“…In most situations, nanoparticles are included during conventional fabric finishing processes such as dipping, padding, printing, and coating. Organic polymers are commonly employed to ensure nanoparticle adherence to textile surfaces [ 77 , 134 ]. Table 3 displays the various types of nanomaterials utilized within the textile industry.…”

The growing worldwide population is directly responsible for the increased production and consumption of textile products. One of the key reasons for the generation of microfibers is the use of textiles and garment materials, which is expected to increase. The textile industry is responsible for the invisible pollution that is created by textile microfibers, which have been detected in marine sediments and organisms. The present review paper demonstrates that the microfibers discharged from functionalized textiles exhibit non-biodegradable characteristics and that a considerable proportion of them possess toxic properties. This is primarily attributed to the impact of textiles’ material functionalization on their biodegradability. The potential for these microfibers, which are released from textiles that contain a variety of dyes, toxic chemicals, and nanomaterials, to pose a variety of health risks to both humans and other living organisms is discussed in this paper. In addition, this paper covers a wide variety of preventative and minimizing measures for reduction, which are discussed in terms of several phases ranging from sustainable production through the consumer, end of life, domestic washing, and wastewater treatment phases.

“…Stone washing, sandblasting, scraping, whiskers, tacking, grinding, and ripping cuts were some of the techniques that were utilized in these processes [ 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 ]. The process of ring dying (i.e., indigo dyes) is used to provide the denim fabric with its signature blue or indigo hue [ 87 , 88 ]. The mechanical fading effect is directly proportional to the amount of abrasion that takes place on the denim surface, as the abrasion process opens up the structure of the yarn and produces an appearance that is soft, and fluffy, each of these finishing processes has enhanced the possibility for reducing the number of microfibers that are removed when the denim is washed in a household washing machine.…”

The increase in the global population is directly responsible for the acceleration in the production as well as the consumption of textile products. The use of textiles and garment materials is one of the primary reasons for the microfibers generation and it is anticipated to grow increasingly. Textile microfibers have been found in marine sediments and organisms, posing a real threat to the environment as it is invisible pollution caused by the textile industry. To protect against the damaging effects that microplastics can have, the formulation of mitigation strategies is urgently required. Therefore, the primary focus of this review manuscript is on finding an environmentally friendly long-term solution to the problem of microfiber emissions caused by the domestic washing process, as well as gaining an understanding of the various properties of textiles and how they influence this problem. In addition, it discussed the effect that mechanical and chemical finishes have on microfiber emissions and identified research gaps in order to direct future research objectives in the area of chemical finishing processes. In addition to that, it included a variety of preventative and minimizing strategies for reduction. Last but not least, an emphasis was placed on the potential and foreseeable applications of machine vision (i.e., quantification, data storage, and data sharing) to reduce the amount of microfibers emitted by residential washing machines.
