RESUMOO processo de transformação de pele em couro gera um expressivo volume de efluente, emissões atmosféricas e de resíduos sólidos. Dependendo dos insumos e principalmente do curtente utilizado, o curtimento pode gerar resísuos perigosos. É o caso dos processos que utilizam o óxido cromo como curtente. Estima-se que 90% dos curtumes utiliza o óxido de cromo em função do seu custo benefício. Visando reduzir o envio de resíduo de couro wet-blue para aterros de resíduos perigosos, este trabalho tem como objetivo propor um método que permite reduzir a concentração de cromo do resíduo. O estudo compreendeu as seguintes etapas: 1) caracterização físico-química do resíduo wet-blue; 2) testes de hidrólise em fulões piloto com emprego de ácido cítrico, variando relação cromo:ácido, pH e método de lavagem; 3) caracterização físico química do colágeno hidrolisado e do banho residual do processo de hidrólise. Os resultados obtidos revelaram que a hidrólise com ácido cítrico possibilitou uma redução de até 87,35% do cromo presente no resíduo de wet-blue e resultou na geração de dois produtos: um material sólido colagênico rico em nitrogênio e com potencial de ser utilizado como fonte de nutrientes para plantas, como matéria prima para produção de adesivo ou adsorvente, e um efluente de coloração escura com pH baixo e com aproximadamente 500 mg.Cr.L-1 com possibilidade de ser reaproveitado no processo de curtimento. Assim, o estudo demonstrou uma alternativa tecnológica para o tratamento de resíduos de wet-blue, possibilitando o reaproveitamento de materiais que seriam descartados em aterros de resíduos perigosos.Palavras-chave: Descromagem.

Depending on the inputs and mainly the tanner used, tanning can generate dangerous residues. This is the case of processes that use chromium oxide as a tanner. It is estimated that 90% of tanneries use chromium oxide due to its cost benefit. Aiming to reduce the shipment of wet-blue leather waste to hazardous waste landfills, this work aims to propose a method that allows reducing the chromium concentration of the waste. The study comprised the following steps: 1) physical chemical characterization of wet-blue waste; 2) hydrolysis tests on pilot drums using citric acid, varying the chromium: acid ratio, pH and washing method; 3) physical and chemical characterization of the hydrolyzed collagen and the residual bath of the hydrolysis process. The results obtained revealed that the hydrolysis with citric acid allowed a reduction of up to 87.35% of the chromium present in the wet-blue residue and resulted in the generation of two products: a solid collagen material rich in nitrogen and with the potential to be used as source of nutrients for plants, as raw material for the production of adhesive or adsorbent and a dark colored effluent with low pH and approximately 500 mg.Cr.L-1 with the possibility of being reused in the tanning process. Thus, the study demonstrated a technological alternative for the treatment of wet-blue waste, enabling the reuse of materials that would be disposed of in hazardous waste landfills.Keywords:  Acid Hydrolysis.

ABSTRACT A protein isolated from ovine pituitary glands has been purified, and its homogeneity assessed by NH2- and COOH-terminal amino acid determination, ultracentrifugation studies, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after carboxymethylation. Its chemical and immunochemical properties are closely similar to those of beef and pork neurophysins, less similar to those of human neurophysins. It contains no tryptophan (like other neurophysins) or histidine (like all except bovine neurophysin-I and human neurophysins). It has alanine at the NH2-terminus and valine at the COOH-terminus. Its amino acid composition is similar to, but not identical with those of porcine and bovine neurophysins.
