Abstract
This article presents a systematic integrative review of the scientific literature on banana farming waste and its potential utilization in the textile industry, particularly in relation to apparel fiber. The analysis encompasses the environmental issues in the textile industry as well as the challenges of agro-industrial waste. Additionally, the potential of banana farming waste, particularly banana fiber, fibers an alternative to mitigate the impacts of both industries, with a focus on textile material production, is emphasized. The utilization of agro-industrial waste from banana production for textile manufacturing, aligning with Circular Economy (CE) principles and, consequently, aiming to meet Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), is highlighted. The research covered ScienceDirect, Scopus, Web of Science, and SpringerLink databases, additionally utilizing secondary sources such as reports from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMF). As a result, the final portfolio consisted of 71 articles, which played a significant role in achieving the objective of this study, which was to compile research from the past 10 years on the use of banana farming waste in the textile industry, considering the benefits, challenges, and emerging approaches for its utilization in novel applications.
