Abstract

Waste is an important resource that affects the environment and human health at the global level. Among these wastes is textile waste, which has great potential to be reused or recycled to produce innovative products with high added value to enhance the principles of sustainability in various industrial applications, such as clothing, furnishings, pendants, the automobile industry, sporting goods, building and construction materials, insulation, ceilings, floor separation, carpets, Etc., etc. For this reason, all textile remains were collected by the Textile Technology Research Institute from laboratory research and characterization tests, as well as from the Misr Spinning and Weaving Company. Then the textile remains were sorted and each was classified according to its type into fabrics, threads, and fibres. After that, it was washed and dried well to transform and form it into a different useful technical product to maximize the final use, expand the scope of our waste, and create new job opportunities for young people and single-headed families by applying it in small or micro-projects, which has an economic impact on society.
