摘要

In modern agriculture, the agro-textilesAgro-textile play a vital role in providing solutions for crop protection, water management and soil conservation. Nevertheless, the rapid consumption of synthetic textiles has caused severe environmental issues related to long-term degradationDegradation and disposal of the waste. This chapter analyses the sustainableSustainable End-of-Life (EoL) management approaches for agro-textilesAgro-textile, particularly focusing on compostingComposting techniques and biodegradation. Further, discussing the biological processes involved in degradationDegradation of materials along factors affecting microbial breakdown, such as fibre type, presence of additives and environmental conditions are discussed in this chapter. Various pre-treatment strategies to enhance degradationDegradation as well as efficiency compostingComposting methods, including anaerobic and aerobic systems, are analysed. Finally, the chapter summarizes the emerging innovationsInnovation in development and production biodegradableBiodegradable agro-textilesAgro-textile aligning with circular economyCircular economy principles for future applicationsApplications.
