CARBON PRINT






Coconut shell is a byproduct of the coconut oil and desiccated coconut industry which is considered as a waste. In addition to coconut shells, rice husks are also considered as an agricultural waste. These natural products are firstly being washed to remove dirt or any other contamination's. Then they are grounded and undergo a carbonisation process. Afterwards, it is granulated and sieved to get the desired carbon powder. This carbon powder is mixed with kaolin mining waste, which is a residue generated during the purification process of extracting high purity kaolin, and a ready to print black colour ink is manufactured.

RECYCLE FABRIC WASTE PRINT

It is a known fact; that more than 80% of clothing ends up in landfills or incinerators which creates a huge impact on the environment. Therefore it would be useful to explore new methodologies to manage this huge textile waste. Under this concept, reprocess the scraps and transform textile fiber into colored powder. Dyestuff range made by using recycled used clothing, fibrous material and textile scraps. This pigment concentrate has been developed by dispersing the pigment (composed of ground textile); in water with the help of some additives and can be used as a textile printing ink. This product is neither explosive nor oxidizing and has not reported any toxicity. It is applied in suspension, not as a part of the chemical solution. It is filtered easily
