Textile effluents are highly colored for synthetic dyes, cause significant water pollution due to high pH, TDS, EC, BOD, and COD content, and are harmful to aquatic species. Among different treatment processes, biological treatment process is considered as a promising approach. In this investigation, a mixed aerobic bacterial consortium was used for the treatment of wastewater. In addition, the fenton process with a normal sand filter was used for treatment and compared with the biological method. The mean values of BOD, COD, TDS, EC, DO, and pH in the raw wastewater indicated that the effluent was highly contaminated according to Bangladesh standard (ECR, 1997). Both the biological treatment process and fenton process separately showed promising removal of pollution load. The aerobic mixed bacterial consortium reduced TDS (66.67%), EC (60%), BOD (91.67%), and COD (85.45%) and fenton process reduced TDS (74.71%), EC (55.11%), BOD (88.33%), and COD (83.63%) compared to the raw effluent bacterial consortium simultaneously degraded dyes and decolorized the wastewater from dark deep green to transparent. Color removal for the mixed aerobic bacterial process after 72 hours of aeration was 58.57% and for the fenton process with a normal sand filter was 80%. BOD and COD removal percentages for aerobic mixed bacterial consortium showed higher removal efficiency than the fenton process with a normal sand filter. Though 92 hours of aeration showed the maximum satisfactory result, aeration time could be reduced to 72 hours which also satisfied the Bangladeshi standard (ECR, 1997).
