The consumption of fresh water by anthropogenic activities results in decreasing availability of fresh water. The major cause of water pollution is that water bodies are used as sinks for wastewater generated from domestic and industrial sources. Dyeing industry generate effluent that are rich in colorants and release into the environment which burgeons environmental issues also exacerbating human health. Colour removal from dyeing industry effluent has become a serious challenge due to the presence of synthetic dyes and till now there is no single method scouted which can aggrandize the process of treating coloured waste water. Effluents from dyeing industries contain higher concentrations of suspended solids that can be potentially toxic as they contain recalcitrant pollutant. This present article is a critical review presenting the causes and characteristics of wastewater generated. Also it incorporates different methods used for the decontamination of the effluents and highlighting those which involves biotechnological solution. A comparison between traditional methods and biotechnical solution and how the later one is more efficient is proven. Including a study of different microorganisms and enzymes able to degrade different dyes consummating the task. Keywords: Effluents, Textile Dyes, biotechnical methods, BOD, COD, TDS, TSS. I.

  • The Use of Glucose As Ecological Reducing Agent for Sulphur Dyes: Optimization of Experimental Conditions
    European Scientific Journal June 2014 edition vol.10, No.18 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 THE USE OF GLUCOSE AS ECOLOGICAL REDUCING AGENT FOR SULPHUR DYES: OPTIMIZATION OF EXPERIMENTAL CONDITIONS Romdhani Zouhaier Dhouib Sofiène Sakli Faouzi Laboratory of Textile Research, ISET of Ksar, Hellal, Monastir, Tunisia Abstract At the present time, dyeing of textile material requires the use of various auxiliaries. These used agents have adverse effects on the environment. In general, for the dyeing with sulphur dyes, a reducing agent is used to transform the dye molecule to a water soluble leuco form that can diffuse into the fibre. In this study, three reducing agents were used : the sodium sulphide, sodium dithionite and glucose as an environmentally friendly reducer. To compare their effect on the reduction of the sullphur dyestuff, the redox potential, pH and the colour yield (K/S) were measured according to the concentration of reducing agent and caustic soda concentration. Results of leuco sulphur black B reduction by the different reducing agents were evaluated by measuring the colour yield (K/S) and the brightness variation after the washing process. The obtained results showed that glucose can offer some scientifically results similar to those done with sodium sulphide which can give for the reduction of sulphur dyestuff Keywords: Sulphur dye, Dyeing, Reduction, Reducing Agent, Glucose Introduction Cellulosic substrates especially cotton, rayon, and paper, are very hydrophilic and, therefore, require hydrophilic soluble dyes for their coloration from a dye bath. Current dyes designed for cellulosic polymers are direct, vat, sulfur, and reactive dyes. Sulphur dyes are one of the less costs of all dye classes used on cellulosic fibres and their blends (Senior & Clarke, 1986).

  • ABSTRACT YI, DING. a Comparison of Mordant and Natural Dyes In
    ABSTRACT YI, DING. A Comparison of Mordant and Natural Dyes in Dyeing Cotton Fabrics. (Under the direction of Dr. Harold S. Freeman and Dr. Peter J. Hauser). Mordant dyes constitute a class of synthetic colorants that are applied to textile fibers mainly through the aid of transition metal ions such as Cr3+. The resultant dye-metal complexes are key to the fastness properties produced on wool. In the same way, most natural dyes require the use of a mordant to have coloring power on textiles such as cotton. Unlike mordant dyes on wool, the fastness properties of natural dyes on cotton are generally quite low. Consequently, they have largely been replaced by synthetic dyes that are more cost effective, brighter, and more durable under end-use applications. Interest in green technologies has led to renewed consideration of natural dyes for textile coloration because they are biodegradable and do not involve manufacturing processes requiring genotoxic aromatic amines. Interestingly, such a shift would bring dyeing technology full circle to a family of colorants lacking the vibrancy and technical properties of most synthetic dyes. However, similarities between the dyeing method for mordant and natural dyes brought to mind the potential for reducing the level of synthetic dyes used commercially by combining suitable dyes from these two classes for dyeing textiles. This thesis research was devoted to stage 1 of this idea, namely the evaluation of mordant dyes as colorants for cotton fabric. With this in mind, dyes such as Mordant Blue 13, Mordant Brown 40, Mordant Orange 6 and Mordant Yellow 8 were applied to cotton using various dyeing times, temperatures, dye bath concentrations and mordants.

