Water-repellent, self-cleaning and stain resistant textiles are of interest for industrial applications. Anthraquinone reactive dyes were covalently grafted onto cotton fabric surfaces obtaining bright colors with good wash-fastness properties and giving rise to breathable superhydrophobic textiles with self-cleaning properties.

Abstract--Textile dying industry effluents are highly toxic in nature and it contains a large number of complex metal dyes. Many dyes used in textile industries are stable to light and resistant to aerobic digestion. Thus removal of coloured waste from industrial dye effluent is a most perplexing problem to such industries and the environment. On the other hand fly ash is a major pollutant gene...

In this data article, we introduce data acquired from new adsorbent, bi-metalized chitosan particle that is successfully synthesized and applied to remove the orange II dye, an azo dye, from textile wastewater. The adsorbent was meso- and macro-porous material with BET surface area of 12.69 m(2)/g and pHzpc 6.6. The simulated textile-wastewater can be significantly treated using a relatively lo...

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 (Fe3O<su...

Water pollution caused by industrial organic compounds is a serious global environmental problem. In some developing countries, the wastewater discharged from the textile industry is estimated to be more than one billion tons annually. The dyes in the discharge usually contain functional groups that could lead to high toxicity, i.e. the aromatic amine groups. Some dyes are resistant to light, h...

Considering both the volume and the effluent composition, the textile industry wastewater is rated as the most polluting among all industrial sectors. Important pollutants are present in textile effluents; they are mainly recalcitrant organics, colour, toxicants and inhibitory compounds (Khelifi et al., 2008). Textile industries however, have caused serious environmental problems because of the...

Jute is one of the available and cheap cellulosic fibers that can be printed used instead other materials may relatively high in price. bio-degradable raw therefore does not cause harm to environment along with advantages because its many advantages, it called golden fiber. Textile printing practice applying color distinct patterns or designs sharp outlines. Inappropriately fibers, tied fiber, ...

Dyes are recalcitrant compounds that resist conventional biological treatments. The degradation of three textile dyes (Indigo, RBBR and Sulphur Black), and the dye-containing liquid effluent and solid waste from the Municipal Treatment Station, Americana, São Paulo, Brazil, by the cyanobacteria Anabaena flos-aquae UTCC64, Phormidium autumnale UTEX1580 and Synechococcus sp. PCC7942 was evaluated...

Within an EU-funded research project, 281 textile dye products in use at nine textile finishing companies from eight European countries were assessed for potential mutagenic properties. Most of the dyes belonged to the so-called existing substances. Data sources considered were data published in the literature, unpublished industrial data provided by dye producing companies, and laboratory test...
