Characterization of Leather Industry Wastes
نویسنده
چکیده
In this research samples from solid wastes coming out from various process steps during manufacturing of garment sheep skins, shoe upper goat skins, shoe upper hides and sole leathers have been collected. These samples have been classified among themselves and their characteristics have been determined by various chemical analysis. By characterization of solid wastes which state problems for the environment and costs for treatment; data have been obtained which can be used for new management and evaluation methods.

Solid wastes generation in the leather industry and its utilization for cleaner environmentA review
Leather industry, one of the polluting industries because of generation of huge amount of liquid and solid wastes, also emits obnoxious smell because of degradation of proteinous material of skin and generation of gases such as NH3, H2S and CO2. Solid wastes are raw trimmings, fleshings, chrome shavings, buffing dusts and keratin wastes. Accumulation of these wastes lead to sludge problem and c...
متن کاملBiogas production from tannery wastes – Evaluation of isolated microorganisms effect
The disposal and treatment of wastes generated in the leather industry has been the focus of several studies around the world. They intend to meet environmental legislation and make the process environmentally and economically viable. The anaerobic digestion process, which occurs in steps that involve acid and methane forming bacteria, can be an alternative since it turns the waste into renewab...
متن کاملValorization of titanium metal wastes as tanning agent used in leather industry.
The development of new tanning agents and new technologies in the leather sector is required to cope with the increasingly higher environmental pressure on the current tanning materials and processes such as tanning with chromium salts. In this paper, the use of titanium wastes (cuttings) resulting from the process of obtaining highly pure titanium (ingots), for the synthesis of new tanning age...
متن کاملAmmonia emissions from the composting of different organic wastes. Dependency on process temperature.
UNLABELLED Ammonia emissions were quantified for the laboratory-scale composting of three typical organic wastes with medium nitrogen content: organic fraction of municipal solid wastes, raw sludge and anaerobically digested sludge; and the composting of two wastes with high nitrogen content: animal by-products from slaughterhouses and partially hydrolysed hair from the leather industry. All th...
متن کاملCollagen based magnetic nanocomposites for oil removal applications
A stable magnetic nanocomposite of collagen and superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) is prepared by a simple process utilizing protein wastes from leather industry. Molecular interaction between helical collagen fibers and spherical SPIONs is proven through calorimetric, microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. This nanocomposite exhibited selective oil absorption and magnetic t...
