Highlights!!!

•Inexpensive waste and low temperature treatment for novel photocatalysts synthesis.
•Cr₂O₃/C materials from leather skin waste with high potential as photocatalyst.
•High Cr-based catalyst stability in aqueous phase phenol photomineralization.
•Pollutants abatement in water by photocatalysts made from leather industry wastes.