  • K/S Shade Values by Wavelength for Typical 3.0 Gm/Lit Indigo Dye Set-Up
    ABSTRACT HOLBERT, JR., RICHARD MOORE. Empirical and Theoretical Indigo Dye Models Derived from Observational Studies of Production Scale Chain Rope Indigo Dye Ranges. (Under the direction of Peter Hauser, Warren Jasper, Jon Rust, and Richard Gould.) An observational study of production scale chain rope indigo dye ranges was conducted using 100% cotton open end spun yarns to confirm previously published dye trends, investigate the effects of dye range speed, and develop dye prediction models. To achieve these objectives, several milestones were identified and systematically addressed. A comprehensive laboratory preparation method was developed to ensure consistent yarn preparation. Equilibrium sorption experiments were conducted to determine the functional relationship between dye bath concentration and pH to indigo dye uptake in the cotton yarn. Additionally, the resulting shade from equilibrium sorption data was expanded to create an innovative method of quantitatively characterizing indigo penetration level of non-uniformly dyed yarns. The following dye range set-up conditions were recorded for each observational point: yarn count, number of dips, dye range speed, dwell length, nip pressure, dye bath indigo concentration, dye bath pH, dye bath reduction potential, and oxidation time. All observations were conducted after the dye range had been running for several hours and no feed rate adjustments were required. Later the following measurements were taken to determine each response variable state: total percent chemical on weight of yarn, percent of fixed indigo on weight of yarn, and Integ shade value. Analysis of data from the observational study confirmed most previously published dye trends relating to dye uptake, shade, and penetration level. Notably, the percent indigo on weight of yarn as a function of dye bath pH was not confirmed.

PROCESS FLOW FOR DENIM MANUFACTURING The warp yarn (length-wise) used in denim fabrics is uniquely prepared for denim manufacturing compared to conventional woven fabrics. The yarn goes through numerous processing steps before it is placed on the weaving machine. Unlike the warp yarn, most filling yarn (width-wise) is put onto yarn packages and delivered directly to the weaving machine where it is inserted into the fabric without any further preparation in the same manner as conventional woven fabrics. The following flow chart reveals the necessary steps in the manufacture of denim fabrics, beginning with the production of the warp yarns used.

  • Textile Dyeing
    TEXTILE DYEING ® ® 1 Textile Dyeing 1.0 Introduction Color is an extremely important aspect of modern textiles. The color of a textile product is a major factor in the marketing and use of that product. The color of textiles can be used to differentiate groups of people such as uniforms used for athletic teams, hospital personnel or military organizations. Color can also be functional such as camouflage or protective uniforms. However, in the modern retail store, the color of textile products is a major contributor to what is referred to as fashion. The color is very important with apparel, carpet, upholstery, curtains, drapes, sheets and towels. All of the items are marketed with an emphasis on their specific color. 1.1 Textile Coloration Dyeing is the application of color to a textile material with some degree of fastness or permanence. The materials which impart the color are known as colorants. When these colorants have a natural affinity and permanence on textiles, they are referred to as dyes. Dyes actually migrate or diffuse into the chemical molecular structure of textile fibers in order to develop the final color of the textile product. The dye-fiber molecular association is also responsible for the degree of fastness or permanence of the color because of the molecular attraction between the specific dye and the specific textile fiber; dyes are classified as being fiber specific. That is, dyes which work on cotton will not work on polyester, nylon, acrylic, wool and many other commonly used textile fibers. However, because the basic structure of cotton is cellulose, the dyes which work on cotton will also work on other cellulose based fibers such as linen, ramie, rayon and lyocell.
