Summary

Introduction

The environment is a victim of several aggressive industrial activities. On the one hand, textile industries release huge amounts of wastewater causing serious damage to surface and underground water resources.As a rough estimation in sequence, to process a ton of textile, 230–270 tons of water has to be used [1,2,3]. The environment is a victim of several aggressive industrial activities. Textile industries release huge amounts of wastewater causing serious damage to surface and underground water resources. As a rough estimation in sequence, to process a ton of textile, 230–270 tons of water has to be used [1,2,3]. The resulting effluents of such processes are highly loaded with organic pollutants such as salts and synthetic dyes [4]. In Tunisia, most of the textile industries discharge untreated wastewater into water bodies, which percolates into the groundwater, posing a threat to the health and socioeconomic life of the people.
