Tannery wastewater containing chromium (Cr) is one of the most serious problems in leather
industry. In order to develop an effective and eco-friendly treatment technology, a combined …

BACKGROUND Effluents discharged from tannery industry contain significant amount of
chromium and synthetic dyes. Both chromium and dyes can be transformed individually into …

Tanning industry has been identified as a significant source of heavy metals; however,
heavy metals contamination in farmland soil due to small-scale tanning activities remains …

Hexavalent chromium (Cr-VI) is widely used in tanning industries, however, being highly
toxic metal, its accumulation in the animal body can adversely affect reproductive …

Two-stage sequential treatment of tannery effluent was conducted employing a wetland
plant, Spirodela polyrrhiza (L.) Schleid., and chromium (Cr) resistant bacterial strains. The …

Abstract Hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) is reported to have negative effects on fauna and
flora. The present study establishes plant‐bacterial synergism in floating wetlands (FWs) for …

Toxic metal reclamation from wastewaters using biotechnology has focused attention on a
variety of microbes and one such potential group is Cyanobacteria. Effluent water …
