The textile industry's rapid growth and reliance on synthetic fibres have generated significant environmental pollution, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable waste management practices. Chemical recycling offers a promising pathway to reduce textile waste by converting used fibres into valuable raw materials, yet technical challenges remain due to the complex compositions of textile waste, such as dyes, additives, and blended fabrics.
纺织业的快速发展及其对合成纤维的依赖已造成了严重的环境污染,凸显了实施可持续废物管理措施的迫切需求。化学回收提供了一条很有前景的途径,可通过将废旧纤维转化为有价值的原材料来减少纺织废物,但由于纺织废物成分复杂,如染料、添加剂和混纺织物,技术挑战依然存在。
