The Procter and Gamble Company, Miami Valley Labs, Cincinnati, Ohio 45252, USA
Environ Toxicol Chem 25:1268-74. 2006..Results from this reevaluation provided a more realistic profile of both historical AE removal during wastewater treatment as well as the occurrence of AE in U.S. surface waters...
Risk assessment approach for untreated wastewater using the QUAL2E water quality modelD C McAvoy
Procter and Gamble Company, Miami Valley Laboratory, 11810 East Miami Road, Ross, Cincinnati, OH 45061, USA
Chemosphere 52:55-66. 2003..Results from this study support the use of QUAL2E for assessing the risk of consumer product ingredients in riverine systems receiving untreated wastewater...
Measurement of triclosan in wastewater treatment systemsDrew C McAvoy
The Procter and Gamble Company, Miami Valley Laboratory, Cincinnati, OH 45253 8707, USA
Environ Toxicol Chem 21:1323-9. 2002..Based on results from this study, the chlorinated analogues and biotransformation by-product of TCS are expected to be very low in receiving waters and sludge-amended soils...
Removal and environmental exposure of alcohol ethoxylates in US sewage treatmentS W Morrall
Procter and Gamble Company, Cincinnati, OH, USA
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf 64:3-13. 2006..The total-flow-weighted average AE effluent concentration was 3.64 microg/L...
Evaluation of an inactivation procedure for determining the sorption of organic compounds to activated sludgeK M Kerr
Proctor and Gamble Company, Miami Valley Laboratories, Ross, Ohio 45061, USA
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf 47:314-22. 2000....
Integration of aquatic fate and ecological responses to linear alkyl benzene sulfonate (LAS) in model stream ecosystemsS E Belanger
Environmental Science Department, The Procter and Gamble Company, Cincinnati, OH 45253 8707, USA
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf 52:150-71. 2002..A low or no uncertainty factor could be applied to the result...
Investigation of an onsite wastewater treatment system in sandy soil: sorption and biodegradation of linear alkylbenzene sulfonateJon Doi
Aqua Survey, 499 Point Breeze Road, Flemington, New Jersey 08822, USA
Environ Toxicol Chem 21:2617-22. 2002..The three soils showed 49.8 to 83.4% LAS mineralization (percentage of theoretical CO2) over 45- or 59-d test periods. These results demonstrate that subsurface soils in this system have the potential to sorb and biodegrade LAS...
Investigation of an onsite wastewater treatment system in sandy soil: site characterization and fate of anionic and nonionic surfactantsAllen M Nielsen
Sasol North America, 12024 Vista Parke Drive, Austin, Texas 78726-4050, USA
Environ Toxicol Chem 21:2606-16. 2002..Therefore, this study indicates that LAS, AE, and AES are readily removed from groundwater in soils below septic system drainfields even in situations with minimal unsaturated soil zones...
The influence of untreated wastewater to aquatic communities in the Balatuin River, The PhilippinesScott D Dyer
Procter and Gamble Company, Miami Valley Laboratories, 11810 East Miami River Rd, Ross, Cincinnati, OH 45061, USA
Chemosphere 52:43-53. 2003..The lack of recovery observed was attributed to influences of low DO, high ammonia and poor colonization from upstream and downstream reaches due to organically-enriched discharges..
Modeling nonsteady-state conditions and kinetics of mass transport for hydrophobic compounds in activated-sludge treatmentBruce E Rittmann
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois 60208 3109, USA
Water Environ Res 75:273-80. 2003..Finally, the importance of mass-transport kinetics between the aqueous and sorbed phases suggests that research should be focused on this poorly understood mechanism in activated sludge...
Investigation of an onsite wastewater treatment system in sandy soil: modeling the fate of surfactantsDrew C McAvoy
The Procter and Gamble Company, 6110 Center Hill Avenue, Cincinnati, Ohio 45224, USA
Environ Toxicol Chem 21:2623-30. 2002..However, the model was appropriate and useful as a screening tool for the sorbable organic compounds studied. The applicability of the model to other classes of compounds should be assessed before broader application...
