Features: This book adheres to the principle of practicality, focusing on introducing the formulations of new environmentally friendly pulp, the prescriptions of new environmentally friendly dyes, the process flows of ecological technology processing, the process parameters of biological enzyme treatment for textiles, and new methods for ecological wastewater treatment. It also provides guidance for judging the biochemical properties of wastewater based on fiber ecological indices and the ecological evaluation values of textiles, for reference by users. The book is comprehensive in scope, rich in content, easy to understand, illustrated with visuals, highlights key points, and is highly practical, making it an accessible read on textile ecology. It is suitable for textile engineering technicians in schools and enterprises to refer to.
This book systematically introduces the fundamental theories of textile ecology, including: the ecological properties of textiles and fiber raw materials; ecological issues in textile, dyeing and finishing, and garment processing; the specific applications of biological enzyme technology in textile processing; the use of environmentally friendly raw materials, environmentally friendly dyes, and environmentally friendly auxiliaries; ecological treatment of waste textiles; and ecological management of textile wastewater. It covers both theory and practice, enabling readers to understand that textiles must possess excellent ecological properties—such as not harming human health, not polluting the ecological environment, being reusable, and not wasting resources. This is not achieved simply by using eco-friendly fibers or adopting one or two ecological process technologies. Ecological textile engineering emphasizes that the production process of textiles is a comprehensive systematic engineering.
This book is available for reference for engineering technicians engaged in textile and dyeing work, as well as faculty and students of textile colleges and universities.
