Kimberly-Clark

Other companies with early involvement in developing nonwovens as textile replacements include Avondale Mills, Kimberly-Clark, The Kendall Company, and the West Point Manufacturing Company. Freudenburg of Germany, a worldwide producer of nonwoven interlinings (another woven fabric replacement), began efforts in the 1930s to find a substitute for leather (qv) (7).

Sublethal testing of the Kimberly-Clark final mill effluent indicated inhibition of growth in fathead minnow and Selenastrum capricornutum and inhibition of reproduction of Ceriodaphnia dubia during the period from 1994 to 2000. Zones of potential effects were estimated (Tab. 6) and plotted (Fig. 1) to illustrate the location of effluent concentrations > the lowest IC25 (%v/v) for each test.

Benthic taxa exhibiting significant differences in abundance (at a = 0.05) between reference and exposure areas were noted. If a taxon was considered to be relatively more tolerant of pollution (such as enrichment in pulp mill effluent), it was listed as an Enrichment Indicator Organism . On a scale from 1 to 10, these taxa have pollution tolerances from 6 to 10 (Moody, 2000). If a taxon was considered to be relatively less tolerant of pollution, it was listed as a Toxicity Indicator Organism . These taxa have pollution tolerances from 1 to 5. Species representing both types of indicator groups were found to show potential effluent-related effects at the Kimberly-Clark mill. The total number of potential effluent-related effects is calculated for comparison with the LTF method case study in Section 7.2.

A more sensitive fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) toxicity test was recently evaluated using the effluent from Kimberly-Clark (see case study 1). The short-term reproductive bioassay developed by Ankley et al. (2001) has a number of advantages. Various biological and biochemical endpoints can be assessed over only...

I get concerned, because my sister was a Phi Beta Kappa, a chemistry major, and she works for Kimberly-Clark, but she will not get a Ph.D. I am concerned that we are talking about the chemical workforce as if the Ph.D.s were the only participants there. While they are a good measure of how things are going, Ph.D.s are not the only ones there.
