Enzymes in Textile Processing: A Climate Changes Mitigation Approach: Textile Industry, Enzymes, and SDGs (SDGs and Textiles)

The book offers a comprehensive overview of low-capital cost technologies for enzyme manufacture and utilization in the textile industry with sustainable bioenergy from effluent. Enzymes produced from renewable sources to replace potentially harmful chemicals in textile products have been outlined in making the textile industry greener and eco-friendly. The current book also addresses the strategies to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs) and sustainability education in the textile sector. In particular, the use of green enzymes to convert by-products from textile effluents into bioenergy has been highlighted. This book outfits academic researchers, industrial practitioners, and policymakers for the engagement of green enzymes as a step toward sustainable development goals in the textile industry.
