An Overview on Pulp and Paper Manufacturing Process and its Waste Treatment

The pulp and paper industry has a great impact in the world. It has been manufactured for ages and ages, it is still booming up as industry in small scale and large scale levels. Despite the fact that they produce printing and writing papers, paper rolls, packaging material etc. they also produce large amount of waste materials from their Industry by Manufacturing. This when left untreated leads to environmental pollution, harsh contamination and so on. As every industry has its own waste water treatment methods to recycle, reuse and reduce pollution. This Industry also has its own criteria to carry out the process of waste water treatment, yet it lags in being efficient in it. By the sources collected and compared with other kinds of industries it is listed that pulp and paper manufacturing industry is one of the top most industries to produce large volumes of waste water which has degradable organics at higher level. Hence this paper aims to study the manufacturing process, waste water components released and its effect on environment, the treatment methods carried out and how it can be improvised efficiently in forthcoming days
