Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of common effluent treatment plant situated in the MIDC area of Dombivali. The Dombivali (Phase-II) has capacity of 1.5 MLD. These plants majorly treat effluent from chemicals and engineering industries. Water samples were collected at influent and effluent of treatment plant and analyzed for the major water quality parameters viz. pH, biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS) and total dissolved solids (TDS). The overall performance of treatment plant was calculated. The generated data shows that CETP has been working with the norms of Central Pollution Control Board and meeting the discharge standard limits
