Untersuchung des Verhaltens von LAS ın Abwasser mittels höherer UV-Spektrometrie
Study of LAS behaviour in sewage using advanced UV spectrophotometry
Abstract
Linear alkylbenzenesulphonate( LAS) determination can be an important factor in the control of waste water discharges into natural environment. As it is the main anionic surfactant continuously used world wide it can be used as an indicator of detergents in water. The purpose of this work is the study of LAS behaviour in sewage using directUV absorption spectra deconvolution. This method is applied in order to observe LAS distribution and degradation during biological and physico-chemical sewage treatment up to the discharge into rivers and to assess the effects of sample preservation or pretreatmenton its determination
