The environmental protection in our country is increasing and the restriction degree of the environment to the industrial development is higher and higher. It is the future development direction of the textile industry cluster to speed up the cultivation and form the low carbon green textile industry chain in the whole life cycle.
The transformation and upgrading of textile industrial clusters must adhere to green development, circular development and low-carbon development, integrate local industry and enterprise production reality, unify planning, scientific guidance, further improve cleaner production system, and improve related standards, and strengthen cleaner production audit and performance evaluation, speed up the application of energy-saving equipment and energy-saving technology in all links, improve the energy saving level of the whole industry, break through a number of key common technologies, and develop ecological dyeing and finishing technology with low energy consumption, low water consumption and low pollutant emissions, develop green textile products, and promote ecological design, improve energy efficiency, environmental protection and low carbon level of products, guide green production, build green factories and realize hygiene Intensive, clean and intelligent production process, and build a green supply chain, build a recycling system of textile industry from raw materials, production, marketing, consumption to recycling, improve the green manufacturing level, and create a whole life cycle low-carbon green textile industry chain.
Improving the level of intelligent manufacturing is the most important part of the development of textile industry in the 13th Five-Year Plan, and it is also the focus of the transformation and upgrading of textile industry cluster.
According to the actual production, different degrees and different levels of industry cluster should promote the intellectualization and digitization of the whole textile process. Building intelligent factory, digital workshop in key areas of textile and clothing industry cluster to implement "Machine networking", "Factory networking", integration and innovation of a batch of human-computer intelligent interaction, high-grade numerical control machine tools, automatic production lines and other technologies and equipment, forming a group of competitive enterprises, to promote textile and clothing key industries to gradually realize the "machine replacement," implementing the "Internet" action plan of textile industry cluster, accelerating the network process and intelligent application, and basically forming the network economy and industrial enterprise association With the interactive development pattern, promoting the industrial cluster economy development to raise the quality and the efficiency, supporting the development of the Internet as the carrier, online and offline interaction between the emerging consumption patterns and service formats, the development of sharing economy.
Nanollose, based in Australia, has developed the world's first cellulosic fiber garment made from biomass waste through microbial transformation.
Viscose fiber can be made of cellulose materials such as wood fiber (birch, beech, pine, etc.), cotton fiber (cotton staple), gramineous fabric fiber (bamboo, Reed, corn pole, etc.), but in practical production, it is mainly from the high yield, a wide range of wood pulp as raw materials. Since deforestation may affect the environment, many factories have established their own forest farms and passed FSC certification, making their own sources of materials more sustainable.
In the production of viscose, a large amount of chemical raw materials, such as caustic soda, carbon disulfide, sulfuric acid and so on, need to be used, and the recovery effect of these chemical raw materials is poor, which will cause great pollution to the environment.
Nullabor, a non-wood fiber developed by Nanollose, is a good solution to two pain points in viscose fiber production. Nullabor is a by-product derived from microbes, and microorganisms waste biomass, such as coconut waste. By fermenting the cellulose (the chemical composition is similar to cotton), Nanollose then uses its own technology to convert the cellulose into viscose fiber, which is well compatible with existing industrial processing and manufacturing equipment. The whole process takes only 18 days, and the need for land, water and energy is small.
