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.
