AbstractList An increasing amount of waste is generated each year from textiles and their production.For economic and environmental reasons it is necessary that as much of this waste as possible is recycled instead of being disposed of in landfill sites.In reality the rate of textile recycling is still relatively low.
An increasing amount of waste is generated each year from textiles and their production. For economic and environmental reasons it is necessary that as much of this waste as possible is recycled instead of being disposed of in landfill sites. In reality the rate of textile recycling is still relatively low. On average, approximately ten million tonnes of textile waste is currently dumped in Europe and America each year. Considering the diversity of fibrous waste and structures, many technologies must work in concert in an integrated industry in order to increase the rate of recycling. Recycling in textiles shows how this can be achieved.The first part of the book introduces the subject by looking at the general issues involved and the technologies concerned. Part Two explores the chemical aspects of textile recycling. Part Three focuses on recycled textile products, including nonwovens and alternative fibres. Finally, the last part of the book discusses possible applications of recycled textiles, including using recycled products in the operating theatre, for soil stabilisation and in concrete reinforcement.Recycling in textiles presents several promising technologies and ideas for recycling systems. This is the first book of its kind to bring together textile recycling issues, technology, products, processes and applications. It will prove an invaluable guide to all those in the industry who are now looking for ways to recycle their textile waste. Provides extensive coverage of this hot topicAn invaluable guide for all in the textile industryLearn how to increase the rate of recycling
An increasing amount of waste is generated each year from textiles (including carpets and clothing) and their production. For economic and environmental reasons it is necessary that as much of this waste as possible is recycled instead of being disposed in landfill sites. On average approximately 10 million tonnes of textile waste is currently dumped in Europe and America each year.Recycling in textiles is the first book of its kind to bring together textile recycling issues, technology, products, processes and applications for all of those in the industry who are now looking for ways to recycle their textile waste.
