1. A method for chromium removal from post-tanning wastewater, comprising the following steps:
(a) mixing pretreated post-tanning wastewater with an induction reagent comprising a soluble metal salt to allow an induction reaction, wherein based on metal ions in the soluble metal salt, a mass of the induction reagent is 0.01% to 0.1% of a mass of the pretreated post-tanning wastewater; and
(b) adjusting a pH of a material obtained after the induction reaction to higher than 7.0 for precipitation.
