The article presents results of investigation concerning an influence of tannery wastewater composition on chromium(III) concentration in the wastewaters during the nanofiltration process (NF). The effectiveness of this process strongly depends on mutual relation between chloride and sulfate ions concentration in tannery wastewater. For this reason, the optimum composition of the tannery wastewater should consist chloride/sulfate ions ratio close to 1. Moreover, an influence of transmembrane pressure (TMP) and the “ageing” of chromium tannery wastewater on the efficiency of the process has been investigated. Optimal range of TMP equal to 14–16bar has been assumed for the process. It is necessary to point out that the optimum transmembrane pressure can be changed in the case of the membranes with different permeation properties. “Ageing” of the tannery wastewater reduces only a little an efficiency of the process. Experimental results demonstrated that the NF process could be successfully used for the concentration of chromium in the tannery wastewater with high permeate flux, selectivity and performance stability.
