Given the concern over textile waste management, enzymatic hydrolysis of cotton is a potential pathway to upcycle waste into valuable chemicals. However, persistent dyes hinder enzyme performance. To overcome this, environmentally friendly oxidation methods were used in combination with mechanical refining. The results showed that oxidation improved glucose yield in enzymatic hydrolysis, highlighting the potential of this ecofriendly pathway for generating value-added chemicals from cotton waste.
Given the increasing concern over textile waste management and the proliferation of textile landfills, enzymatic hydrolysis of cotton represents a potential pathway to upcycle textile waste into valuable chemical building blocks. However, this pathway is challenged by the presence of persistent dyes, hindering enzyme performance. To overcome this issue, environmentally friendly and total chlorine free oxidation methods such as ozone and alkaline hydrogen peroxide were used in combination with mechanical refining pretreatment. The results showed that the enzymatic conversion of black-dyed cotton, without oxidation, resulted in a glucose yield of only 60% as compared to 95% for undyed cotton fibers. On the other hand, the inclusion of oxidation processes in the pretreatment stage resulted in a glucose yield of 90% via enzymatic hydrolysis at expense of using low oxidation chemicals and low enzyme charges. This work highlights the potential of oxidation methods, enzymatic hydrolysis, and mechanical refining as an ecofriendly pathway for generating value-added chemicals from cotton textile waste while promoting economic circularity.
