Abstract

This study aimed to help reduce the lime fleshing solid waste problem by implementing utilization as feed for Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae. The BSF larvae were analyzed as a sample to determine whether it is safe to be eaten by other living species, especially catfish. The raw material used is lime fleshing cowhide waste from a leather tannery. The process included fermentation of lime fleshing waste with a formulation of waste: bran: water (8:1:2) for three days, hatching BSF larvae eggs for six days, and feeding fermented waste to BSF larvae (1000:1) for nine days, then baby BSF larvae dried, and BSF larvae were applied to catfish in a ratio (BSF larvae weight = 9: 5) for 12 days. Then, they analyzed the protein, calcium, and sulfur contents on the sample BSF larvae and catfish. We used the fermentation of lime fleshing waste with bran and water variables, which are well water, catfish pond water, and rice washing water, for three days. Then, hatching BSF larvae eggs for six days, BSF larvae cultivation for nine days, and application of the BSF larvae on catfish for 12 days. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA, then continued using the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The result of fermented lime fleshing waste was used on the BSF larvae, and the cultivation contents were analyzed for protein, calcium, and sulfur. The analysis result of the three variables has an average value of protein at around 6.06%, calcium at 0.041%, and sulfur at around 0.016%. The study concludes that BSF larvae, when combined with commercial feed and suitable formulation, could be an effective and efficient alternative feed for catfish while addressing the lime fleshing waste problem.

Abstract

Finishing is one of the stages in leather processing. The addition of silicone and crosslinker in the top coat of the finishing stage of leather upholstery furniture is used to increase abrasion resistance, which is a critical factor in determining the life and quality of leather furniture. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of silicone and crosslinker additions on the abrasion resistance and physical properties of leather upholstery furniture. The leather material used is dyed crust leather with a thickness of 1.2-1.4 mm with an area of 1.5 sqft. The addition of crosslinker and silicone is applied only to the top coat. The analyses performed include physical skin analysis (adhesion test, rubbing fastness, glossy test, and flexing) and organoleptic tests (abrasion and smoothness tests). The addition of crosslinker and silicone can affect the physical and organoleptic quality of leather. The addition of crosslinker and silicone to the top coat showed the best results on upholstery leather sample D (3% crosslinker and 4% silicone).The results of statistical tests using the multinomial logistic regression method in organoleptic testing and ANOVA in physical testing showed that only crosslinker had a significant effect on the response.

Abstract

Phenolic synthetic tanning agents (syntans) are widely used in the leather industry due to their controllable properties and consistent performance. This study aims to investigate the effect of phenol– formaldehyde molar ratio on the physicochemical properties of syntans synthesized via sulfonation. The syntans were prepared using various molar ratios (0:1, 0.5:1, 1:1, 1.5:1, 1:0.5, and 1:0) throughcondensation followed by sulfonation. The products were characterized in terms of pH, specific gravity, viscosity, degree of sulfonation (DS), and functional groups using FTIR spectroscopy. The results show that increasing phenol or formaldehyde concentration led to higher specific gravity and viscosity, indicating increased polymerization. The pH values ranged around ~4, confirming suitability for leather processing. The DS decreased with increasing phenol or formaldehyde concentration, suggesting competition between polymerization and sulfonation reactions. The optimal molar ratio (1:1) produced the most homogeneous and stable syntan system. The pH values of all syntans were consistently around ~4, indicating suitability for leather processing. Increasing phenol or formaldehyde concentration resulted in higher viscosity and specific gravity, while the degree of sulfonation decreased significantly, confirming the trade-off between polymerization and sulfonation reactions. In conclusion, the phenol–formaldehyde molar ratio significantly influences syntan properties by controlling the balance between polymerization and sulfonation. These findings provide a scientific basis for optimizing syntan formulation and improving efficiency in sustainable leather processing.

Abstract

Leather shaving waste (LSW) generated from the tannery industry contains chromium-stabilized collagen fibers that are environmentally persistent and difficult to manage. This study investigates the valorization of LSW into leather board for shoe insole applications through binder system engineering. LSW was neutralized using alkaline treatment and compounded with polyester resin and polyvinyl acetate (PVAc), followed by press molding. Mechanical properties and water absorption were evaluated according to SNI 1294-2009 standards. The results show that binder composition significantly influences interfacial adhesion, mechanical strength, and moisture sensitivity. Formulation F3 exhibited superior tensile and tear strength due to enhanced fiber–matrix bonding, while formulation F4 demonstrated improved water resistance. An Engineering Performance Index (EPI) was introduced to integrate mechanical strength and moisture stability, revealing a clear trade-off between maximum mechanical performance and durability against water absorption. Formulation F6 presented a more balanced mechanical–moisture profile suitable for practical insole applications. These findings confirm that binder engineering governs the structure–property relationship of collagen-based composites and provides a sustainable pathway for circular utilization of tannery solid waste.
