BOYTER Institute of Textile Technology USA Introduction Textile dyeing and all the related processes have a long history in the timeline of civilization. During this history the chemicals used have been researched synthesized developed and chosen to provide the consumer long life and continued fashion appeal of the garments furnishings or materials. To provide these qualities the chemicals used had to resist the effects of the environment. Materials were required that were durable fast light and water and not chemically degradable. However these same properties that protect the properties of the consumer material create problems for the textile dyeing industry when the chemicals are released into the environment. In 1986 Horning speaking of dyes stated that The regulatory climate of today is one of increasing complexity. 1 Today we might think of those as the simpler days of regulation. As regulatory agencies in the United States have addressed the chemicals associated with textile dyeing there have been two approaches. The bulk of the regulations have been those of general environment legislation while few have addressed specific chemicals although this trend is changing. Although environmental legislation related to textile processes was in place before the passage of the USEPA 1986 Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act Title III of SARA of 1986 began the increase in number and stringency of regulations that apply to textile dyeing and related processes. This was reaffirmed with the passage of the 1990 Pollution Prevention Act. Since then legislation has increased at the Federal state and even the local level. In the United States the approach on the Federal and state levels has been to create legislation that deals with the flow of materials in manufacturing and not with the different manufacturing sectors. This has led to regulations on air water wastewater solid wastes and consumer exposure. Then industry
