Identification of manufacturing processes which are causing problems in each subsector and quantification of environmental impacts. OUTPUT O.5.2: Documented analysis in environmental legislation in each country. OUTPUT O.5.3: Documented analysis of entities specialized in textile. SUSTEXNET - SUITANABLE TEXTILE MEDITERRANEAN NETWORK 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Output 5.1 (Documented analysis in each subsector - manufacturing processes and problems), Output 5.2 (Documented analysis in environmental legislation) and Output 5.3 (Documented analysis of entities specialized in textile) have been achieved at the same time and with the same work done by all partners. Each couple of partners from each country -Spain, Italy, Tunisia and Egypt- were committed to develop an accurate analysis of the main technical/economic/social problems of its own textile sector, in order to detect technological / economic / environmental / social gaps to be covered along the value chain at local, regional and multi-country level. The most useful method to reach these outputs was a whole analysis per country that included all the issues to be considered. This analysis was structured as follows: A.5.1. METHODOLOGIES FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTICS IN SPINNING/WEAVING PROCESSES. A.5.2. METHODOLOGIES FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTICS IN DYEING/PRINTING/FINISHING PROCESSES. A.5.3. METHODOLOGIES FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTICS IN LOGISTIC AND DISTRIBUTION NETWORKS (These chapters generated O.5.1). A5.4. STUDY OF ENVIRONMENTAL LEGISLATION IN EACH AREA AND ESTABLISHMENT OF COMMON VALUES OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT (These chapter generated O.5.2). A5.5. STUDY OF EDUCATION, TRAINING AND TECHNOLOGICAL ENTITIES SPECIALIZED IN TEXTILE FIELDS IN EACH AREA, AND METHODOLOGIES FOR OPTIMIZING/INCREASE WORKING FORCE RESOURCES (These chapter generated O.5.3). This document collects 4 country analysis which are considered O5.1, O.5.2. and O.5.3. The collected and analyzed information and the 4 analysis (one per country) were also the basis for the further O5.4 (1 Report of methodology: Protocol or guide about methodology for diagnosis). 2 CONTENTS 1.

METHODOLOGY FOR FUTHER DIAGNOSIS IN SPINNING and WEAVING PROCESSES 1. RAW MATERIALS. The main raw materials in spinning / weaving sector in Spain are: - Cotton - Regenerated cotton - Wool - Rayon - Polyester - Polyamide - Acrylic - Elastane Here are the main traits of all of them, emphasizing paragraphs concerning their relationship with the environment (environmental impact, biodegradability, carbon footprint). NATURAL FIBERS 1.1. COTTON. 1.1.1. Properties. Cotton is a natural vegetable fiber with huge economic importance as a raw material for manufacturing textiles and clothing. The widespread use is largely due to the ease which the fiber can be braided in strands. The strength, absorbency and ease of washed and dyed also contribute to use cotton in the manufacture of a wide variety of textiles. 3 WP5 - IDENTIFICATION TECHNOLOGICAL/ECONOMIC/SOCIAL PROBLEMS Figure 1.- Cotton plant. 1.1.2. Source. Cotton is produced by a number of trees and shrubs belonging to the family of Malvaceae, which also includes the Hibiscus plants. When de cocoon develops, it is transformed into an oval ball which opens and discovers numerous black and brown seeds covered in a mass of white hairs. When they fully mature and dry, each of the hairs is a cell, flattened, with a sharp kink spiral and attached to a seed. The individual fiber length is between 1.3 and 6 cm. In addition, other shorter fibers also born from seeds. 1.1.3. Environmental impact. Although cultivation occupies only 2.4 % of the world's arable land, it consumes 16 % of insecticides. It is one of the most intensive crops where a large number of herbicides, defoliants and chemical fertilizers are also used. The environmental impact is huge and affects not only the communities that grow it but many neighboring areas and even away from the production areas. This is increased by the fact that cotton is mainly grown in poor countries or emerging economies where the situation in rural areas is still of great poverty. In Spain the situation is not much different although treatments are reduced and we can find maximum of up to 7 insecticide applications, a few of growth regulators and a couple of defoliants. And this is true regardless of herbicides treatments and chemical fertilizers. Moreover, insecticides such as parathion or adicarb, which are used very often, have been declared particularly problematic to human health by the WHO. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers seven of the 15 most widely used 4 WP5 - IDENTIFICATION TECHNOLOGICAL/ECONOMIC/SOCIAL PROBLEMS insecticides in cotton cultivation in this country as "possible", "probable" or "known" carcinogens (acephate, dichloropropene, diuron, fluometuron, pendimentalin, tribufos and trifuralin). We also should highlight the effects of climate change and greenhouse effect of nitrous oxide NO, 150 times more potent than famous CO2 (some scientists say up to 300 times more potent) because of its stability when it arrives at the troposphere. Cotton is a plant that has

