A battery powered approach to pressurised spinning: Introducing the sustainability concept and shaping the future of fibre production methodologies

Industrial applications have always aimed to scale up manufacturing methods in size and capacity. However, the sustainable future of the pressurised spinning method, along with other fibre manufacturing techniques for functional applications, is likely to shift toward more compact solutions. In this regard, the process can be designed to be available to anyone who wants to benefit from the advantages of the concept. Thus, the idea is to make it accessible for everyone, sustainable in terms of energy, and environmentally with respect to material selection, aiming for a sustainable future by reducing energy consumption and eliminating the use of harsh chemicals. Hence, this work designs, constructs, and explores a battery powered pressurised spinning device and systematically evaluates the energy efficiency and performance of the system, highlighting the key points crucial for contributing to the sustainability concept with regard to energy usage and materials selection aspects without compromising the performance of the method. • A battery powered pressurised spinning device for fibre production was designed and built. • The system optimised energy efficiency while maintaining high performance fibre manufacturing. • Off-grid approach and portability of the system enabled a diverse range of applications. • Energy consumption and cost analysis confirmed reduced environmental impact. • Sustainable materials and green manufacturing methods were used.
