14. Textile Noise Pollution Control
The textile industrial noise may be avoided by keeping the industries
far from residential areas
In spinning noise can be reduced by elastomeric spindle elastomeric
spindles and elastomeric ring holders.
Proper maintenance and lubrication of machine parts
Replacement of metal parts with rubber or nylon coated material
instead of metal.
Tightening of loose parts to avoid vibration
Muhammad Fahad Ansari 12IEEM14
15. Textile Noise Pollution Control
Use anti vibration rubber sheet
Use vibration isolators to prevent noise transmitted through the base
of machine
Use sound absorbers
Use disposable ear corded ear plugs
