Tannins contain positively charged organic compounds with a long polymer chain and can be used as a natural coagulant for industrial wastewater treatment. Tannin is a class of pollutant recognized by its ability to precipitate pollutants of protein

It is reported in the literature that several treatment applications such as coagulation and electrocoagulation, Fenton, photo-Fenton and Electro-Fenton reaction, ozonation-based advanced oxidation processes, adsorption and ion exchange have been applied to leachate.
