    This study allowed to demonstrate that the application of techniques such as filtration and the use of aquatic plants (lechugin) could be used to reduce pollutants in wastewater from tanneries. So the implementation of filtration in crusting process decreased the sediments (97.8%) and DQO (37.16%), and the lechugin in tanning reduced at higher DBO5. (65.2%), hexavalent chromium (57.37%), suspended solids (44.86%), DQO (41.025%), and total chromium (38.37%). However it was not able to decrease enough to satisfy the standard TULAS, suggesting the need for further studies that allow to optimize or complement what has been demonstrated in this research. Clarifying that the methodology may not be suggested since it is incomplete, it would need an additional method of wastewater management.
