Notes:
With the emphasis being given to the development of biologically soft detergents, it is necessary to establish eriteria defining biodegradability of these materials. It is the authors' opinion that a biologically soft detergent should have the following characteristics: (1) Under normal operations the material should be 85% removable by activated sludge. (2) Normally high discharges of the detergent should not influence biological activity. (3) The detergent should ultimately degrade to carbon dioxide and water.
