“…For that reason, various scholars (e.g. Ozturk and Cinperi, 2018 ; Petek and Glaviç, 2000 ; Rakib et al., 2017 ; San et al., 2018 ; Schaltegger et al., 2012 ) have recommended the implementation of CPP in the garments manufacturing industry ( Taylor, 2006 ; Thompson and Tong, 2016 ; Yin et al., 2021 ; Yuan et al., 2013 ; Zhang et al., 2013 ). In this context, this study argues that as compared to evasive and unclear outcomes of lean manufacturing principles, CPP is an established and time-honored approach for abating the industrial pollution discharged from the garments manufacturing industry around the globe ( Andrews et al., 2002 ; Mohan Prasad et al., 2020 ; Ramos et al., 2018 ; World Bank, 2019 ).…”

Implementation of cleaner production practices (CPP), service quality (SQ) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) is often studied at organizational level. A number of studies on trio have reported it’s significant impact on overall organizational performance and profitability across the globe. However, not much is studied about the individual level micro influence of these constructs on employee engagement (EE), organizational pride (OP), organizational identification (OI) and “desire to have a significant impact through work” (DSIW). Therefore, this study presents a comprehensive framework for assessing the impact of the implementation of CPP, SQ and CSR on EE, OP, OI and DSIW. Data collected from 320 non-managerial staff members employed at a garments manufacturing company in Pakistan was analyzed using partial least square (PLS) approach. Findings revealed that the implementation of CPP, SQ and CSR plays an important role in shaping EE, OP, OI and DSIW in the garments manufacturing industry. Further, it is found that the implementation of CPP has a non-significant impact on SQ. Additionally, results of the importance-performance map analysis (IPMA) have also confirmed that the implementation of CPP at company level has shown a highest importance and performance amongst all the latent constructs proposed as predictors of DSIW in the garments manufacturing industry. These findings are a step forward and unique contribution of this study in the domain of CPP, SQ, CSR, EE, OP, OI and DSIW.

“…For innovativeness and proactiveness, green entrepreneurial orientation goes for new technologies and systems that help to have a better environmental performance in several ways. It includes minimize the use of raw materials and reduce the waste to go for lean production (Rakib, Saidur, Mohamad, & Afifi, 2017;Wickramasinghe & Wickramasinghe, 2017). According to the triple bottom line theory eco-friendly entrepreneur who initiates sustainable business that also has better environmental performance (Escrig-Olmedo, Muñoz-Torres, Fernández-Izquierdo, & Rivera-Lirio, 2017;Nuringsih, Nuryasman, & IwanPrasodjo, 2019).…”

Academic and business interest in sustainability and green practice has grown up considerably in recent years. Entrepreneurial orientation and market orientation are the two most researched issues in the SME sector. Instead, the business has proven a direct and indirect effect on our mother nature, which is not in favour of the environment. Even the SME sector and environmental issues are very closely related to upcoming challenges and opportunities for Bangladesh. So depending on previous studies, this paper presented a way of the better environmental performance of the SME sector that is positively influenced by green entrepreneurial orientation. Side of that, this paper also focused on the mediating effect of green market orientation. The main purpose of this paper can divide into two categories. One is a details literature view on the topics, and another is a conceptual framework for this research field. This study provides insights and suggestions from previous researches for government and a related organization, including business firms of the SME sector. The study also covers the significant outlines and reviews in this field. Further, it explores specific features of green practices in SME as well as limitations of present research; but it helps to stimulate further study.

“…It has been estimated that between 20% and 50% of the energy used in the industrial sector is wasted as heat in the form of hot exhaust gases, cooling water, and heat losses from the surfaces of hot equipment and heated products [1]. The textile sector presents great opportunities to increase its energy efficiency by using the waste heat from equipment that offer high energy availability, such as boilers, natural gas generators, waste water form dyeing, and stenters [1][2][3][4].…”

The textile sector, an important economic driving force in Antioquia, Colombia, uses great quantities of thermal energy mainly produced by coal combustion, which holds enormous potential for recovery. One of the most common processes in a textile plant is heat setting, which uses a significant amount of thermal energy to adjust the properties of fabrics, such as shrinking, stiffness, pull strength, width, and stretching. In this study, we calculate the mass and energy balances of a stenter and propose a system to recover the energy available in its exhaust gases. The energy recovery potential in this heat setting process is 800.97 kW, which represents 87.2% of the total input energy. Additionally, we evaluate different heat exchangers to recover the available heat and present criteria to select them. Finally, thermosyphons, whose thermal efficiency was theoretically determined here, offer a promising alternative for heat recovery from actual stenters.
