The softness of leather is strongly influenced by the fatliquor, which is typically produced through the chemical modification of oils and applied as a surfactant-based emulsion. This study presents a novel fatliquoring formulation …
Open original PDFMicrobial infestation of wet leathers during its storage and transport is major challenge in the tanning industry leading to structural and aesthetic degradation, compromised leather quality, reduced commercial value and reliance on synthetic thiazolebased …
Open original PDFTo mitigate chromium pollution in leather manufacturing, we developed a novel biomass-based chrome-free tanning agent (polyphenol–cyanuric chloride derivative, PCC) by grafting cyanuric chloride (CC) onto tea polyphenol (TP). Exploiting the pH …
Open original PDF… having passed through the lens of green chemistry and sustainability, are novel and versatile in use. Leather manufacturing is an age-old technology and systematic process, it includes intensive use of different chemicals like …
Open original PDFTannery fleshing waste (TFW), a major by-product from leather industry, poses significant environmental challenges due to high organic content, if it is not collected and disposed in proper manner. The potential of banana …
Open original PDF… In this project sustainability and circularity paradigms have been approached by developing new printable polymer bio-composite from leather wastes for Additive Manufacturing (AM). Leather shavings have been used as fillers for PLA and …
Open original PDFThis paper presents the design and performance evaluation of a modular effluent treatment system (ETS) tailored for medium-scale tannery wastewater. Tannery effluent is highly polluted, containing organics (BOD, COD), suspended solids, sulfides and …
Open original PDFThe footwear industry is facing increasing pressure to minimize its environmental impact. It generates a significant quantity of rubber and other wastes. This study investigates the integration of agro-waste and renewable resources as …
Open original PDF… The new oil tanning can be developed on all type of hides (even on big size); leather may be used to produce all type of items. Since the materials come from natural origin source …
Open original PDFIn the context of climate imperatives and the transition from fossil-based inputs, the Trumpler Group has developed an advanced biotechnological platform for valorizing chrome-tanned leather waste. Through controlled enzymatic hydrolysis followed by …
