Application of Indigenous Plant-Based Vegetable Tanning Agent Extracted from Xylocarpus granatum in Semi-Chrome and Chrome Retanned Leather Production

Abstract: Environmental issues are nowadays the prime concern worldwide for leather industries due to chrome containing solid and liquid wastes generated from the tannery. Therefore, experts are being encouraged in exploring alternative tanning agents. This study aimed at applying a novel vegetable tanning agent extracted from Xylocarpus granatum barks for the production of semi-chrome (SC) and chrome retanned (CR) leathers to reduce chromium use. Characterization of the SC and CR leathers was performed by Fourier Trans… Show more

“…Tanning is the process by which animal hides are converted into leather (1,2), offering flexibility and immunity to bacterial attack as its main characteristics (3). Currently, the conventional tanning process uses chromium as the main input, accounting for 85-90% of leather manufacturing in terms of use (4,5,6). This implementation is due to its efficiency, versatility, availability and relatively inexpensive price (7) and, consequently, makes it one of the main pollutants of the tanning industry, causing considerable deterioration of ecosystems and human health (3,8).…”

“…Having said this, the importance of sheep in the agroindustrial sector can be determined for a potential application in the tannery industries, since these are in charge of treating animal skins (23), to avoid its putrefaction. In addition, several studies indicate that sheep hides can be used for the manufacture of gloves, shoes, bags and carpets (24,25,26); however, it is evident that the use of chromium salts in this industry has significant environmental consequences (12), especially because of the large volumes of water with organic and chemical waste that are discharged into bodies of water (6).…”

“…Considering the negative impact of chrome tanning, many researchers are exploring sustainable and green manufacturing processes by using alternative environmentally friendly chrome tanning processes or replacing chrome chemicals with vegetable tannins extracted from diferent parts of plants for leather industry [10,[20][21][22][23]. Application of vegetable tannin is considered to be cheap, ecofriendly, and sustainable and regarded as an alternative to chrome tanning [2,[24][25][26].…”
