Treatment of Chroma from Tannery Effluent by Flocculant

Abstract:

The chroma in tannery effluent was treated by prepared flocculant at different conditions. The results showed that the suitable reaction conditions were attained at a normal temperature, pH of 8, flocculant of 0.2 g/L when the shaking speed of 150 r/min and the reaction time was 15 min. Through testing the saccharide and protein in the flocculant, it was found that the flocculant contained saccharide and protein. These may contribute to the application of the flocculant to chroma removal in tannery effluent.
