Fabric Dyeing

In a textile manufacturing company, cooling water is used in many places such as: Engine and burner cooling; Fabric cooling with cooling drums filled with water; Cooling dye baths; and Cooling of the air between different drying stages in a pressure dryer.

The spent cooling water can be circulated back to the process water storage tank or it can be transported to a separate storage tank for warm process water. The only disadvantage can be the increased risk of contaminants in the process water. However, a monitoring system can be installed to detect this (measuring, e.g., pH, conductivity, turbidity) and filters can be installed to purify the water.
Recycling of cooling water can reduce total water consumption by about 50% and energy consumption by about 20%.
The applicability is company specific and depends, among other factors, on the demand and supply of water in the company.
The investment costs depend on the specific company situation and recycling possibilities. The recycling of cooling water can lead to water savings of up to 50%.

Oter Terms

  • Boiler pressure can be set at the lowest acceptable level by:
  • Tuning the boiler pressure to the energy demand. The lower the pressure, the lower the energy losses are. Check the lowest steam pressure at which the connected equipment functions properly.
  • Reducing the margins between maximum and minimum steam pressure at which the boiler reacts (often it switches between half power and full power) This reduces temperature variations. Based on professional experience it is possible to adjust the margins. By doing so, the boiler and the steam circuit last longer and require less maintenance.
  • Making sure that the settings are such that the boiler never switches off. Switching off and restarting the boiler cost extra energy since the boiler requires air rinsing for safety reasons. In cases when boiler is used 24 hours a day, the steam demand is often less during the night. Reduce the pressure in the steam circuit during these periods to the required minimum level. Programmable switches allow automatic switching.

For example, a jet dyeing machine may need steam at 6 kg/cm2 for achieving 3 kg/cm2 pressure in machine. The steam generation may be at 8 kg/cm2 (saturated) considering steam transmission losses. However if boiler operates at 15 kg/cm2, the pressure would need to be reduced through pressure reducing valve to again 6 kg/cm2, at the machine. Thus incurring energy loss corresponding to heat at 15 kg and heat at 8 kg. In case of leaks etc. the loss would be much more in case of 15 kg line compared to 8 kg line.
Reducing steam pressure reduces energy losses.
Every company that has a steam installation.
Cost of changing the settings of a steam pressure is negligible. Purchase of a programmable switch can be considered. Reduced energy losses leads to reduced energy costs.

What is Soft Wool Winder For Dyeing? Reactive Dyes

Soft Wool Winder

Soft Wool Winder – The aim of this test is to establish whether a fibre-level dyeing can be achieved with a given levelling agent. The test is primarily important for the Lanasol (reactive dyes for wool). It is similar to  Deep Dyeing

Determination of the levelling and retarding power of levelling agents with reactive and special wool dyes

Principle         

Lanaset ( specially selected dyes for wool ) ranges. It can, however, also be used for other dye classes with due allowance for the relevant recipes and application methods.

Retardation of dye uptake and fibre levelness (root / tip) are assessed visually.

Procedure      

Reactive dyes

Substrate Australian wool, ( No. 3-1004 ). The material is wetted hot and left to cool overnight in the standing bath.  
Dye 2%            Lanasol Red G  
Chemicals   4%            ammonium sulfate pH 5 – 5.5 adjusted with acetic acid 80 %  
Auxiliary 0 – 1 – 2 %                    (higher amounts if necessary)  
Liquor ratio 40 : 1, de-ionized water  
Apparatus AHIBA dyebath or VISTACOLOR ( dyeing basket )  
Method Batchwise exhaustion as follows :
What is Soft Wool Winder For Dyeing
Important The pH must be checked before and after dyeing (pH meter).  If there are nmarked variations, the test series must be repeated. The liquor lost by evaporation during dyeing must be made up with de-ionized water adjusted to pH 5.5.  
Aftertreatment After dyeing, the wool is taken out of the bath and left to drain. It is then aftertreated in a fresh bath (liquor ratio 40 : 1) at pH 8.5 (adjusted with ammonia) for 15′ at 80°C, rinsed and neutralized with formic acid 85 %.
Exhaustion test The exhaustion test shows whether a product retards dye uptake.
Apparatus   AHIBA Texomat
Substrate   Liquor ratio 5 g wool test fabric, chlorinated    ( No. 3-3008 )   40 : 1
Assessment After it has been rinsed and dried, the dyeing is assessed for fibre levelness (root / tip), and retardation of dye uptake. To assess a levelling agent, parallel dyeings must be carried out, one with a known reference product and one without levelling agent   Albegal B is the state-of-the-art reference product for use with reactive dyes for wool.
