The problem of resource conservation within the life cycle of nonwoven materials

Abstract

Intensive development of scientific and technological progress and rapid population growth over the past century have led to the fact that the world has accumulated a huge amount of unused waste [1]. At present, textile waste is generated at all light industry enterprises. Such wastes are generated in huge quantities and are not accepted by procurement organizations, but are taken out for disposal, thereby deteriorating the ecological condition of the country. Therefore, there is an important scientific and technical problem, which is to develop technological processes using textile waste. In order to solve this problem, it is extremely important to gain an insight into the special technical and technological solutions in this field. They are the combining of different methods of forming and bonding fibrous webs, additional processing and processing of nonwovens, as well as the creation of modern small plants for the production of goods that are in limited demand. Nonwovens offer new opportunities to address global challenges related to climate change, the use of local raw materials and the provision of their production. The theme of resource conservation runs through all stages of the life cycle of nonwovens, from the raw materials used to make them to the disposal of used products.
