<p>The fast expansion of the textile industry has led to a growing waste problem, with enormous volumes of cotton-based products being burnt or dumped in landfills, seriously polluting the environment. This study investigates a sustainable solution to this problem by chemically recycling and valorising wood pulp, post-consumer cotton waste, and pre-consumer cotton into high-value nitrocellulose. Alkaline pulping is used to extract cellulose, and the Box-Behnken response surface approach is employed to optimise the parameters of controlled nitration using sulfuric and nitric acids. FTIR examination revealed distinctive nitro group peaks at 1272 cm⁻¹, while CHNS analysis showed Nitrogen levels between 11.01% and 11.49%, confirming the effective conversion. Notably, post-consumer waste produced 11.17% Nitrogen, demonstrating that textile waste can be a sustainable substitute for virgin resources. By converting low-value trash into valuable ingredients for propellants and lacquers, this method advances the ideas of the circular economy.</p>

<p>The major source of the variance in the environmental system is the dramatic increase in carbon emission (CO2). Deterioration on the massive scale is compelled in the green house companies due to the fact that green product is life cycle very limited (summer). The modern companies (green companies especially) are striving to simplify their current inventories processes so as to carry out the maximum profitability in terms of the environmental issues. To gain the economic and ecological benefits, they must make a sustainable system of inventory. The second similarity to the modern inventory system is the inflation factor that has steadily risen throughout the years during the pandemic of COVID-19 to most of the items. Due to the topicality of these concerns, the contemporary study focuses on the notion of green technology investment to prevent not only the carbon release produced by the use of the transport system but also the application of preservation technology to control the disintegrating character of the latter under the impact of inflation. The existing model was considered to be an economic order quantity model having a scheme of advance payment, the variable holding cost, and the demand rate based on the size of the amount on hand. A number of sub cases have been performed through the use of numerical examples to test the validity of the proposed model. The sensitivity analysis depicts the observation of the positive effects of controllable deterioration and emission of carbon. The results revealed that the system cost cuts by 5.96 percent as a result of putting funds in the green technology and preservation technology.</p>
