Turning tannery waste into fuel
Tamil Nadu will be home to one of the world’s
first bio-refineries which will use solid waste generated from tanneries in the
Vellore district.
The Central Leather Research
Institute (CLRI) in Chennai, a unit of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) have succeeded in developing a bio-refinery which will produce
biodiesel, bioethanol, biohydrogen and biomethane.
‘With this biorefinery we will ensure that tanneries across the country
do not discharge any kind of solid waste. There will not be any waste to be
discharged because we will use it as raw materials’, Palani Shanmugam, the CLRI
scientist who designed the refinery told DNA.
