Abstract—Various exterior factors have perpetual effects on textile materials during wear, use and laundering in everyday life. In accordance with their frequency of use, textile materials are required to be laundered at certain intervals. The medium in which the laundering process takes place have inevitable detrimental physical and chemical effects on textile materials caused by the unique pa...

Many metallic structural and non-structural parts used in the transportation industry can be replaced by textile-reinforced composites. Composites made from a polymeric matrix and fibrous reinforcement have been increasingly studied during the last decade. On the other hand, the fast development of smart textile structures seems to be a very promising solution for in situ structural health moni...

The textile industry is one of the industries that generate a high volume of waste water. Strong colour of the textile waste water is the most serious problem of the textile waste effluent. The disposal of these wastes into receiving water causes damage to the environment. With regard to their colour removal by conventional treatment methods lead to severe water pollution, thus developing cost ...

Activated Carbon (TPAC) of high adsorption capacities and highly active surface properties were prepared from Thevetia peruviana by physical and chemical processes such as direct pyrolysis, dolomite process, Chemical activation with H2SO4 + H2O2, impregnation of raw material with Conc. H2SO4, KOH, ZnCl2 and H3PO4 solution respectively followed by activation at 800oC. Adsorption capacity of acti...

in this research we have developed a treatment method for textile wastewater by tio2/sio2-based magnetic nanocomposite. textile wastewater includes a large variety of dyes and chemicals and needs treatments. this manuscript presents a facile method for removing dyes from the textile wastewater by using tio2/sio2-based nanocomposite (fe3o4@sio2/tio2) under uv irradiation. this magnetic nanocompo...

Climate change makes people to be aware about the environmental pollutions in aspect of Air, Water and Soil components. The environmentally aware countries have forced the other countries to implement the stringent effluent standards for disposal into water stream / water bodies. Hence, modern technology like the application of membrane separation (Micro or Ultra filtration) technique with biol...

Bacterial consortia BMP1 (containing six isolates), BMP2 (three isolates) and BBP (three isolates) were isolated from textile affected soil, sludge and effluent of Hudiara drain in vicinity of Nishat Mills Limited 5Km Off 22Km Ferozepur Road Lahore, Pakistan. These consortia were capable of degrading red, green, black and yellow dyes and were resistant to heavy metals (Cu, Cd, Cr, Ni, Mn & Pb)....
