“…Another critical global environmental issue is soil contamination from heavy metals. The textile industry consists of huge amounts of heavy metals which can influence the soil other than reducing the quality of air and water (Gupta & Srivastava, 2020;Singh et al, 2020;Manzoor, 2006;Dheeba & Sampathkumar, 2012). A high concentration of organic compounds affects soil health so that the living ecosystems such as plants, animals, and humans are not preserved (Singh, Glick, & Rathore, 2020).…”

“…The unavailability of the ionic nutrients of the plant has been exacerbated by the intolerable volume of heavy metal and high concentration of organic compound as a result of textile dyes waste and enhance the hardness of soil leading to the changes in soil texture (Gupta & Srivastava, 2020;Pokhriya et.al., 2020). In Turkey, due to the limitation of water supply, they have been using industrial wastewater for their agriculture.…”

The textile industry is a vital industry in the world in which the products serve the basic needs of people, as well as giving a quality enhancement or luxury in our daily life. This includes clothing, home furnishing, automotive textile, and many others. Nevertheless, textile processing is known to bring pollution to the environment and has a major effect on water, air, and soil. Hence, this review paper is divided into several sections. In the first part, factors and impacts of the textile industry on the environment are discussed. Next, the literature which discussed the effects of the pollution caused by the textile industry on others is reviewed. The following part is about the effect of pollution on humans, aquatic life, and plants. Several aspects of water pollution, air pollution, and soil pollution consequences are reviewed and the last part is ways to overcome the pollution. A variety of approaches were suggested and implemented globally such as chemical method, physical method and biological method, soil washing, and organic cotton production to combat the pollution or lessen the damage caused by the industry to the environment. As much as people need to live with textiles around them, they also need to ensure that the environment is not harmed by their actions.
