A Study on the Extraction of Collagen and Separation of Chrome Ion from Leather Waste

피혁 폐기물로부터 collagen 추출과 크롬이온 분리에 관한 연구

The objective of this study is to investigate the optimum conditions of extracting collagen without chrome ion from the leather waste. The effect of temperature, pH, and the concentration of alkaline solution on the collagen extraction has been studied. The result indicated that the incipient denatured temperature of collagen measured by viscosity was $25^{\circ}C$ and the complete denatured temperature was $31.5^{\circ}C$. The optimum solubilization condition for temperature was between $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, pH was 1.5, the concentration of alkaline solution was 3% of sodium hydroxide. The almost complete chrome ion separation was possible around the pH of 1.5. The separation efficiency of chrome ion from tannery waste was more than 99.5%. Extraction efficiency of crude protein from leather waste was about 89.5%. The hydroxyproline and collagen content in the extracted crude protein were 8.53% and 63.62%, respectively.

본 연구는 피혁 폐기물로부터 크롬 이온을 분리한 상태로 Collagen을 추출할 수 있는 최적 조건에 관한 것이다. Collagen 추출에 있어 온도, pH, 그리고 알칼리 용액 농도의 영향을 실험했다. 실험결과 점도측정에 의해 초기 변성온도는 $25^{\circ}C$, 완전 변성온도는 $31.5^{\circ}C$였다. Collagen 추출의 최적조건은 가용화 온도 $15^{\circ}C{\sim}20^{\circ}C$, pH 1.5, 알칼리 용액 3%였다. PH 1.5에서 크롬 이온이 거의 분리되었다. 탄닌 폐기물로부터 크롬 이온의 분리효율은 99.5% 이상이었다. 피혁 폐기물로부터 조단백질의 추출율은 89.%이었다. 추출된 조단백질내에 hydroxyprolne과 collagen의 함량은 각각 8.53%, 63.62%였다.
