Abstract: The textile industry is witnessing significant transformations in dyeing methods due to technological advancements. Innovations in dyeing techniques have not only revolutionized the way fabrics are colored but also paved the way for more sustainable and efficient practices. This article explores the innovations and advancements in dyeing methods brought about by technology, the impact of these advancements on the industry, and the implications for the future of textile dyeing processes. The successful substitution of hazardous chemicals with more sustainable alternatives like salt-free dyeing, urea replacement, use of natural dyes, and low-temperature soaping enhances efficiency, reduces waste, minimizes environmental impact, and promotes sustainable practices having eco-friendly solutions. These methods reduce water consumption and chemical waste, making them more sustainable alternatives to conventional dyeing processes.
Keywords: Microwave, Plasma, Sonication, Supercritical CO2, Salt-free.
