Abstract: A system including: a machine for processing textiles and configured to treat, within the same, textiles with a gaseous mixture including ozone gas; and a dehumidification system connected to, or integrated into, the machine and configured to reduce a humidity of the gaseous mixture. Also, a method for processing textiles, including: in a machine for processing textiles, treating textiles with a gaseous mixture that includes ozone gas; and, using a dehumidification system connected to, or integrated into, the machine for reducing a humidity of the gaseous mixture.

Abstract: A system and a method for treating a textile material with ozone gas. The system includes: an ozone gas supply system, a hollow chamber fillable with ozone provided by said gas supply system, a textile-feeding port connected to said chamber and comprising a first liquid fillable tank, a textile-discharging port connected to said chamber and comprising a second liquid fillable tank, guide rollers, driving rollers, at least one tension compensator located inside the hollow chamber. The system is adapted for implementing the method, the latter including: using the system and providing liquid to said first and second tanks, providing ozone gas to said hollow chamber, driving the textile material to pass tensed through the system while controlling its tension using the tension compensators. The use of the tension compensators prevents the formation of ozone induced defects on the textile material.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for treating cloths by spraying with a chemical dispersion including a liquid, the method including: inserting the cloths in a drum that is rotatable about its longitudinal axis, the drum including paddles, where for each of at least two of the paddles the paddle's longitudinal axis forms an angle ? of between 5 degrees and 85 degrees with the geometrical orthogonal projection of the paddle's longitudinal axis on a geometrical plane which is normal to the drum's longitudinal axis; with a dispersion supply system providing the chemical dispersion to spraying elements; with rotation elements rotating the drum about its longitudinal axis and reversing the rotational direction at least once, and with spraying elements spraying the drum's interior with the dispersion, the spraying elements being attached a to movable door of a chamber enclosing the drum. The apparatus is adapted for executing the method.

Abstract: A water reclamation system that includes a primary module with separation capabilities and a dirty water tank, a secondary module with a treatment tank, ozone generating capabilities, a recirculation circuit and a catalyst filter, a tertiary module with filtration capabilities, and a treated water tank. The system may also include a desalination module, a turbulence promoter inside the treatment tank and/or water electrical conductivity measuring elements for water electrical conductivity control in the treated water tank. The water reclamation system has overall measures smaller than 15 meters of length, 4 meters of width or 3 meters of height and the nominal design flow of water to be treated is between 0.5 and 25 m3/h. A corresponding water treatment method is also provided.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for desizing and/or shrinking a textile fabric, the textile fabric having a length and a width, the method including moving, lengthwise, the fabric, and wetting the fabric within a first pool of liquid, the first pool of liquid including water; passing the fabric through a chamber, and in the chamber contacting the fabric with at least one heatable roller heated at a treatment temperature; soaking the fabric with a main pool of liquid, the main pool of liquid including water; and treating the fabric with ozone. The apparatus includes a first module for wetting the fabric, a second module with a heatable roller for heating the fabric, a third module for soaking the fabric, and fourth module for treating the fabric with ozone. The second module may optionally be integrated with the first module.
