Environmental Impact of Textile Materials: Challenges in Fiber–Dye Chemistry and Implication of Microbial Biodegradation
This review examines how the textile industry contributes to environmental pollution through both chemical dye waste and microplastic fiber release. Synthetic fabrics like polyester and nylon shed non-biodegradable microfibers during manufacturing and washing, while the dyeing process generates contaminated wastewater. The paper highlights microbial biodegradation as a promising and cost-effective approach to breaking down both textile waste and the microplastics it produces.
Addressing the Impacts of Textile Industries on Environment and Socio- Economic Condition of Bank Town and Baraigram Area: a Management Perspective

Researchers compiled insights across 19 chapters addressing waste management, membrane technology, biochar, food security, and public services.
Water Pollution Hazards and Toxicity Caused by Textile Industries Effluent
This review examined water pollution caused by textile industry effluents, which contain dyes, heavy metals, and synthetic compounds that threaten both ecosystems and human health. The authors assess current treatment technologies and regulatory challenges in managing wastewater from one of the most water-intensive industries globally.
Establishing Knowledge Management System to Support the Education System
This book chapter examines Indonesia's post-pandemic recovery, covering topics including environment and technology issues such as waste management, membrane technology, persistent organic pollutants, and microplastics alongside food security and public service development. The volume compiles 19 chapters spanning disaster management, greening strategies, biochar industry, and smart packaging as part of a broader framework for national development after COVID-19.
A review of multi-contaminant risks in textile dyeing sludge pyrolysis: Transformation mechanisms and mitigation strategies
This review examines the behavior of multiple contaminants, including microplastics, heavy metals, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, during the pyrolysis treatment of textile dyeing sludge. Researchers found that while pyrolysis offers advantages over incineration and landfilling for treating this industrial waste, understanding of how emerging contaminants transform during the process is still limited. The study identifies key research gaps in quantifying emerging pollutants and assessing the long-term safety of biochar produced from contaminated sludge.
Remediation of Heavy Metals Polluted Soils in Indonesia
This chapter reviews remediation approaches for heavy metal-polluted soils in Indonesia, examining the landscape of contamination sources and the effectiveness of available treatment technologies. The review contributes to a broader edited volume on environmental challenges facing Indonesia's post-pandemic recovery, situating heavy metal soil pollution within the country's wider environmental management priorities.
Environment and Technology as the Foundation of Indonesia’s Sustainable Development
This book chapter examines environment and technology as foundational pillars of Indonesia's sustainable development following the COVID-19 pandemic, covering topics from microplastics and persistent organic pollutants to smart food systems and digital governance. The chapter provides an overarching framework for the 19-chapter volume addressing Indonesia's post-pandemic recovery trajectory.
Perspective Chapter: Textile Industry Challenges and Priority Actions to Mitigate Microplastic Fibre Pollution
This perspective chapter examines the textile industry's challenges in mitigating microplastic fibre pollution, arguing that stakeholders should prioritise immediate implementation of effective mitigation strategies including improved wastewater treatment, policy integration, and public awareness rather than awaiting fully standardised test methodologies.
A Review on Textile and Clothing Industry Impacts on The Environment
This review examines how textile and clothing industry operations — including dyeing, finishing, and synthetic fiber production — contribute to water, air, and soil pollution, documenting the downstream effects on aquatic organisms, human health, and plants, and evaluating mitigation approaches across the industry's environmental impact categories.
Defossilizing Chemical Industry as an Integrated Solution for Indonesia's Climate and Pandemic Crisis
This book chapter examines defossilizing the chemical industry as an integrated solution to Indonesia's climate crisis and pandemic recovery, framing it within a broader environmental and technology strategy that also addresses microplastics and persistent organic pollutants. The study argues that transitioning away from fossil-based chemical production can contribute simultaneously to sustainability and post-pandemic resilience.
Bioremediation of Toxic Pollutants
This paper is not relevant to microplastics research — it is a broad review of bioremediation approaches for environmental pollutants including heavy metals and textile dyes, with no specific focus on microplastics.
Engineered biochar-metal oxide nanocomposites for targeted dye remediation in textile wastewater
**TLDR:** This research review summarizes new materials that could better clean cancer-causing dyes from clothing factory wastewater before it reaches our drinking water sources. While lab tests show these materials can remove over 95% of harmful dyes, they don't work as well in real-world conditions with dirty industrial wastewater. Better water treatment is crucial since textile factories dump 280,000 tons of toxic dyes into waterways each year, threatening both wildlife and human health.
