Textile composting

V okviru diplomskega dela smo kompostirali določene naravne in sintetične tekstilne materiale. Postopek kompostiranja bi lahko uporabljali za recikliranje tekstilnih odpadkov. Kompostiranje viskoze, volne, bombaža ( naravni tekstilni materiali) in PES ter PA 6,6 (sintetični tekstilni materiali) je potekalo tri mesece. Mesečno smo spremljali spremembe na vzorcih s pomočjo gravimetrične metode in metode vizualnega ocenjevanja in evidentiranja vzorcev med kompostiranjem. Vzorci iz viskoze, volne in bombaža so se po treh mesecih kompostiranja v celoti oziroma delno razgradili, pri vzorcih iz PES in PA 6,6 pa ni prišlo do razgradnje. As a part of this diplomatic work, we composted certain natural and synthetic textile materials. The process of composting could be used for recycling textile waste. Composting of viscose, wool, cotton (natural textile materials) and PES and PA 6,6 (synthetic textile materials) took three months. Every month we observed the changes on samples with the gravimetrical method and the method of visual grading and evidencing samples between composting. After three months viscose, wool and cotton samples have completely or partially composed, as for the other PES and PA 6,6 samples, composting didn’t take place.
