Management of dressing and finishing waste with organic solvents
The problem of waste generated during the preparation of products and final processing containing organic solvents is an important environmental and social problem. These wastes contain dangerous substances that have a negative impact on the environment and human health. Effective management of such waste is a key task for ensuring sustainable development and environmental protection.
Product decoration – it is a process of processing materials, mainly textiles, with special substances called finishes. These substances give the products certain properties, such as water repellent, antistatic, strengthening and others. The main purpose of finishing is to improve the appearance, quality and functionality of finished products.
Wastes from product preparation and final processing containing organic solvents. Code according to the National list of waste 04 02 14*. Operations in accordance with Annexes 1, 2 to the Law of Ukraine “On Waste Management” R11.
The finishing process includes applying special solutions to the surface of the material, after which they are fixed by heating, drying or other methods. Organic solvents are used to dissolve and evenly distribute finishes on the surface of the material. However, after finishing the finishing process, waste containing residues of solvents and other chemicals is generated.

Harm for the environment
Organic solvents contained in waste from product preparation and final processing are one of the main causes of environmental pollution. These substances are highly toxic and can cause serious environmental problems such as:
- pollution of water resources;
- accumulation of toxic substances in the soil;
- emissions of harmful substances into the air.
Water resources are particularly vulnerable to pollution by organic solvents. When these substances enter the water, they can cause the death of fish and other aquatic organisms, as well as contribute to the development of toxic algae. Soil pollution leads to land degradation, reduction of their fertility and loss of biodiversity. Emissions of organic solvents into the air cause atmospheric pollution, which can affect people's health and change climatic conditions.
Pity for people
Organic solvents contained in the waste from product preparation and final processing are dangerous not only for the environment, but also for human health. They can cause various diseases and pathological conditions, in particular:
- respiratory disorders;
- allergic reactions;
- nervous system disorders;
- oncological diseases.
Respiratory disorders can occur as a result of inhalation of vapors of organic solvents. This can lead to chronic bronchitis, asthma and other respiratory diseases. Allergic reactions can manifest in the form of dermatitis, urticaria and other skin rashes. Disorders of the nervous system include headaches, dizziness, decreased concentration and memory. Organic solvents can also be carcinogenic, increasing the risk of developing cancer.
Ways to reduce harm
Complex approaches and modern technologies must be used to reduce the harm caused by waste products from finishing and finishing products containing organic solvents. Methods of environmental management of hazardous waste from the preparation of products and final processing containing organic solvents include the following measures:
- use of alternative, less toxic solvents;
- application of closed production cycle technologies (R11);
- implementation of waste treatment and processing systems;
- improvement of the pollution monitoring and control system.
The use of alternative solvents can reduce the toxicity of waste and reduce its negative impact on the environment and human health. Technologies of the closed cycle of production allow to minimize the generation of waste by reusing materials and resources. Waste treatment and processing systems help reduce their volume and toxicity before final disposal. Pollution monitoring and control help to timely identify and prevent negative impacts on the environment.
In addition, it is important to pay attention to the methods of environmental management of hazardous waste from product preparation and final processing containing organic solvents. This includes operations for the collection, sorting, crushing and treatment of hazardous waste. Efficient transportation of hazardous waste is also critical to reducing its impact on the environment.
