Metabolism of Organic Sulfonates by Activated Sludge
The problem of the persistence of synthetic detergents through biological sewage treatment devices and in rivers has been of great concern both in the United States and England. The organic configurations of the commercial alkyl benzene sulfonates that make up the bulk of the syndet washing products on the market today are ones that are resistant to metabolism by bacteria. This study was undertaken in the hope that some information about the mechanism of the metabolism of simple aromatic sulfonates may aid in the continuing research problem of removing syndets from sewage.
