| Abstract | ||
| As the world faces growing concerns over the harmful effects of synthetic dyes on both the environment and human health, chlorophyll presents itself as a revolutionary, eco-friendly alternative in the dye industry. This naturally occurring pigment, vital in photosynthesis, is renowned for its renewability, bioactivity, and versatility, making it an ideal candidate for applications in textiles, food, and medicine. The study delves into various methods for extracting chlorophyll, including aqueous, solvent-based aiming to maximize yield and quality. In addition, it investigates chlorophyll’s structural and functional roles, its nutritional advantages, and its potential as a sustainable substitute for harmful synthetic dyes. Laboratory trials show promising results in using chlorophyll to effectively dye fabrics, reinforcing its viability as a green solution for industries moving towards eco-conscious practices | ||
