In the present study, the treatment of industrial wastewater and recycling for industrial uses. Photocatalytic degradation of dyes like methylene Blue dye has been used as technique for treatment in a batch reactor under solar light in heterogeneous slurry utilizing various concentrations of commercial powder TiO2as photocatalysts semiconductors. Also the parameters have been studied catalyst type, catalyst concentration, pH of dye solution and dye concentration at the beginning. Therefore the results show that the best dose of TiO2 is 4.5 gm/l, and the optimum pH is 6. But the percentage removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the dye solutions were for higher than that of the degradation of dye for the same conditions of catalyst.
While the water quality of treated wastewater depends on a greatextent of the quality for the industrial water supply, nature of thewastes added during use, and the degree of treatment the wastewater has received. Then wastewater quality data routinely measured andreported at the wastewater treatment plant are mostly for treatedeffluent disposal or discharge requirements in terms of gross pollution parameter.
