The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Ropar has developed a green technology called air nano-bubble, which reduces the quantity of water used in the textile sector. The institute has claimed that the technology can reduce the use of water up to 90 per cent. As per a rough estimate, 200-250 litres of water is required to process 1 kg of cotton. “The laboratory reports suggest that the air nano-bubble dispersed in water can reduce water consumption and chemical dosage by 90-95 per cent which ultimately saves 90 per cent of…
