Abstract
- The article reports on the collaboration between DyStar and RedElect Technologie in improving the environmental profile of indigo. Indigo is renowned as the dye used to color denim for blue jeans. German chemical maker BASF became the first company to produce synthetic indigo on an industrial scale in 1897. DyStar and RedElec anticipate interest in the use of electrochemistry in eliminating the reducing agent in indigo dye production.
