Tannage Résumé : In recent times leather industry is looking at options for a tanning system especially based on the natural products such as vegetable tanning materials. Nevertheless there is also a clear shortcoming in the usage of vegetable tanning materials because of the high organic load in the effluent generated, which is difficult to degrade and hence leads to high biological or chemical oxygen demand. Hence, in this study, methods to treat the effluent liquor containing myrobalan, a widely used hydrolysable tannin have been explored to reduce the pollution load generated by the same. Two methods have been adopted for the treatment of the myrobalan liquor. The first method involves breaking down of vegetable tannins to simpler compounds by oxidative degradation using hydrogen peroxide. The second method involves the precipitation of vegetable tannins using zinc sulfate as the precipitant. A 28% reduction in the COD has been obtained for the effluent liquor treated with H2O2 in the presence of Zerolite-Iron catalyst at 50°C. Myrobalan liquor precipitated with zinc sulfate at a pH of 10 has resulted in the reduction of COD by 74%. Additional reduction in the COD has been obtained by adapting the precipitation followed by oxidative degradation method in the presence of Zerolite-Iron catalyst, which has resulted in the reduction of COD load by 96%.

Biochemical composi-tion varies with respect to different portions of the skin like butt, belly, shank, and neck. Belly part looseness is the main problem in leather making from sheepskin. To address this issue, the present work focuses on analysis of histology and biochemical prop-erties of butt and belly portion of sheepskin from the southern part of India. Globular proteins are relatively higher in the butt portion than the belly, whereas it is reverse in the case of fibrous proteins except collagen. Interestingly, the presence of proteo-glycans content in butt regions is significantly high compared to belly and in case of fat content it is reverse. Acid soluble colla-gen contribution is higher in butt region than belly and vice-versa in the case of pepsin soluble collagen. In general, collagen con-tent is significantly higher in butt than belly, which may be the major cause for the higher strength characteristics of butt regions. Cr2O3 content is higher in butt region than belly, which corroborates with protein content and its interaction with tanning agents. Distribution of pore size influences the breathability property of leather, which has been altered in all the unit operations. Scan-ning electron microscopy study reveals the morphology of the grain and cross-section of the skin changes during leather pro-cessing. Thus, this study aids in better understanding of the butt and belly regions of Indian sheepskin.

Langues : Américain (ame) Index. décimale : 675.2 Préparation du cuir naturel. Tannage Résumé : One of the best ways to combat chrome pollution is to avoid chromium itself in tanning. With this view, a chrome-free combination tanning system has been established using aluminium, tannic acid, a precursor to vegetable tannins and silica. Since tannic acid has low molecular weight compared to vegetable tannins, it can be successfully used to make a variety of leathers and the problems associated with vegetable tannins like hard biodegradability of tannins, fullness and darkness of leathers can be avoided. The presence of aluminium not only improves the hydrothermal stability of leather but also gives a pleasant pastel color to the leather due to the formation of aluminium-tannic acid complex, which produces colour in the matrix thus leading to the concept of natural dyeing. The fastness properties of the color obtained have been studied and have been found to be significantly good. The presence of silica in the combination system gives rise to softness and fluffiness. The amount of tannic acid, aluminium sulfate and sodium metasilicate has been chosen as 10, 5, and 5% (on pelt weight), respectively. In order to avoid pollution due to pickling operation, pickle-less tanning has been carried out. Both upper and garment leathers have been made and the characteristics of the same have been studied. The shrinkage temperature of the leathers obtained from this combination tanning system is about 95°C. The physical strength characteristics and the organoleptic properties of the leathers obtained are on par with or better than the conventional chrome tanned leathers. The effluent arising from this tanning system has been analyzed for its environmental impact. The exhaustion of aluminium is about 98%. Also, there is significant reduction in the COD and TDS. Thus, an eco-benign chrome-free combination tanning system has been established.

Langues : Américain (ame) Index. décimale : 675.2 Préparation du cuir naturel. Tannage Résumé : Leather industry in the world is presently undergoing radical transformation due to environmental pollution and discharge statutes. Hence, the industry is stressed to search for cleaner leather processing. Present leatherprocessing methodologies are known to contribute higher pollution loads. This method of tanning process comprises 'do-undo' logic. In addition, the conventional methods followed in leather processing subject the collagen matrix to wide variation in pH (2.8 - 13.0). This is evidenced from the emission of huge amount of pollution loads such as bio-chemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total dissolved solids (TDS), total solids (TS), sulfates, chlorides and chromium. In the study illustrated here, the hair and flesh removal as well as fiber opening have been achieved using bio-products at pH 8.0, pickle free semi-metal tanning employing aluminium, vegetable tannins and silica followed by post-tanning using environmental benign chemicals. Hence, eco-benign chemicals have been used throughout the leather processing. It has been observed that the extent of hair removal and opening up of fiber bundles are comparable to that of conventionally processed leathers. This has been demonstrated through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and softness measurements. The shrinkage temperature of the experimental leathers obtained from this combination tanning system is about 100°C. Performance of the leathers is shown to be on par with conventionally chrome-tanned leathers through physical strength and hand evaluation. The developed process also exhibits significant reduction in BOD, COD, TDS and TS loads by 46, 33, 91, and 92%, respectively. Further, the developed process appears to be economically viable.

Tannage au chromeIndex. décimale : 675 Technologie du cuir et de la fourrure Résumé : Present leather-making processes cause difficulties, with regard to their perceived environmental impact. Pre-tanning and tanning processes contribute more than 90% of the total pollution load from leather processing.
Conventional process methods subject the skin to wide variations in pH. Such pH changes, lead to salt formation which results in a net increase in COD, TDS, chlorides, sulphates and chromium levels in tannery wastewaters.
In this study, a three-step process sequence has been explored to limit the pH range in leather processing to between 4.0-8.0. A sequence of operations, viz. enzyme unhairing, NaOH based fibre opening and pickle-less chrome tanning produces leathers matching the functional performance of conventionally processed leathers but leading to substantial environmental benefits in the reduction of COD and total solids by 43 and 70%, respectively. Water consumption for processing is reduced to 17.81/Kg raw hide. The process sequence explored appears to be economically viable.Note de contenu : - EXPERIMENTAL METHODS :
