Hydrothermal pretreatment of cotton textile wastes: Biofuel characteristics and biochar electrocatalytic performance

Yanling Zhao et al.

Summary: In this study, waste cotton textiles were hydrothermally treated to obtain bio-crude oil and biochar. The bio-crude oil contained various compounds, while the biochar had a high heating value and low oxygen content, making it suitable for use as a solid biofuel. Additionally, using the biochar as an electrocatalytic material significantly improved the hydrogen evolution reaction activity.

The first mile problem in the circular economy supply chains-Collecting recyclable textiles from consumers

Lauri Jaamaa et al.

Summary: This paper addresses the first mile problem in circular economy supply chains, focusing on the collection of used materials from individual consumers. The study proposes a model for collecting end-of-life textiles that considers their unique features and the limited resources of collector organizations. By interviewing key experts and constructing a data analysis model, the study provides insights into efficient textile waste collection and quantitatively models a circular economy problem. The practical contribution lies in the urgent need for textile collection solutions and the study's approach to modeling a problem with multiple uncertainties.

Valorization of Waste Feathers in the Production of New Thermal Insulation Materials

Elena Dieckmann et al.

Summary: Poultry has become a major source of dietary protein globally, leading to an increase in the by-product feathers as industrial waste. This paper focuses on developing a circular economy for feathers by utilizing their unique properties to create novel thermal insulation materials. Results show that air laid feather-fibre fabrics have comparable performance to other fibrous materials with a low thermal conductivity, offering improved sustainability credentials.

Sound absorption and thermal insulation characteristics of fabrics made of pure and crossbred sheep waste wool

Zahra Mohammadi Ghermezgoli et al.

Summary: The study showed that crossbreeding improved fiber fineness and subsequently enhanced the sound absorption performance of woolen fabrics. Fabrics made from waste wool demonstrated better thermal insulation effects, and were found to have comparable acoustic and thermal properties to traditional mineral/wool and glass fiber materials. Waste wool was highlighted as an environmentally friendly insulation material that is also cost-effective, biodegradable, and readily available.

Turning textile waste into valuable yarn

Hafsa Jamshaid et al.

Summary: The study focused on utilizing various waste yarn and fabric clippers to produce blended textile fibers and open end yarn. Results showed that fibers reclaimed from yarn waste had superior properties in terms of length, uniformity, and floating fiber percentage, while yarn produced from fabric waste fibers was cheaper to produce. Additionally, licker-in waste fibers in yarn showed better results compared to other soft waste materials in the experiment.
