The work was performed in a well known Textile mill in Karachi, Pakistan. The study was done to determine effect of some important parameters to save on water and energy (steam and electricity) consumption. Important variable washing parameters such as temperature, water flow rate and speed

Bio-processing is the one of the eco-label fields in the modern technologies. Therefore, this article mainly focuses on new research on biological treatments for pretreatment sector of cellulosic substrate for eco-friendly processes and eco balancing by using various enzymes, instead of harsh & hazardous chemicals. In addition, the future trends in the biotechnology are also discussed in the end of this paper. This paper presents also short introduction to the method of new bioprocesses. Biotechnology can be used in new production processes that are themselves less polluting than the traditional processes and microbes or their enzymes are already being used to degrade toxic wastes. The use of enzymes in the textile chemical processing is rapidly gaining globally recognition because of their non-toxic and eco-friendly characteristics with the increasingly important requirements for textile manufactures to reduce pollution in textile production The reduction in pollution load represents a major option for potentially decreasing both the environmental impacts as well as the treatment costs. Keywords: Biological Treatment, AMG-Amyloglucosidase/Pullanase Mixture.
