Energy usage and cost in textile industry: A case study for Turkey
نویسنده
چکیده
The Turkish textile industry holds a relatively important position in the world and thus plays a major role in Turkey’s exports. Energy consumption is important for the textile industry in Turkey because it is the largest export sector. Energy usage in the textile industry in Turkey is inefficient, and energy consumption has been growing very rapidly due to population growth, rapid urbanization and industrial development. For future planning, it is important to know the current specific energy consumption (energy consumption/production) and the energy intensity (energy consumption/cost of energy) in order to estimate future energy consumption for the textile sector. In this study, a survey has been carried out to show energy consumption, energy cost and the relationship between the energy usage and textile production. The results of the energy survey have been presented in both figure and table form. q 2005 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
