Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The textile industry plays a significant role in the global economy, but it is also known for its detrimental environmental impact due to the extensive use of chemicals and resources. In response to the growing concern for sustainability and environmental protection, this study explores the implementation of Green Chemistry principles in the textile industry to achieve sustainable production practices. The aim of this research is to investigate how the adoption of Green Chemistry principles can lead to reduced environmental impact, improved resource efficiency, and enhanced sustainability in textile manufacturing processes. Chapter 1 provides an in-depth introduction to the research topic, including the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definitions of key terms. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review covering ten key areas related to Green Chemistry principles, sustainable production practices in the textile industry, and previous research on similar topics. Chapter 3 outlines the research methodology employed in this study, including research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and ethical considerations. It also discusses the selection of case studies and the rationale behind the chosen research approach. The chapter includes eight sub-sections that provide detailed information on each aspect of the research methodology. Chapter 4 delves into the discussion of findings from the research, presenting the results of the analysis and their implications for the implementation of Green Chemistry principles in sustainable textile production. The chapter explores the challenges and opportunities associated with adopting Green Chemistry practices in the textile industry, as well as the potential benefits for environmental sustainability and business operations. Chapter 5 concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings, highlighting the contributions of the research to the field of sustainable production in the textile industry, and offering recommendations for future research and practical applications. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of integrating Green Chemistry principles into textile manufacturing processes to promote environmental stewardship, resource conservation, and long-term sustainability. Overall, this thesis contributes to the growing body of knowledge on sustainable production practices in the textile industry and provides valuable insights into the potential benefits of implementing Green Chemistry principles for environmental protection and sustainable development.
