Abstract:Tannery effluent was collected from Common Effluent Treatment Plant, Dindigul, Tamil Nadu and used for analysis for physico-chemical, heavy metals and biological properties. Soil samples were collected from the field and Aspergillus sp. and Pseudomonas sp. were isolated and pure cultured. The pH of the tannery waste water was around 8.50 and electrical conductivity was 2.89 dS/m indicating the alkalinity of the effluent. Total dissolved solids(TSS) was found to be 1460 mg/L and BOD showed 2346 mg/l. The AAS re… Show more
