Wastewater from an aminoplast industry located at industrial Estate Gadoon Amazai was chemically evaluated for parameters like; pH, turbbity, sulphide, suspended solid, chemical oxygen demand (COD), and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5). It was found that the effluents contain very high COD (23490 – 28410 mg O2/ L) Which render it harmful for aquatic life when discharge into the near by water channels without any treatment techniques like air stripping, Ph adjustment, flocculation and chemical adsorprtion were employed the treatment techniques. The results were found promising which suggest that a combined strategy based on the above techniques can be adopted for the treatment of the toxic nature of this industrial effluent. A combined treatment strategy incorporating the results of the present study and the polishing treatment technique is proposed for better results
