Abstract: The dairy industries are an impudend bread and butter piece of many nations due to their resourceful products. Physical properties of dairy industrial effluent was varies with the different treatment methods, sampling sessions and months. The samples were characterized based on physical properties such as TSS, TDS, pH, EC and turbidity. Total seven samples were collected at sampling points of dairy effluent treatment system for further analysis. Results from the study revealed that, dairy effluent is slightly alkaline in nature, and TSS, TDS, pH and turbidity values obtained during the analysis of dairy effluent indicate the presence of heavy load of organic substances. Physical properties of effluent samples obtained after dead-end filtration system were more than the permissible limits of Environmental Protection Rule. Hence, it is very important that proper effluent treatment systems should be installed for the protection of the environmental health and for the ecological balance.
