Textiles Industries

Textiles Industries Overview:

For centuries, India has been a textile hub and exports various textile products across the globe. In FY22, India’s textile and apparel exports stood at around USD 45 billion, with a 41% increase year-on-year. The Indian textile industry is witnessing a 10% CAGR growth and is projected to reach USD 190 billion by 2025.

Regarding employment, the textile industry is India’s second-largest employment-generating sector as it offers employment to over 35 million people. India is also the world’s largest producer of cotton, with a production of 360 lakh bales in 2021-22. There is also a consequent increase in all its auxiliary industries. The Indian government has been further boosting this sector through various production-linked incentives.

Process-wise, the sector is highly varied. Starting from handloom to industrial factory setups, this sector requires various equipment. However, rapid industrialization in this sector has enabled large-scale production, especially regarding raw materials. The use of technology has also opened up new avenues for the Indian textile sector as now it can produce a wider variety of products for domestic use and also for exports.

Use of Pumps in the Textiles Industries:

All major processes in the textile industry use pumps in some way or another. JEE pumps are tailor-made to perform efficiently in dying, washing, water intake, and pressure boosting. The rating, scale and type of pump used varies with the application.

Wastewater handling is one of the biggest challenges in the textile industry as the processes generate many effluents that need to be treated. In addition, the water is generally mixed with bleaching agents, dyes and other hazardous chemicals, posing a major risk. Solid waste also needs to be handled effectively in the textile industry.

Therefore, the pumping system must be effective and robust for the entire plant to operate with good output. The pump selection should be based on application, keeping wear and tear in mind. Pumps must handle aggressive fluids without clogging or facing corrosion or abrasion issues.
