Intercalation compounds of alkyl sulfonates into layered double hydroxides (LDH) have been directly synthesized. From the X-ray diffraction data and the alkyl sulfonates size, the orientation of the intercalated alkyl sulfonate into the layered double hydroxide was determined. The intercalated alkyl sulfonate is arranged with molecular chain perpendicular to the hydroxide layer with an antiparallel pattern.

The contamination concentrations of the alkyl benzene sulfonate (ABS) pollution in the Han river were investigated at 3 sites from July through september, 1977. The samples were taken on the upper, the middle, and the lower Han river and 5points of each part, respectively. The contamination concentrations of ABS pollution in the river were 0.012 p.p.m of the upper site, 0.206 p.p.m of the middle site, and 0.486 p.p.m of the lower site in average, respectively. Consequently, the contamination concentrations of ABS pollution in the Han river were the highest at the lower site, where is between second Han river bridge and Nan Ji island.

Linear alkyl sulfonates (LAS) constitute a large fraction of the surfactants used in cleaning processes in households, trade and industry Despite the industrial significance and the possible environmental impact of these compounds, the fast and inexpensive determination of LAS concentrations is still a difficult task. In this study, near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy which is a rapid spectroscopic analysis method compared with a traditional analytical method for the measurement of LAS concentration such as HPLC, GC and standard wet chemistry method. NIR spectra of LAS between 0.313 and 25.0% (w/v) in water were utilized to develop a calibration model. The best results (R ＝ 0.998, SEP ＝ 0.244% (w/v)) obtained by using partial least-squares regression with spectral data treatment and 2nd derivatization were comparable to the results (SEC ＝ 0.186% (w/v), SEP ＝ 0.206% (w/v)) obtained by using multiple linear least-squares regression (MLR). However, models based on derivative spectra have no significant advantage with MLR.

A bacterium producing alkaline cellulase was isolated from soil, leaf mold and compost, and was identified as alkalophilic Bacillus sp. HSH-810 by morphological, cultural and biochemical determination. The optimum cul-ture condition of Bacillus sp. HSH-810 for the growth and alkaline cellulase production was $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 10.0. The maximum alkaline cellulase production was obtained when 1.0%(w/v) CMC, 0.5%(w/v) peptone, 0.02%(w/v) $CaCl_2$ and 0.02(w/v) $CoCl_2$ were used as carbon source, nitrogen source and mineral source, respectively. The optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme activity were pH 10.5 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. This enzyme was fairly stable in the pH range of 6.0-13.0 and at $50^{\circ}C$. For the effect of surfactants, the activity of alkaline cellulase was stable in the presence of sodium-$\alpha$-olefin sulfonate (AOS), sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS), Tween 20 and Tween 80, but inhibited by the presence of 0.1 linear alkyl-benzene sulfonate (LAS) sig-nificantly.

To give a positive effect on dispersion behavior of high performance fibers $Vectran^{(R)}$ in water with reference to wet-laid nonwoven technology, 9 kinds of sulfonate type anionic surfactants were chosen to study. After dispersion experiment, the number and the area occupied by fibers in each sample were counted and figured to calculate the index of dispersion in conjunction with quadrat analysis. Similar tendency was observed in the results of two experiments. The sample without addition of any surfactant resulted in the most aggregated dispersion behavior. As the length of alkyl group attached to sulfonate increases, the sample shows more dispersed behavior. The sample with the surfactant having the aryl group and the longer alkyl group shows the most dispersed behavior and it can be seen with the naked eye as well.

A microbial strain capable of degrading ABS (alkyl benzene sulfonate) was isolated and identified as Pseudomonas caryophylli. During the incubation of the isolated bacterium in a synthetic effluent containing 10 ppm of ABS, the extents of removal of ABS, BOD and COD were 40％, 89％ and 71％, respectively. The degradability of ABS by pure culture with the isolated strain was twice higher than that of mixed culture with natural microflora. The biodegradability of some commercial detergents in Korea by the isolated organism was as follows: Hiti 46.2％, Kleenup 37.5％, No.1 29％, and OK 27.9％.

The biodegradability of some anionic surfactants were investigated using biological oxygen consumption measurement at different temperatures. As test surfactants, soap, alkyl sulfate (AS), alpha olefin sulfonate (AOS), alkyl polyoxyethylene sulfate (AES), linear alkylbezene sulfonate(LAS), microbial surfactants such as sophorose lipid (sopholipid) and spiculisporic acid (S-acid), were used. The test solution were incubated at $5^{\circ}C$, $18^{\circ}C$ and $32^{\circ}C$, respectively. The comparative rates of biodegradation were in accordance with the results obtained from the surface tension measurement and methylene blue method. The results of comparative blodegradabilities of the surfactants were as follows; soap, AS>AES>AOS>LAS at $18^{\circ}C$ and $32^{\circ}C$. However, at$ 5^{\circ}C$, the biodegradation rate of soap was better than other surfactants. Considering the actual environment of the river, it was concluded that the biological oxygen consumption rate method at lower temperature was more practical than the current method such as methylene blue assay with adapted shaking flask culture at $25^{\circ}C$

The detergencies of these new functional anionic surfactants, sodium monoglycerol ${\alpha}$-sulfonated alkanoates, were investigated and compared with those of two commercial surfactants, that is, sodium ${\alpha}$-sulfonated alkanoic acid methyl ester and sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate. According to the variation of the hydrophobic alkyl chain length, the order of detergency was shown to be $C_{16}$>$C_{18}$>$C_{14}$>$C_{12}$. From the comparision experiment for the detergency and the various fundamental properties of two other surfactants, it was found that sodium monoglycerol ${\alpha}$-sulfonated hexadecanonate has the most outstanding characteristics of detergency. Possibly this result shows light on its industrial application as a nonpolluting detergent.
