Résumé : |
A look at the issues and possible solutions to the problems of dung contaminated hides.
According to K. S. Kruszelnicki, each year, the 30 million cattle in Australia cover over 20 000 square kilometres of grazing land with dung. Goodness knows how much is produced by the world's cattle population every year. For the leather industry at least, so long as this dung stays at ground level where it can naturallydegrade and be incorporated into the soil, it is not a problem to the tanner. However, in some countries cattle are kept in confined areas, eg when they are brought into sheds for the winter months, where they may not choose to lay in their own waste, but ave no choice. In such circumstances cattle inevitably get some of this dung stuck to their hides and this can be a serious problem for the tanner. So what are theses problems ? Well there are many : Irritation - Hide weight - Chemical calculation - Removal problems - Putrefaction - Effluent - ICT project - Dried dung |
