Due to the excessive use of water required for cotton cultivation, scientists in this field have been looking at waste biomass as an alternative source of fiber supply. Canola waste biomass is a source of textile fibers which effectively costs nothing, as the biomass can be collected from the waste plant stems of canola plants after harvesting. Therefore, an investigation has been conducted to identify the characteristics of canola fiber and of the canola cultivar ( Brassica napus L.) suitable for textile applications. In this research, a bio-inspired approach was applied to produce fiber from canola biomass by water retting of four different cultivars (HYHEAR 1, Topas, 5440, and 45H29) cultivated in a greenhouse under controlled atmospheric conditions. It was found that the structural hierarchy of fiber density, mechanical properties and other textile fiber properties of canola fiber differ from cultivar to cultivar, which can be carefully harnessed for different applications. Further, it was found that the density of canola fiber is much lower than that of cotton and other competitive bast fibers, owing to its hollow structure, as revealed by scanning electron microscopy. The results suggest that canola may be an excellent choice for manufacturing of non-woven fabrics, eco-composites, apparel or other technical textiles.

“…The result is higher than the results obtained by Gholami et al [15], which ranges around 63.24%. Even though the results of the experiments have shown the efficacy of raw straw fiber in controlling landslide, field implementation of this material is still required to investigate its efficacy in field-scale settings [34].…”

For the first time, this experimental research analyzed the efficacy of rice straw fiber as soil cover in controlling slope erosion using a physical model. Three variations of rainfall intensity, soil slope degree, and rice straw fiber were conducted in this research. The results showed that rice straw fiber in the physical model had reduced the amount of erosion significantly. In general, a higher erosion rate was obtained with the increases of rainfall intensity and soil slope degree. The experiment was conducted with the percentage 30%, 60%, and 90% of soil cover using rice fiber straw, reducing erosion rates by 92.09%, 95.55%, and 98.21 %, respectively. Therefore, the higher the percentage of rice straw fiber used as soil cover, the smaller the ground will be affected by erosion. The ratio from the soil affected by erosion was 7.91%, 4.45%, and 1.79%, respectively. The result reveals that there is a significant decrease in erosion due to the increase of fiber used in the experiments. Meanwhile, the amount of erosion in the physical model without soil cover was 98.21% for the same rainfall severity and soil slope degree. This research showed that the application of rice straw fiber as a soil surface shield is highly effective in controlling slope erosion.

“…In addition, the decomposition residues of the samples after UV aging are all more than the sample without aging. This is mainly due to the fact that aging is actually a process of oxidation with more and more oxygen and oxygen atoms combing with fabric [35][36][37]. As the aging time continues to increase, the stability of the existing form of oxygen atoms in the fabric becomes worse, which leads to the reduction of decomposition residue after 14 days UV aging compared with 10 days UV aging.…”

There are more and more waste textiles in modern times while the recycling efficiency is relatively low. In order to increase the recycling of waste textiles, this paper proposes a kind of low-cost, environmental protection, good permeability, tough and anti-aging substrate geotextile which can replace the riparian soil to support normal growth of plants. First of all, the fiber web was formed by waste fibers (polyester 78 wt%, cotton 20 wt%, others 2 wt%) after carding and reinforcing with different needling parameters. The comprehensive properties of designed nonwoven geotextiles were estimated via a series of tests such as tensile, bursting, air permeability, morphology, thermal stability and porosity. Moreover, the ultraviolet-aging tests were also conducted with both an accelerating aging box and natural aging methods to assess the possibility of outdoor-usage as plant blanket. The comprehensive assessment of results has shown that the optimum processing parameter was the needle depth of 12 mm combined with the needling frequency of 700 times/min. The ultraviolet-aging results have revealed that manufactured geotextiles have comparatively good anti-aging performance, which is suitable for long-term exposure outside. This result of this research provides a feasible and convenient application field for recycled textiles.
