Abstract The issue of water contamination has gotten worse worldwide due to industrialization and population increase. The wastewater discharge techniques used by Ethiopia’s textile sector do not comply with the national discharge standard. Because the discharge of inadequately treated or untreated textile effluent into the environment is becoming more frequent. Thus, minimizing this trend’s harm to the environment requires using the best wastewater treatment technology. Coagulation is considered one of the most effective methods for treating textile wastewaters, which technically need to have a natural or artificial coagulant added to eliminate dangerous pollutants. Nonetheless, criticism has been leveled against the use of chemical coagulants due to their serious disadvantages. Nowadays Cactus mucilage introduced a new advancement by replacing synthetic coagulants, it’s because of its properties to bind the suspended solids, days present in wastewater. Cactus mucilage contains polysaccharides and mucilage which helps in binding the suspended solids present in wastewater and making fit it for reuse. Cactus mucilage is a natural coagulant which is sustainable to the environment. During disposable of wastewater, synthetic coagulant can also degrade the soil hence Cactus mucilage also plays an important role in maintaining the soil properties. Cactus mucilage is an alternative to synthetic coagulants, it can be added with synthetic coagulants or it can be used alone. Cactus mucilage also helps us to reduce turbidity in wastewater. Nowadays it's generally used in industries because of low cost , easily available and easy to Performance of cactus mucilage is also superior when it’s compared with synthetic coagulants.
