At the same time, the textiles industry is the fourth-largest CO2 emitter, according to Prof. Dr-Ing. Stefan Schlichter of Germany\u2019s Institut f\u00fcr Textiltechnik \u2013 Recycling Atelier. \u201cSo where we are is not that impressive,\u201d he acknowledged in his guest presentation on the pursuit of a circular textiles economy, delivered to the BIR Textiles Division meeting in Amsterdam on May 24.<\/p>\n<p>Among the many challenges for recycling, the speaker highlighted the incorporation into products of \u201ctoo many different materials \u2013 often only for price reasons\u201d. Design for recycling, upcycling, greater product durability and repair strategies were all identified by him as key building blocks for circularity.<\/p>\n<p>To meet these challenges, Prof. Schlichter listed the following needs: intensified research on alternative technologies; development of optimized take-back systems\/concepts for textiles waste management; development of industrial-scale chemical recycling as a future add-on to maintain upcycling; development of automatic sorting; and optimization of mechanical recycling. Having calculated that between 150 and 250 additional recycling facilities would be required in the years to 2030, the guest speaker insisted: \u201cWe need governmental help to build up this industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.recycling-magazine.com\/2023\/05\/30\/vast-room-for-improvement-in-pursuit-of-circular-textiles-economy\/\">Recycling Magazine<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-375\/\">Vast room for improvement in pursuit of circular textiles economy<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[838,575,5587],"class_list":["post-114552","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-circular-economy","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-textiles"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114552","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=114552"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114552\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=114552"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=114552"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=114552"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
