Dyeing technologies for the future

摘要

WATER scarcity and increased environmental awareness are world-wide concerns which are causing a sharp rise in prices for intake and disposal of water. The textiles industry is also one of the biggest consumers of water with conventional textile dyeing using large amounts of fresh water which is disposed of as waste water containing dyestuff chemicals. The Pollution Control Board in India has become also very strict. Tirupur Processing units are all closed. Bhilwara process units are also under terrible pressure maintaining the zero-discharge notification. Vapi, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Jetpur, Pali, Surat, Bhiwandi are also under pressure to follow the strict norms.
