Incineration of tannery waste in a tunnel furnace system

Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 10

Abstract

The leather industry generates significant amounts of waste for which there is not comprehensive treatment method. Such waste is mainly landfilled, which is an environmental threat. However, solid tannery waste could be incinerated since it contains organic matter. This paper describes research on the incineration of solid tannery waste which was conducted on an experimental installation with a tunnel furnace as the main component. The paper includes brief characteristics of tannery waste and the experimental installation overview. Further on, the experimental conditions as well as measurements and residue analysis results are presented.<br/><br/>
