“…Industrial activities severely impact ecosystems, introducing heavy metals like Pb(II), Zn(II), Cr(III), Cr(VI), Ni(II), Hg(II), As(III), Cd(II), Co(II), Fe(II), Se, V, etc., into the environment via process water. − These non-biodegradable and toxic metals pose a threat if untreated, accumulating in soil and organisms. − With high chromium and chloride content, chrome tanning effluents present significant challenges. − Treating them at the point of entry offers an alternative to conventional methods. Chrome tanning yields effluents rich in chromium and chloride, necessitating separate treatment. − …”
