BACKGROUND Tannery workers are at considerable risk of developing occupational contact dermatitis. Occupational skin diseases in tannery workers in newly industrialized countries have been reported, but neither the prevalence of occupational allergic contact dermatitis nor the skin-sensitizing agents were specifically examined in those studies. OBJECTIVES To assess the prevalence of occupatio...

A new multibranch Integrated Catchment (INCA) model INCA-Metals has been developed to simulate the impact of tannery discharges on river systems. The accounts for key chemical reaction kinetic processes operating as well sedimentation, resuspension, dilution, mixing and redistribution pollutants in rivers downstream discharge points mine or acid rock drainage sites. is dynamic simulates daily b...

The emerging environmental problem in the tanning industry is disposal of chromium-contaminated sludge soil. In Walajapet Taluk Vellore District, distribution and mobility chromium soils surrounding tannery waste region were explored. This paper presents soil contamination agricultural lands located SIPCOT Industrial complex near India. 64 samples collected from 15 different villages, analyzed ...

River water quality is influenced by several factors, one of then caused industrial waste discharged into river bodies. Effluent bodies contains heavy metals, pungent odours, and makes the colour in cloudy. purpose study examined effect tannery effluent distance on Gandong Magetan Regency. Benefits For company As a consideration to maximize WWTP processing actions so as not pollute environment....

In the present study, impact of tannery and other industrial effluents on the physico-chemical characteristics of loamy drain water and their consequent impact on soil and plants irrigated with effluent have been studied. The study reveals most of the parameter pH, BOD5 and COD at sampling station I was higher than station II. Waste water quality at both Stations I and II exceeded prescribed li...
