Industrial tannery effluent samples from Mamuda TanneryIndustries in ChallawaIndustrial estate, Kano State, Nigeria were collectedfor a period of six months (August 2017to January 2018) for the experiment. Bacteria wereisolated from the effluents using Serial Dilution, immobilized on agar-agar and biochemical tests were carriedout to identify the bacteria. Different masses (5g, 10g, 15g, 20g, and 25g) of the identified bacteria were usedin the treatment of 250 ml ofthe effluents. Temperature, pH, BOD,COD, SS, TDS, Sulphate (SO42-), Phosphate (PO43-), Nitrate (NO3-), Chloride (Cl-)and some heavy metals (Cr, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn,Cd, and Cu) were determined before andafter treatment of the effluents with the bacteria. The pre-treatment analysisshowed that the values, 29.50±4.68, and 5.35±1.57 were observed fortemperature (OC) and the pH respectively. The levels (mg/l), 26.17±9.49; 3106±2753; 562±482; 444±507; 97.20±146.80; 268.34±411.01; 8.82±34.71 and 22.59±19.64wereobserved for BOD, COD, SS, TDS, Nitrate, sulphates, Phosphate, Chlorides respectively. The concentration(mg/l) of the heavy metals, before treatment (with the bacteria) were as; Cr (7.528±4.530); Fe (1.263±0.502); Ni(0.023 ±0.021); Mn (0.277± 0.03); Pb (0.304 ±0.20); Zn (0.058± 0.05); Cd (0.068±0.02) and Cu (0.012 ±0.02).The bacteria were identified to be Corynebacterium Kutsceri. The post-treatmentanalysis showed that the mean levels(mg/l) of BOD ranged from (0.58b±0.45−0.81±0.67); COD (1376±248−2681±867);SS(78±89−273±375);TDS(25b±15−27±16);NO3−(14.43±8.88−26.52±13.06);SO42−(5.95±8.91−18.12±19.26);PO43−(1.76±2.64−2.10±3.00);Cl−(5.54±4.66−12.90±18.39);Cr(3.048±2.70−5.416±4.07);Fe(0.310±0.20−0.732±0.11);Ni(0.077±0.06−0.172±0.05);Mn(0.003±0.01−0.015±0.01);Pb(0.082±0.11−0.1580.20);Zn (0.028±0.03-0.048±0.04);Cd (0.050±0.02−0.063±0.02)and Cu (ND −0.007±0.00).The post-treatment analysis using the different masses ofthe Corynebacterium Kutsceri indicates that there is a greatdecrease in the levels of the physicochemical parameters and the heavy metalsas well when compared with the levels observed at the pre-treatment analysis.The decrease could be attributed to, not only dueto the increase in the exact mass of the bacteria but also to themultiplicity in the mass of the Corynebacterium Kutsceriwhich subsequently increases the surface area for the remediation. The averagehigh percentage reduction (70% to 100%) of these parameters and heavy metalsimplies that the Corynebacterium Kutsceri has a higher potential forthe treatment of effluents from thetextile industries.
