IIT Ropar Develops Innovative Green Technology to Cut Water Usage in Textile Industry

The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Ropar has developed an innovative green technology called “air nano bubble” that can reduce water usage in the textile industry by up to 90%. The technology is based on nano bubbles of air and ozone that interact with fabric more efficiently than water, enabling the effective distribution of chemicals and dyes in the fabric. This reduces the amount of water and energy needed in the textile processing process, as well as the amount of chemicals used.

Potential environmental impact:

The air nano bubble technology has the potential to significantly reduce the water consumption and energy usage in the textile industry. This could lead to a reduction in the environmental impact of the industry and help conserve water for future generations. Additionally, the processed water can be reused, further reducing the water usage. The technology also helps in maintaining the original color of the garment, making it eco-friendly and sustainable. The development of the air nano bubble technology is part of IIT Ropar’s initiative to conserve water and clean the environment through new processing methods.
