Mike Hills will present a program on herbal dye plants that he helped Jane Haynes prepare and present to the Herb Society of America Annual Meeting in 2006. Great details and information on the history of plants used for dyeing fabric, leather, basketry, etc. Many of Jane's beautiful plant-dyed samples will be on hand for discussion and observation. Jane has made a study of the colors that can be created from our Arizona garden and native plants, since she moved here in the 1970's. With the aid of mordants, and the proper natural materials, the range of colors available will astound you.
A couple of interesting things around Dyer today, May 9. Here's one of them, Q643 running south in daylight. I don't know what the circumstances were, but this is last night's 643, Q643-08. Moving yesterday's freight today. Interesting trailing unit is HLCX 3816, who started out life as an L&N GP38-2. Wonder if it travelled through here when the L&N owned the Monon?
Egg is on the drying rack - just a board full of nails (grouped in threes to make egg stands). It's got a coat of varnish on, waiting for it to dry, and for the inside of the egg to dry out. I usually put eggs in a low-heat oven for several minutes to make sure the inside is completely dry, before I give them away.
Sewing machine has nothing to do with eggs, I just never finish one project before I start the next...
So I finally ordered an Azone XS Boy to try putting a resin Wataru head on but I wasn’t inspired at all by it so I decided to try a few other heads and surprisingly I ADORED my Petworks Usaggie bunny head on it.
I tried dyeing him with iDye Poly but since I couldn’t soak it for too long cuz I was trying to colour match it. It’s horribly patchy and uneven even with sealant on top but the match is pretty decent and I’m just gonna cover it up with clothes anyways.
Fun fact, this version of the Pure Neemo XS boy body is the “Cute version” which uses the hand sculpts from Petworks’ line of Ruruko dolls. And Usaggie dolls are also made by Petworks so this hybrid is made up of familiar parts lol.
It only feels like forever...the sun finally made an appearance today and the temps hit 50 degrees, a win-win situation. I turned on the scanner and heard the CSX RB DS talking to Q642. I just made it to the station in Dyer as he came flying through. Backlit, but that's winter for you when you're trying to shoot a northbound.
This is a favorite area of mine on the Bruce Peninsula. According to maps drawn by French explorers such as Sanson and Du Creux, this area is where a mission named St. Simon and St. Jude was located in the 1600s.
SIZING SOLUTION RECOVERY
Printing and dyeing sizing wastewater alkali reuse technology patent is the use of ceramic ultrafiltration membrane technology to concentrate sizing wastewater, which permeates directly backs to the sizing process, water and caustic soda are reused fully after treatment resulting in zero discharge. The technology has achieved industrial scale applications and access to a national invention patent.
1. Dyeing and sizing wastewater contains a large amount of refractory slurry, the slurry into the sewage treatment system, increasing the difficulty of biochemical treatment, making sewage treatment costs increase. Printing and dyeing sizing wastewater also contains a higher concentration of caustic soda (0.5% ~ 7%) and a certain amount of refining agent, with a high recovery value.
2. Using uf membrane technology, the printing and dyeing sizing wastewater concentration treatment, membrane treatment of the permeate directly to the sizing process, including water and caustic soda, etc. can be completely reused to achieve zero discharge of sewage treatment.
Refined water from a dying plant in Nantong is treated by ceramic membrane technology, project design daily capacity is 500m3 or more, yield meets the workshop reuse requirements.
INDIGO RECOVERY
The dye wastewater containing indigo is characterized by a dark blue color due to the presence of the dye not fixed to the fiber during the dyeing process.
The primary use for indigo is as a dye for cotton yarn, which is mainly for the production of denim cloth for blue jeans.
The wastewater containing indigo is characterized by a moderate amount of chemical oxygen demand (COD), pH, suspended solids, dissolved solids and a dark blue color, due to the presence of the dye not fixed to the fiber during the dyeing process.
JIUWU HI-TECH utilizes the unique integrated membrane systems for dye wastewater treatment, which recover the insoluble indigo dye, the production of a secondary commercial product from the waste stream through a by-product synergy process offers an attractive alternative to discharging the untreated effluent into municipal treatment plants or the environment.
WASHING EFFLUENTS
Washing is a finishing process applied to fibres, yarns, and fabrics.
Washing is normally carried out in hot water (40-100°C) in the presence of wetting agent and detergent. The detergent emulsifies the mineral oils and disperses the undissolved pigments. The choice of the surfactants may vary also depending on the type of fibre. Mixtures of anionic and non-ionic surfactants are commonly used. An important factor in the selection of a surfactant is its effectiveness in strongly alkaline conditions.
Washing effluents are mainly composed of soap, grease, synthetic detergents, detergents and a small amount of bacteria, coliform bacteria, viruses, and other harmful substances, has become an important source of water pollution.
After washing effluents are discharged into natural water, dissolved oxygen is consumed and slightly toxic to aquatic organisms, which can cause fish malformation and eutrophication caused by phosphate solvent.

Housed in the University of Glasgow’s Archives and Special Collections (ASC) and the Library Research Annexe (LRA) are a number of nineteenth century books about dyeing and printing, which hold beautifully patterned fabrics and colourful yarns between their pages. These books were originally used in the textile industry, and our collection holds both dyeing manuals – with technical instructions and scientific details about the dyes – and pattern books – which dyers used to list client orders and record experiments performed in their dye-house.
Many dye chemists working with and in the British dye industry became influential authors of dye manuals, including William Crookes, Frederick Crace-Calvert, David Smith, John J. Hummel, and Edmund Knecht. Chemists also wrote about the chemical properties and synthesis of the dyes in academic papers published by the likes of the Journal of the Chemical Society. Trade journals and magazines like Dyer and Colourist appeared in the 1880s, while in 1894 Arthur Green, an important industrial chemist and later professor of colour chemistry at Leeds University, published an English translation of a German textbook on organic dyestuff that later became the world famous Colour Index of the Society of Dyers and Colourists. Many published books and magazines included textile samples coloured with named dues attached to pages of technical information and dyeing instructions.
Dyeing manuals from 1857 to 1893 in the Library's collection have been central to research by Dr Anita Quye, Senior Lecturer in Conservation Science at the University's Centre for Textile Conservation and Technical Art History (CTCTAH)

Alkanet powder can be mixed with alcohol to create a strong anthotype dye. It produces a dark maroon-violet that exposes in 1-2 weeks.
