Textile Waste as a Resource, Its Availability, and the Recent Technology for Its Transformation to Wealth in the Form of Thermal Insulation Material
摘要
With the advancements in the growing energy need and progressive development in the textile industry, there is also an increase in waste. Recent research shows various types of textile waste in forming and fabricating thermal insulating materials. This study collectively reviews the different textile waste and their process parameters for utilization in insulating materials. The results show that the textile wastes are successfully utilized as a profitable thermal insulating material, comparable to the materials already used. The insulation found in various materials was 0.339, 0.354, and 0.549 times more than the convectional material in various studies.
