0前言可持续发展是纺织工业一直关注的重点。在整个供应链中,其面临的挑战是如何优化生产制造工艺,以满足持续增长的需求,维持或降低成本,同时减少对环境的影响。2011年,美国棉花公司完成了有关棉花行业中棉纤维和棉织物生命周期清单分析(LCI)和生命周期评估(LCA)的首次研究工作(棉花基金的一个项目)。结果表明,在棉制成衣的生命周期中,消费者使用阶段对环境的影响要大于纤维生产或纺织品制造供应链过程,因而具有极大的提升潜 0 Foreword Sustainable development is the textile industry has been the focus of attention. The challenge in the entire supply chain is how to optimize the manufacturing process to meet the growing demand, maintain or reduce costs, and reduce the impact on the environment. In 2011, Cotton Incorporated completed its first study (a project of the Cotton Fund) on the Cotton Industry Life Cycle Inventory Analysis (LCI) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for cotton fibers in the cotton industry. The results show that in the life cycle of cotton garments, the impact of consumer use on the environment is greater than the fiber or textile manufacturing supply chain process, which has great potential to enhance the potential
