Sustainable Innovations in the Textile Industry

Sustainable Innovations in the Textile Industry addresses advances taking place at every stage of the textile value chain that are leading to improvements in sustainability and resource efficiency. It contains comprehensive coverage of the complete textile process sequence, including fiber to textile manufacture and wet processing techniques, such as dyeing, printing, finishing, coating and cleaning. In addition, it also provides the latest industry knowledge on technological advances in textile machinery, supply chain, recycling, effluent discharge, and other innovations that enhance sustainability. This holistic approach is required to effectively address the sustainability issue, which requires action across the value chain.Having included historical aspects of sustainability in textiles as well as the state of the art in innovative fibers, chemicals and manufacturing processes, this book is essential reading for anyone interested in sustainable directions in the textile industry. Emphasizes innovative production technologies, the biotransformation of the textile industry, the circular economy, recycling, and the green future of textilesAddresses sustainability in business and logistics, explaining how these functions influence the environmental impact of other stages of the value chainProvides a guide to the eco-labels and assessment methods used by industry INDICE: 1 Sustainable innovations in textiles2 Production and processing of natural fibres3 Innovations in man-made and synthetic fibres4 Innovations in spinning processes and machinery5 Innovations in weaving, knitting and nonwoven machinery6 Innovations in woven textiles7 Innovations in knitted textiles8 Innovations in nonwoven textiles9 Innovations in dyes and chemoinformatics approach10 Speciality chemicals, enzymes and finishes11 Innovations in textile wet processing machinery12 Innovations in textile pretreatments13 Dyeing, printing and digital colouration14 Functional finishing and smart coating15 Garment machinery and manufacturing sustainability16 Sustainable textile care and maintenance17 Supply chain and logistics of fashion business18 Closed-loop postconsumer textile recycling19 Textile effluent treatment and recycling20 Sustainability aspects, LCA and ecolabels
