Abstract

Tannery wastewater contains high concentrations of pollutants, mostly sulfides, which are usually chemically removed by expensive and inefficient methods. Biological methods, based on sulfuroxidizing bacteria activity, have been proven to be more convenient, but are still poorly used. In the frame of the BIOSUR project (LIFE11 ENV/IT/075), a reactor was set up and developed in order to explore the sulfur-oxidizing potential of primary and biological sludge biomasses in a tannery wastewater treatment plant.
