摘要

The rapid increase in global textile waste poses significant environmental and resource challenges, necessitating effective recycling strategies. This article provides a global perspective on textile waste recycling (TWR), including policies in major countries and initiatives by international organizations. Through bibliometric analysis, four key research themes were identified: dye removal, physical recycling methods, chemical recycling methods, and sustainable development and the circular economy. Based on bibliometric analysis, the article reviews various TWR approaches and their applications, such as physical methods for fiber and composite production, chemical methods for material synthesis, and thermochemical conversion methods for carbon material and energy recovery. The study also analyzes the economic and environmental benefits of various recycling methods, highlights current challenges, and offers recommendations to guide future research in TWR. This work represents a significant advancement in the valorization of textile waste and provides valuable insights for designing effective strategies for sustainable textile waste management.
