Objective
Washing and rinsing processes represent very important and cost intensive steps in SME dyeing houses and laundries. Rinsing and washing is mostly performed under weak process conditions and without any controlling due to lack of suitable sensors. In order to get high quality products and excellent fastness properties the goods are usually washed too long and too intensely. Such a non-controlled washing process is very time consuming and requires a lot of water and energy. Within this project, a very innovative online sensor-based WashControl system will be developed for use in discontinuous dyeing ranges and in laundries, which will particularly enable water savings of at least 30% and economic recycling of process water with membrane technology. The sensor-controlled washing is marked by a online-measurement of the removed stain, so that several fillings of the washing apparatus can be saved.
