Consorzio Aquarno handle industrial sewage treatment in the district of tanneries based in Santa Croce sull’ Arno. Andrea Giachi, Research & Development supervisor at the consortium, tells us about circular activities running in the Tuscan plant. In addition to sewage sludge treatment, they also work on the recovery and recycling of chromium in the tanneries manufacturing process. While speaking to us, Giachi explains the way Aquarno are striving to implement the enhancement of industrial scraps “both for energy recycling and matter recycling, in order to prevent their discharge in the environment”.
