| Abstract | A general overview on the prospective of various oxidation and combined processes in the treatment of tannery industry effluent are reported. Various oxidation and combined processes such as UV/H2O2/Hypochlorites, Fenton and Electro-oxidation, photo-chemical, photo-catalytic, electro-catalytic oxidation, wet air oxidation, ozonation, biological followed by ozone/UV/H2O2, coagulation or electro-coagulation and catalytic treatments have been considered. The tannery wastewater with sulphide as main sources of pollutant, electro-coagulation is the best removal efficiency process among the other oxidation processes, whereas for chromium, photo catalytic oxidation process using nano-TiO2 and wet air oxidation in the presence of manganese sulphate and activated carbon as a catalyst are more efficiency processes. The integrated combined processes described permit to meet disposal limits, health quality standards and the recovery of several chemicals utilized in the tanneries. |
