Detergent
A detergent is a surfactant or a mixture of
surfactants with cleaning properties in dilute
solutions.
Similar to soap but are more soluble in hard water.
Detergents work because they are amphiphilic:
partly hydrophilic, partly hydrophobic
Manufacturing Process
1)Spray drying


Manufacturing Process
2)Blending process
Environmental Impact
1)Create algae blooms in fresh water
Environmental Impact
2)Surfactant toxicity increase
Manufacturers Role
1)Biodegradable Detergents
manufacturers use biodegradable ingredients
in place of environmentally hazardous
biologically stable ingredients.
Manufacturers Role
2)Eco-Friendly Household Cleaning Products
Make lesser use of chemical ingredients. Non-
petroleum surfactants or vegetable oil soaps
can be used to replace synthetic surfactants
Conclusion
1)Manufacturing process
-Spray drying
-Blending Process
2)Environmental effects
-Algae bloom
-Surfactant toxicity
3)Manufacturer roles
-Biodegradable detergent
-Eco-friendly household cleaning products
