Abstract

[Environmental hazards associated with industrial activities have been predominant for the past few centuries all over the world. Before the advent of the industrial revolution, such hazards were almost unheard of. Most products were made from organic and natural inputs, causing less or no pollution. Today, pollution has become so rampant that the health of millions of people is at risk due to polluted water, air and land. Several modern techniques to control pollution have often resulted in process improvements, but quite a few of them are costly, and some of them even cause new unanticipated problems. Therefore, it is high time industrialists, and academicians alike consider natural solutions from the ancient and medieval world, in terms of reducing pollution in a cost-effective way. Textile sector is a suitable example in this regard, since it had evolved and matured thousands of years ago but has been facing pollution issues in countries like India today.]
