Dyes that are used in the industries are the molecules designed to impart colour to the textile fabrics.Wastewater generated by these industries is known to have most polluting molecules both in terms of quality as well asquantity. There are several processes viz. physical, chemical, biological which are widely used for the color removal.Currently, number of absorption process are used for removal of different classes of pollutant especially which are noteasily biodegradable. Electrocoagulation proves to be an effective technique for textile wastewater for color and CODremoval. Most widely used process used adsorbents are activated carbon, orange peel, activated alumina, silica etc . Wehave compared the color and COD removal efficiency by electrocoagulation, orange-banana peel powder and chitosan.Color removal by these three techniques was compared by looking at the change in color. COD reduction efficiency forelectrocoagulation was found maximum at 8V for 20min detention time which was 92%. Similarly it was found that CODreduction for chitosan was 65% for 3.5 gram dose for detention time of 1hour and for orange-banana peel powder63.6% for detention time of 1hour of 4gram of orange and 6gram banana peel powder.
