Abstract: A filter for capturing dyestuff is provided. The filter includes a housing defining an inlet. The housing further includes an outlet spaced from the inlet. The housing further includes a cartridge in fluid communication with the inlet and the outlet. The inlet is adapted to receive effluent including dyestuff and the outlet is adapted to release the effluent. The filter further includes a substrate disposed within the cartridge. The substrate includes an active material. The active material has an affinity for the dyestuff. The dyestuff is present in the effluent at the inlet in a first amount and not present in the effluent at the outlet or present in a second amount with the second amount less than the first amount. The filter is composed of a textile composition made fiber or fabric which can be recycled by mulching back into a dyed fiber upcycling the normally wasted dyestuff, to now be reused in an upcycled dyed textile production.

Abstract: A system and method for cationization of textiles preferably starting with the dry raw greige tubular or open width goods that are made from either a cellulosic or cellulosic blended fabric. The system can include an inducer apparatus with chemical dosification system. In a preferred embodiment, the dry tubular goods are sent in a flat configuration to a first impregnation tank where it receives a multi-functional reaction fluid. After leaving the first impregnation tank, the now wet fabric is turned (when in a tubular width fabric form) by a turning unit and then sent to a second impregnation tank where it again is exposed to the multi-functional reaction fluid. The turning of the fabric causes the side edge positions of the flat tubular fabric to change its physics dynamics which allows for the multi-functional reaction fluid to be evenly applied to the entire fabric. Turning is not needed for open with fabric as it is flat, thus having only one dynamic when analyzed with physics.
