“…Instead, fashion customers could download and link with eco-friendly fashion awareness and renting apps, namely, Greenpeace International, Ellen Macarthur Foundation, Depop, Rent the Runway, Good On You, and several others (The Economist Newspaper Limited 2022 ) Recycle old clothes in exchange for new clothes (Teemill Tech Ltd n.d. ) Refill laundry detergent plastic bottles with natural soap nuts or eco-friendly liquids. Eco-friendly laundry soap such as a reetha nut aka soap nuts and shikakai must be utilised to combat synthetic detergent perils to the ecosystem (Thakker, Sustainable processing of cotton fabrics with plant-based biomaterials Sapindus mukorossi and Acacia concinna for health-care applications 2021 ). Several other eco-friendly laundry liquids are available, namely, Ecover laundry liquid zero and Koala eco natural laundry liquid (Hello Natural Living 2021 ) Microfibres at home could be controlled by consistent ventilation for air circulation and vacuum cleaning (Sánchez 2020 ) Wear clothes for longer duration and cold wash at short cycles as it would prodigiously save on vital resources such as water and energy (Patwary 2020 ) Buy less and enjoy your clothes more to prevent landfills.…”

In this paper, each of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is discussed in the context of textiles and fashion. The necessity of collaborative efforts is accentuated to overcome the climate crisis and human health concerns encountered by the textiles and fashion industry. The concerns over poverty faced by cotton farmers, soil depletion, and toxicity to aquatic life due to microfibres and heavy metals are presented. The paper underlines numerous corrective practises such as the utilisation of African Organic Cotton, Better Initiative Cotton, and others that could enable curtailing poverty and hunger. The requirement for a more corporate and socially responsible textiles and fashion business that would propel SDGs is described with inspiring examples of Inditex, Culthread, Saint Basics, Flamingo’s Life, etcetera. More, the greenwashing and ardent necessity of transparency across the fashion value chain is emphasised herein. The importance of reducing inequalities and working in partnership for innovation and justice is highlighted such as apple leather, algal foam, and others. Even more, the production waste and landfill disputes are reviewed. Eventually, the paper concludes with an appeal for mindful and diligent efforts from textiles and fashion consumers, designers, manufacturers, and traders to continually adapt to SDGs even after 2030 as there is no planet B. Also, abiding by the laws of nature as listed herein is found to be the key to reaching SDGs.

“…Впродовж багатьох років виконуються численні дослідження з розробки технологій захисту та відновлення навколишнього середовища. Розробка нових технологій очищення стічних вод є необхідною через шкідливий вплив на водні екосистеми забруднювачів внаслідок неякісного, неефективного очищення від забруднюючих речовин, що утворюються в промислових процесах [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Органічні барвники -дуже поширені забруднювачі через їх широкий круг застосування, високу стійкість до традиційних методів очищення, низькі концентрації та токсичну дію.…”

У роботі визначені фазовий склад, мікроструктура, фотокаталітична активність отриманого магнетиту. Розглянуто процес фотокаталітичного розкладання метиленового синього (МС) в присутності магнетиту під дією ультрафіолетового випромінювання. Досліджували вплив таких факторів як час обробки УФ-випромінюванням, маса адсорбенту, об’єм гідроген пероксиду. Експериментально-статистична модель була розроблена за допомогою метода центрального композиційного рототабельного планування експерименту (ЦКРПЕ). Отримана адекватна статистична модель. Розраховані значення ступеню розкладання МС були підтверджені експериментальними результатами. Визначені також оптимальні параметри процесу, а саме: концентрація фотокаталізатору, гідроген пероксиду і час оброблення. Маса адсорбенту та час обробки визначені як основні параметри, що впливають на ступінь деградації.

“…These pollutants contain non-biodegradable https://doi.org/10.31881/TLR.2022.67 carcinogenic elements and need a significant amount of time, money, and work to treat [7,8]. In all sectors, including textiles, food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics the manufacturers are compelling to switch such products with green, and sustainable products [9]. Antioxidant, anti-allergic, and antibacterial characteristics are found in most natural dyes [10,11].…”

Natural dyes have grown in popularity due to their eco-friendliness. They can be used as a substitute for synthetic dyes to minimize environmental pollution. This research investigates the natural colouring behaviour of haar singhar flower (HSF) extract in cotton dyeing. Colorant was extracted under various conditions utilizing various extraction mediums such as aqueous, basic, and acidic. On cotton, it was discovered that applying 55 mL of aqueous extract containing 1.5 g/100 mL sodium chloride for 40 minutes at 70 °C yielded the best colour output. A new hue with good colour fastness was developed utilizing chemical and bio-mordants. The existence of nyctanthin as a colouring agent in haar singhar flowers was discovered through FTIR analysis of the extract. The CIE Lab system revealed that using 2 g/100 mL of pistachio shell as a bio-mordant resulted in good quality reddish yellow hues. It was discovered that ultrasonic radiations have a high potential for isolating colourants and dyeing cotton fabric under decreased conditions of temperature, time and volume. The application of biomordants has made the procedure greener, more efficient, and safer.
