A Comparative Study on Conventional and Sustainable Wash processes in Denim Garments for Environmental Impacts
(Daffodil International University, 23-03-12) Rashed, Md.; Islam, Sanzir; Bahadur, Md. Arman
As the faded denim or old look denim is favored by the present youth, washing has become a vital issue for the technologists to change denim attire to satisfy the interest of existing pattern. The primary elements influencing shoppers when choosing articles of clothing are stylish appearance and design. Denim articles of clothing are oppressed in mechanical washing to get explicit appearance and handle. The washing and completing cycles are used with the end goal of design and extraordinary plans are applied for various impacts which are very noteworthy for promoting denim market. Denim also plays a vital role in our economy. The aim of this paper is to find out the effect of changes occurs in physical properties of denim when it is subjected to conventional wash or sustainable wash. To comparing the conventional wash and environment friendly sustainable wash. In the report we try to figure out the changes of Environment Impact for denim after wash and before wash, and compared them to each other. Weight loss percentage also include in the report. We used denim fabric (70% cotton, 28 % polyester 2 % Viscose). We take EMI score for sustainable wash and conventional wash. The EMI score for both tests are measured with the help of lab. This score indicates (0-33 low impact), (34-66 medium impact) above 66 is high impact on environment. Which is not good for environment. We find Sustainable wash chemical, water impact, chemical consumption is less than conventional wash. We try to find out new technology in denim wash, which will be fruitful for this sector and sustainable wash. In this paper with the help of our teacher we tried to know some upcoming technology which is necessary for denim development, like, laser machine, ozone machine effect on denim wash. With the use of these machine denim development will be improved in a sustainable way.
Examining the synergy of green supply chain practices, circular economy, and economic growth in mitigating carbon emissions: Evidence from EU countries

Integrating green supply chain strategies and circular economy (CE) practices holds substantial potential for promoting environmental sustainability and reducing CO2 emissions. This study investigates the synergy between green supply chain practices, circular economy, and economic growth (RGDP) impacts on carbon emissions in 13 selected European Union (EU) countries, using a comprehensive panel dataset from 2000 to 2022. We employ both linear and nonlinear panel ARDL models, along with causality tests, to examine how CO2 emissions respond to changes in green supply chain management (GSCM), real GDP (RGDP), and various recycling practices, including bio-waste, municipal waste, and packaging waste. Our findings reveal that GSCM practices significantly reduce carbon emissions in the long run, while economic growth (RGDP) and municipal waste generation correlate positively with increased CO2 emissions. Interestingly, the nonlinear ARDL model highlights that only recycling packaging waste (RWP) exhibits a positive long-run effect on reducing emissions. Additionally, the method of moments quantile regression (MMQR) analysis indicates that the impact of GSCM is more pronounced at higher quantiles of CO2 emissions, whereas the effect of RGDP on emissions remains inconsistent. These results underscore the crucial need to adopt and enhance green supply chain practices within a circular economy framework to achieve substantial carbon emission reductions, holding significant implications for carbon emissions policies in the selected EU countries.
