The area of interest is the synthesis and study properties new types hydrogels made from pelt waste, in order to recover waste tanneries. Leather processing tanneries results about 500-600 kg a ton raw hides. These are using smart processes then be applied agriculture, for preservation water soil or controlled release fertilizers, pesticides but also development additivated agricultural film biodegradable over time (between 1 month 6 months). Hydrogels that based on biopolymers, compared with synthetic polymers, have advantage biodegradability, biocompatibility, low level toxicity. paper presents production polymer mixtures obtained hydrolysis enrichment resulting hydrolysate phosphorus potassium. collagenous structure tested high-performance instrumental analysis system (FT-IR-ATR, UV-Vis-NIR, SEM, EDAX, etc). an experimental model obtaining liming process.