  • 26. Dry Finishing of Wool Fabrics
    26. Dry Finishing of Wool Fabrics Mike Pailthorpe Learning objectives By the end of this lecture, you should be able to: • Describe the various methods that are available for the drying of wool fabrics. • Understand the need for conditioning wool fabrics after drying. • Outline the methods used in the brushing of wool fabrics. • Describe the process of shearing. • Outline the principles involved in the decatising of wool fabrics. • Explain the need for the steaming of wool fabrics. Key terms and concepts Drying, conditioning, raising, shearing, singeing, pressing, decatising, steaming, perching. Introduction The so called dry finishing processes for wool fabrics follow on after hydroextraction and scutching, beginning with drying. One of the objects in wool fabric finishing is to dry the fabric only once, thereby making substantial energy savings. Drying is the process of removing water from wool textiles via the application of heat energy. The three methods of transferring heat energy from one object to another are conduction, convection and radiation. However, for a variety of reasons, convection dryers are preferred for wool fabrics, with the stenter being the most widely used drying machine. After drying the wool fabrics must be conditioned to a regain of 14-16% before further processing. Depending upon the finish required, the wool fabrics may then either be shorn to remove surface fibres or brushed to create a pile of surface fibres. The brushed pile may be shorn to cut the pile fibres to a uniform height or to achieve a sculptured pattern. The wool fabrics are then pressed using either flat, rotary or belt presses to achieve the desired appearance, lustre and handle characteristics.

  • Denim – Construction and Common Terminology
    Denim – Construction and Common Terminology Denim Construction Denim is made from rugged tightly woven twill, in which the weft passes under two or more warp threads. Lengthwise, yarns are dyed with indigo or blue dye; horizontal yarns remain white. The yarns have a very strong twist to make them more durable, but this also affects the denim’s color. The yarns are twisted so tightly that the indigo dye usually colors only the surface, leaving the yarns center white. The blue strands become the threads that show on the outside of your denim, and the white are the ones that make the inside of your denim look white. This produces the familiar diagonal ribbing identifiable on the reverse of the fabric. Through wear, the indigo yarn surface gives way, exposing the white yarn underneath which causes denim to fade. Jeans are basic 5 pockets pants, or trousers, made from denim. The word comes from the name of a sturdy fabric called serge, originally made in Nimes, France. Originally called serge de Nimes (fabric of Nimes), the name was soon shortened to denim (de Nimes). Denim was traditionally colored blue with natural indigo dye to Black denim make blue Jeans, though “jean” then denoted a different, lighter cotton textile; the contemporary use of jean comes from the French word for Genoa, Italy, where the first denim trousers were made. Jeans transcend age, economic and style barriers. Washes, embellishments, leg openings and labels fluctuate with fashion whims, but jeans themselves have reached iconic status. Cross hatch denim Common terminology used in Denim fabric construction and processing ANTI-TWIST is a step in the finishing process, before sanforization, that corrects denim’s natural tendency to twist in the direction of the diagonal twill weaves.

    APPENDIX I INTRODUCTORY NOTES TO THE LIST IN ANNEX II Note 1 — General introduction This Annex lays down under which products shall be considered to originate in the beneficiary country concerned. There are four different types of rule, which vary according to the product: (a) through working or processing a maximum content of non-originating materials is not exceeded; (b) through working or processing the 4-digit Harmonized System heading or 6-digit Harmonized System sub-heading of the manufactured products becomes different from the 4-digit Harmonized System heading or 6-digit sub-heading respectively of the materials used; (c) a specific working and processing operation is carried out; (d) working or processing is carried out on certain wholly obtained materials. Note 2 — The structure of the list 2.1 Columns 1 and 2 describe the product obtained. Column 1 gives the chapter number, 4-digit heading or 6-digit sub-heading number used in the Harmonized System, as appropriate. Column 2 gives the description of goods used in that system for that heading or chapter. For each entry in columns 1 and 2, subject to Note 2.4, one or more rules ("qualifying operations") are set out in column 3. These qualifying operations concern only non-originating materials. Where, in some cases, the entry in column 1 is preceded by "ex", this signifies that the rule in column 3 applies only to the part of that heading as described in column 2. 2.2 Where several Harmonized System headings or sub-headings are grouped together in column 1 or a chapter number is given and the description of products in column 2 is therefore given in general terms, the adjacent rule in column 3 applies to all products which, under the Harmonized System, are classified in headings of the chapter or in any of the headings or sub-headings grouped together in column 1.

Of Costume Design and Fashion Sri Krishna Arts and Science College, Coimbatore (India) Corresponding Author: Ms.N.Gayathri Abstract: The Indian textile industry is as diverse as the country is and as complex an entity. There is an organised, decentralised sector and down the line, there are weavers, artisans as well as the farmers. Emerging technologies will always be the best available technologies keeping energy saving in mind as policy makers and regulators are addressing environmental issues in industries with the application of abatement strategy. This will improve the environmental performance of the industries and also limits pollutant discharges and helps the environment. Textile producers can sustain their competitiveness in a liberalised and competition-driven market only when they are able to develop new markets and enhance productivity by raising their real end product and investing in emerging technology. Added value can be obtained only by shifting away from labour-intensive mass products and concentrating on new, high-quality specialised products.
