Abstract

Leather making is the process of converting raw hides into leather. Amounts of solid waste containing hazardous and high value components are generated during this process. Therefore, the elimination of the potential pollution and resource utilization of leather solid waste are the primary research hotspots. Herein, we comprehensively review the recent advances in the resource utilization of leather solid waste generated from chrome tanning including the utilization of tannery hair waste, untanned solid waste, chrome-containing leather solid waste, tannery sludge and finished leather waste, emphasizing on the general and novel utilization approaches. Finally, the remaining challenges and perspectives were summarized, in order to accelerate the development of resource utilization of leather solid waste.Graphical abstract
