Mao J, Chen H, Xu X, Zhu L. Assessing greenhouse gas emissions from the printing and dyeing wastewater treatment and reuse system: Potential pathways towards carbon neutrality. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 927:172301. [PMID: 38599411 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.172301] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2024] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024]
Abstract
The urgency of achieving carbon neutrality needs a reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the textile industry. Printing and dyeing wastewater (PDWW) plays a crucial role in the textile industry. The incomplete assessment of GHG emissions from PDWW impedes the attainment of carbon neutrality. Here, we firstly introduced a more standardized and systematic life-cycle GHG emission accounting method for printing and dyeing wastewater treatment and reuse system (PDWTRS) and proposed possible low-carbon pathways to achieve carbon neutrality. Utilizing case-specific operational data over 12 months, the study revealed that the PDWTRS generated 3.49 kg CO2eq/m3 or 1.58 kg CO2eq/kg CODrem in 2022. This exceeded the GHG intensity of municipal wastewater treatment (ranged from 0.58 to 1.14 kg CO2eq/m3). The primary contributor to GHG emissions was energy consumption (33 %), with the energy mix (sensitivity = 0.38) and consumption (sensitivity = 0.33) exerting the most significant impact on GHG emission intensity respectively. Employing prospective life cycle assessment (LCA), our study explored the potential of the anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) to reduce emissions by 0.54 kg CO2eq/m3 and the solar-driven photocatalytic membrane reactor (PMR) to decrease by 0.20 kg CO2eq/m3 by 2050. Our projections suggested that the PDWTRS could achieve net-zero emissions before 2040 through an adoption of progressive transition to low-carbon management, with a GHG emission intensity of -0.10 kg CO2eq/m3 by 2050. Importantly, the study underscored the escalating significance of developing sustainable technologies for reclaimed water production amid water scarcity and climate change. The study may serve as a reminder of the critical role of PDWW treatment in carbon reduction within the textile industry and provides a roadmap for potential pathways towards carbon neutrality for PDWTRS.

Supercritical fluid technology as a sustainable alternative method for textile dyeing: An approach on waste, energy, and CO 2 emission reduction. J Environ Sci (China) 2024; 140:123-145.

Abstract
The clothing industry is considered one of the most polluting industries on the planet due to the high consumption of water, energy, chemicals/dyes, and high generation of solid waste and effluents. Faced with environmental concerns, the textile ennoblement sector is the most critical of the textile production chain, especially the traditional dyeing processes. As an alternative to current problems, dyeing with supercritical CO2 (scCO2) has been presented as a clean and efficient process for a sustainable textile future. Supercritical fluid dyeing (SFD) has shown a growing interest due to its significant impact on environmental preservation and social, economic, and financial gains. The main SFD benefits include economy and reuse of non-adsorbed dyes; reduction of process time and energy expenditure; capture of atmospheric CO2 (greenhouse gas); use and recycling of CO2 in SFD; generation of carbon credits; water-free process; effluent-free process; reduction of CO2 emission and auxiliary chemicals. Despite being still a non-scalable and evolving technology, SFD is the future of dyeing. This review presented a comprehensive overview of the environmental impacts caused by traditional processes and confronted the advantages of SFD. The SFD technique was introduced, along with its latest advances and future perspectives. Financial and environmental gains were also discussed.

Red Disperse Azo Dye Side Chains Influence on Polyethylene Terephthalate Dyeing Performances in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Media. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14245487. [PMID: 36559854 PMCID: PMC9782905 DOI: 10.3390/polym14245487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2022] [Revised: 12/11/2022] [Accepted: 12/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing (SDD) as a dyeing media not only provides a friendly dyeing environment but also significantly increases polymeric dyeing performances ascribed to strong azo dye affinity. Disperse azo dyes have shown to be highly efficient dyeing agents due to their facile coupling synthesis, side chains position, and length tunability to optimize absorption properties. Herein, we first synthesize two series of disperse red azo dyes via a coupling chemical route. Further, we investigate the position of the electron withdrawing group and alkyl chains length impact onto the absorption and color fastness properties. Upon synthesis, 1H NMR and mass spectroscopy were used to characterize our newly synthesized series dye structure. Also, according to spectroscopic characterization, the functional group positions as well as the alkyl chains length have a major impact on the dye series maximum light absorption wavelength and performance. We have performed SDD dyeing of polyethylene terephthalate woven and determined each dye color fastness, we find that a reduced electron withdrawing effect and alkyl chains increase reduce color-fastness performances. Overall, our dyes exhibited a good resistance against detergent water, perspiration, abrasion, and friction.
