“…Due to all these reasons, many environmental and public health regulatory authorities have fixed stringent limits for anionic detergent as standard 0.5 mg/L for drinking water and relaxable up to 1.0 mg/L for other purposes (Rao, 1995). Surfactants removal operations involve processes such as chemical and electrochemical oxidation (Lissens, et al, 2003;Mozia, et al, 2005), membrane technology (Sirieix-Plénet, et al, 2003;Kowalska, et al, 2004;Fernández , et al, 2005), chemical precipitation (Shiau, et al, 1994;Talens-Alesson, et al, 2002), photocatalytic degradation (Rao and Dube, 1996;Ohtaki, et al, 2000;Zhang, et al, 2003), adsorption (Ogita, et al, 2000;Lin, et al, 2002;Adak, et al, 2005) and various biological methods (Matthew and Malcolm, 2000;Dhouib, et al, 2003;Chen, et al, 2005). Each has its merits and limitation in application.…”
