FARIA, C.V. Removal and Degradation of Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate of Laundry Wastewater Diluted in Sewage. 2015. 63 f. Dissertação (Mestrado) – Escola de Engenharia de São Carlos, Universidade de São Paulo, São Carlos, 2015. The removal of the surfactant Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS) of wastewater of a commercial laundry was studied in an EGSB (Expanded granular sludge bed). This wastewater was diluted in sewage. The useful volume of the reactor was of 1,8 L. The whole operation occurred on mesophilic conditions, to HRT (Hydraulic Retention Time) was 36 hours, the upflow speed of 4 m/h and recirculation flow of 8,5 L/h. The laundry waste water was diluted until achieve 20 mg/L of LAS on the reactor feed. The system was operated in three stages. In the first operation stage water supply was used to dilute the wastewater laundry; in the second stage used a mixture of water supply and sewage for dilution of wastewater laundry and 50 % of the composition was sewage; and finally, in the last stage of operation is only used sewage as a diluent of wastewater. In the first stage was required addition of sodium bicarbonate as buffering agent. All the stages was applied COD (Chemical oxygen demand) and LAS influent 341 ± 216 mg/L and 18,8 ± 7,3 mg/L, respectively. The addition of sewage affected the surfactant removal, which on the first stage (Stage I) represented 77,2 ± 14,9 % and on the final stage (Stage III) became 55,3 ± 18,4 % of LAS removal. However, while removing of LAS decreased the COD removal increased from 57 ± 16 % to 65 ± 10 %, respectively, to Stage I and Stage III . Furthermore, due to the addition of sewage was checked an increased on the size of the grain from 3,67 ± 1,83 mm (Stage I) to 4,97 ± 1,99 mm (Stage II); and also the concentration of total solids into the reactor, from 5,79 g/L (Stage I) to 9,50 g/L (Stage III). By mass balance LAS was found a remove of 69 % of LAS, wherein 67 % were removed by degradation and 2 % by adsorption of the surfactant in the biomass. Finally, through analysis by GC/MS (gas chromatograph/mass spectrometry) 17 substances were observed in the influent and only 4 in the effluent, such as, mercaptans, hydrocarbons, amines and amides. Most of them are toxic to aquatic organisms and are present in cleaning products and personal hygiene.
