| Abstract | ||
| Given the negative effects of the textile industry on the environment, the goal of this research was to identify solutions to prevent environmental contamination, particularly air and water pollutions. Because of its heavy reliance on water, power, and harmful chemicals, the conventional textile sector contributes significantly to environmental damage. When it comes to combating toxic chemicals, sustainable scouring holds a lot of promise. In this work an environmentally friendly scouring agent is used instead of the conventional method of scouring, which uses hazardous chemicals that are harmful to both the environment and human. This recommended product's unique composition removes the need for caustic during the bleaching process while simultaneously acting as a washer, detergent, and peroxide stabilizer. | ||
