Abstract:Collagen, gelatine and total chromium recovery was achieved from the sequential upflow anaerobic sludge blanket digestion (UASB) reactor sludge and concentrate of forward osmosis (FO) treating raw leather industry wastewater. It is aimed to reduce the cost of raw materials in leather industry process by reusing the collagen, gelatine and total chromium from the leather industry process during tanning. The recoveries of collagen and gelatine, total chromium was 78%, 80% and 27% respectively from the waste sludg… Show more
