Abstract
Leather tanning industry, considered one of the polluting industries, poses various environmental threats to its every sphere. It produces various types of solid wastes as well as liquid wastes. Among the solid wastes, untanned raw trimmings contribute for about 5-7% of the total quantity of raw materials processed. If suitably utilized, these by-products of tanning industry could be a useful resource for various applications. This research work deals with utilization of raw trimmings of tannery solid waste to protein hydrolysate by acetic acid with varying acid concentration, acid solution, temperature and time. The maximum about 76% protein hydrolysate was obtained at 1.5M acid concentration and 80ºC.
