In order to have comparative experimental results, the CWPO
experiments were performed using the same synthetic dye solution
as used in the microbial process which was a mixture of Reactive
Black 5 and Procion Red MX-5B at equal concentrations of
200 mg/L each at a pH around 7. In addition to this, a real textile
industry wastewater was also tested using the CWPO process.
Some properties of the original industrial wastewater werepH= 10,
COD= 7250 mg/L.
