Utilizing aluminum etching wastewater for tannery wastewater coagulation: performance and feasibility

The main objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of utilizing etching wastewater (EW) of aluminum (Al) coating industry as an alum substitute in industrial wastewater treatment. Our hypothesis was that Al-rich EW could be an effective substitute for commercial liquid alum used in...
