Abstract
Sustainability in the textile industry is directly related to the disposal of waste which causes water and air pollution. Pollution is caused in each and every step of conversion of a basic element fibre to a product in the industry. For example, dyeing in the industry is the second most reason for polluting global water resources. The fashion textile industry contributes to 10% of global greenhouse gas emission and to 20% of waste water world-wide. The World Bank in 2019 observed that the textile industry was possibly polluting one fifth of global water. New technologies and the invention of synthetic fibres and dyes created enormous demand for textile products, but the industry failed to notice the impact of the huge waste generated and the methods for the disposal of such waste. This paper highlights the major sources of waste generation in the textile industry. The efficient management of the waste generated would lead to a sustainable textile industry.
