From the very beginning of civilization man used different plants that were available to him and he used them to make clothes and shoes. The current situation in the world hasn't changed because such production is still practiced. The problems of today's textile industry start from breeding plants themselves which produce textiles because of the excessive use of various pesticides, insecticides and fungicides that harm the environment. It also leads to the excessive and careless use of natural resources like water. Textile factories through various processes of textile use again many chemicals that were previously discharged into nature without any control together with the waste water. The last few decades man has faced a number of climate changes and because of its impacts on the environment he began to worry about the proper and environmentally friendly textile production, as well as recycling textile. Many methods of recycling and reuse of recycled materials have been applied in construction and insulation purposes, the automotive industry and the furniture industry. In the process of recycling of textiles all segments of the techonological process are important but sanitary aspects are particularly interesting. In the overall process of collecting and recycling textile waste we are generally talking about the shed, often contaminated clothing. This paper explains in detail the whole process of recycling with a foucs on sanitary aspects.
