The tanning industry generates a large amount of waste, which should be managed following the principles circular economy. It is estimated that leather processing produces 200 times more waste than total product output. This paper presents review methods offer recycling materials or energy from tannery including chemical, thermal and biological techniques. These processes can recover number secondary feedstocks such as chromium, nutrients, collagen hydrolysate, fat, biogas, anaerobic...
The aim of this review was to discuss the transition from traditional irrigation fertigation using reclaimed wastewater in countries with moderate climate. In most European there are no regulations on waste water reuse and other hand where very strict. An important aspect is standardize restrictions, which would minimize uncontrolled use for fertigation. Wastewater a source plant nutrients organic matter, but can be contaminated chemicals pathogens, turn lead secondary environmental...
Drying is an integral part in the treatment of grains to maintain freshness and good quality agricultural products, while protecting bioactive substances (vitamins, antioxidants). The processing allows long-term safe storage but one most energy-consuming steps food production. Reducing drying costs by proper energy management, including heat recovery moisture removal from air current challenge. purpose this review was present recent innovations seed grain systems against background...
The aim of this work was to investigate the influence crosslinking agent on production biopolymer composites with immobilized eggshells. Capsules various chemical composition were produced: pure alginate (ALG) and carboxymethylcellulose different content biosorbent (5 wt% 10 wt%). Two agents have been used for composites, i.e. Cu2+ ions Ca2+ ions. Physicochemical properties (drying kinetics, swelling) sorption structures examined. Composite functional groups responsible binding cations using...
The aim of the study was to indicate potential application superabsorbent hydrogels as water reservoirs, well macro and microelement carriers, for use watering fertilization arable lands in context hydrological drought.A review latest research on biodegradable structures used agriculture is presented.Hydrogels composed natural polymer materials can absorb from precipitation gradually release it into soil during drought.They are therefore a buffering factor increasing capacity soils.The...
The automotive upholstery industry, which processes bovine leathers, has struggled with vast amounts of solid waste, the majority are fractions, such as shavings and splits offcuts, both containing chromium (Cr) free Cr. In this work, a novel leather waste-to-fertiliser approach been tested: four lightly processed (incubation effective microorganisms) three aggressively (using pyrolysis or hydrolysis processes) tanned waste fractions were used. They applied organic nitrogen-based fertilisers...
