Sustainable applications, detergent technology

All of the above, particularly those parameters or factors that affect surfactant properties, which make up 10-30% of detergent formulations, as well as sustainability and environment-related properties of the formulation components [7,8], are expected to play a key role in their application. Consequently, the challenge ahead is not only to formulate concentrated cleaners and surfactant-based detergents but also to ensure the providing of environmentally friendly technologies that deliver the benefits customers have come to expect at a cost they are willing to pay while in compliance with sustainability.
