Removal of Motor Oil Stain from Cotton Fabric by Using Nonionic Surfactant Brij-30 and Its Effect on Biodegradation by Bacteria
This project describes on the removal of motor oil stain from fabric by using Brij-30 surfactant and its effect on biodegradation by bacteria. The selection of surfactant to remove the oil is important by considering its effect on environment. Brij-30 surfactant was used as it is biodegradable regar...
