To identify academic studies that are concerned with life cycle environmental impact assessment of textiles, a systematic review (Baumeister and Leary, 1997) was conducted, which was based on the methodology proposed by Denyer and Tranfield (2009). It consisted of two steps: (1) identification; and (2) screening and eligibility, as illustrated

Abstract. This paper reviews studies of the environmental impact of textile reuse and recycling, to provide a summary of the current knowledge and point out areas for further research. Forty-one studies were reviewed, whereof 85% deal with recycling and 41% with reuse (27% cover both reuse and recycling). Fibre recycling is the most studied

The textile industry, known for its significant contribution to global greenhouse gas emissions, is increasingly active in exploring techniques and technologies to improve its environmental performance. The main tool to calculate environmental impacts is the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, which is standardized and internationally recognized. Specific guidelines for the impact

Greenhouse gas emissions. The fashion industry is estimated to be responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions - more than international flights and maritime shipping combined.. According to the European Environment Agency, textile purchases in the EU in 2020 generated about 270 kg of CO2 emissions per person.That means textile products consumed in the EU generated greenhouse gas emissions

The textile industry has various environmental impacts, including water use, toxicity, eutrophication, and greenhouse gas emissions across multiple life cycle stages. Environmental impacts at the cultivation stage depend on levels of irrigation, pesticide, and fertilizer applications. At the textile manufacturing stage, environmental impacts depend on energy infrastructure and manufacturing

The textile branch traditionally uses a surplus of energy, consuming an enormous amount of water, and is responsible for the deterioration of the environment. New solutions are formally focused on a circular economy with an impetus on sustainable development and a world with zero waste. In reality, the aims of circular economy often do not coincide with sustainability issues, and
