Textile materials shed microfibres during different phases of their life cycle. While much attention has been paid to the impact of microplastics on the environment, there has been less focus on the impact of microfibre pollution, which also poses a serious environmental threat. Microfibre Pollution from Textiles: Research Advances and Mitigation Strategies shines a light on the hidden effects of textile microfibre pollution and examines its generation in manufacturing, use including laundering, and disposal. It details advancements and gaps in the quantification and characterization techniques that are emerging in the growing field of study of microfibre pollution in textile technology.The bookExamines the contributions of the textile and fashion industries to microfibre pollution, from production to disposalReviews recently developed methods and technological advancements in the identification and quantification of microfibres from textilesAddresses emerging sustainable mitigation strategies and sustainable textile production methods that can potentially reduce or eliminate microfibre sheddingDetails the state-of-the-art on existing regulations and standards and provides scope for future research in the area of standard developmentBy bridging the gap between environmental and textile studies, this book is aimed at researchers and advanced students in textile and environmental science and engineering.
