EXPERIENCING MORE‐THAN‐PANDEMIC WATERSCAPES: An Intra‐urban Comparison of Water Practices and Geographies in Nairobi

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract While many African cities, such as Nairobi, fared comparatively well during the pandemic years, urban residents still faced compounded uncertainties and an unequal distribution of burdens that were infrastructurally co‐mediated, for example, within and through place‐specific waterscapes and their socio‐technical infrastructures.

Sustainable dyeing of silk with curled dock (Rumex crispus) extract for trace element removal, ultraviolet protection, antimicrobial and anti‐oxidant activity

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the dyeability and functionality of silk dyed with curled dock leaf extract. The effects of sugar content and turbidity in the extracted dye solution on dyeing were analysed, along with K/S values and colour fastness, under varying temperatures and times.

From plant to fabric: Environmental opportunities associated with annatto dye for sustainable development in the textile industry

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Natural dyes are compounds that occur naturally in several organisms and are classified based on chemical structure and application method. The literature cites several natural dyes used in industrial transformation processes. Annatto dye is used in the food industry, and its biological pigment is extracted from the annatto seed. However, this

Delipidisation of wool fibres and the subsequent beneficial properties of delipidised wool fibres

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wool fibres are complex matrices of proteins and fatty acids/lipids found both internally and externally. 18‐methyleicosanoic acid (18‐MEA) is covalently bound to the surface of the fibre via a thio‐ester link, and is considered one of the most important lipids as it is responsible for the hydrophobic properties of wool fibres.

Electrochemical decolorization of acid dye baths and their reuse potential in subsequent textile dyeing processes

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the electrochemical decolorization of waste acid dye baths and evaluates their potential reuse in subsequent textile dyeing processes. Four different anode materials (iron, aluminum, stainless steel and graphite) were examined to optimize color removal efficiency and assess the influence of electrochemically generated ...
