Natural Dyes and Sustainability

Natural Dyes and Sustainability by Subramanian Senthilkannan Muthu
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 358 Pages | ISBN : 3031474708 | 33.5 MB

Natural dyes offer a time-tested and generally more sustainable alternative to synthetic dyes in the textile industry. The issues surrounding synthetic dyes are well-known, and in the literature it is generally accepted that natural dyes have a smaller environmental impact. However, even natural dyes have issues that must be dealt with in order to ensure sustainability in the industry. For example, the mordants needed to improve the dyeing process may release hazardous heavy metal pollutants when used. This book is dedicated to exploring cases such as this that illustrate the benefits and drawbacks to natural dyes and steps that must be taken for their sustainable use in the textile industry.

Reframing Human Endeavors: Design and Technology for Livability and Sustainability

Reframing Human Endeavors: Design and Technology for Livability and Sustainability by Bagoes Wiryomartono
English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 239 Pages | ISBN : 303129565X | 15.8 MB

This ambitious text is a monograph about human experiences concerning the potentialities, capacities, and features of humankind from the wholeness of the collective mind body spirit. The purpose in reframing human endeavors is for enhanced alignment for livability and sustainability. This book departs from the concept and practice of “design and technology” and argues that most crises that endanger and destruct our ecological livability and sustainability come from our way of thinking and doing with “design and technology” based on the necessity for control. It is the control for overcoming the fear of scarcity, starvation, and the unknown. This book is rather an attempt to find alternate way of decision-making thru holistic methods. It appeals to researchers working in design, sustainability, architecture and urban studies.
