| Summary: | adsorption processes. Recently there has been an increased Biological treatment requires that the 'TNT be desorbed and carried enhancement factors larger than I when compared to case of the silica the surfactants did not enhance the clay the surfactants were observed to be more successful at desorption enhancement capabilities of synthetic surfactants desorption of 'TNT from silica and clay. In the case of the desorption of TNT. Furthermore, a comparison of the desorption. Both surfactants carried enhancement factors dumped in designated disposal sites. Over the years the 'TNT enhancing desorption than deionized water. Both surfactants explosive. The production process generates large quantities has mostly remained in the first few feet of the soil around higher in the presence of deionized water then in the interest in the treatment of TNT using biological techniques. less than 1 when compared to the control. The desorption was of waste contaminated with TNT. Most of these wastes were presence of either type of surfactant. research was to study the influence of surfactants on the synthetic surfactant, at desorbing TNT from clay. In the the control. The biosurfactant performed better than the these dump sites. The transport of TNT has been hampered by transferred into the aqueous phase. The purpose of this Trinitrotoluene (TNT) has been the most commonly used with that of biosurfactants was carried out. We studied the |
