring, and bleaching. Compliance with environmental regulations: The treatment of waste streams, including the recovery and reuse of caustic soda, is an important part of compliance with environmental regulations. The use of caustic recovery systems helps to ensure that the textile industry is operating in an environmentally responsible manner. CAUSTIC RECOVERY PLANT
