Abstract: Adsorption isotherms of four Polyquaternium-10 polymers (PQ-10) (quaternary ammonium derivatives of hydroxyethyl cellulose) by activated sludge mixed liquor solids (MLS) were obtained using phenol method with matrix-matched calibration standards (low molecular mass JR-125 and LR-400 and high molecular mass JR-30M and LR-30M). Solution concentrations of all PQ-10 polymers at low dosing were negligible, within the limitation of the analytical method used. At some level of dosing…

The U.S. Oleochemical industry is the original "green" chemistry and has historically supplied raw materials used in the manufacture of cleaning products. Federal biofuels policies, via tax incentives and the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS2), provide an economic disadvantage to these traditional uses. The American Cleaning Institute (ACI) works to restore equitable access to feedstocks used in both the production of soaps and detergents and biofuels…
