Leather Industry Waste Management for Architectural Design
The leather and footwear cluster in Tungurahua state has a main role in the country’s production chain, supplying 76% of the country’s tanned hides for the textile, footwear, and furniture industries, among others. The processes involved in leather tanning generate liquid, gaseous, and solid waste, the latter including the shavings from the leather trimming process, which, due to their composition and volume, are compressed and disposed of in sanitary landfills. Through Strategic Design and circular processes, as axes of change in production, new processes and strategies are established for the creation of products derived from the reuse of tannery waste; as a result, a decorative block is obtained for the design of architectural spaces with dimensions of 150 × 75 × 355 mm, 300 g in weight, and a compressive strength of 15.72 MPa. This is subjected to physicochemical tests for its validation.
