Abstract

A field work was undertaken to study the physico-chemical and biological parameters of treated distillery effluent and the effect of various concentrations such as (0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100%) on plant growth i.e. seed germination, root length, shoot length, length of leaves, chlorophyll content in the Achyranthes aspera. The effluent could not be directly applied to the field because of its excessive TDS, BOD and COD values and large quantities of soluble and suspended organic matter. Effluents was filtered through muslin cloth and diluted 2.5 times and there after various dilutions were prepared by diluting it with tap water.
