∙ 12y agoDetergents that can be degraded by bacteria are called biodegradable detergents. Such detergents have straight hydrocarbon chains. For example: sodium lauryl sulphate
Detergents that cannot be degraded by bacteria are called non-biodegradable detergents. Such detergents have highly-branched hydrocarbon chains. For example: sodium -4- (1, 3, 5, 7- tetra methyl octyl) benzene sulphonate

∙ 12y agoSome detergents are biodegradable. You just have to find them.
Cationic detergents are surfactants with a positively charged head group. They are commonly used in fabric softeners and hair conditioners. An example of a cationic detergent is cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB).
biodegradable is a stupid word for fat chickens
There are many kinds of waste, and many ways of disposing of waste. Most communities have sewage treatment plants, which treat sewage waste. Improvements in how this is done are coming rapidly. Industrial waste might or might not be biodegradable. For example inorganic chemicals are not normally biodegradable. On the other hand, leather scraps and wood chips are. Some non-biodegradable waste is put into landfills, and some is recycled for reuse. Biodegradable industrial waste may be digested in special reaction vessels. Farm wastes may be similarly treated. Hazardous waste is specially treated, as required. Nuclear waste is left in casks at the plants that created it, until someone makes a decision about what to do with it. Household waste is often segregated, as required by municipalities. Plastics and metals, which are not biodegradable, are recycled. Hazardous waste goes into special containers, often on designated days. Biodegradable waste is often composted, either by the municipality, or by the resident. Biodegradable waste can give off methane gas as it decomposes. Methane is a powerful global warming gas, much more powerful than carbon dioxide. In places where a sufficient amount of methane is generated, it is often used to generate heat or electricity. In other words, the answer is Yes.
The biodegradable bag quickly broke down when exposed to sunlight and moisture. This biodegradable packaging is made from plant-based materials that will easily decompose in a compost bin. It's important to choose biodegradable products to minimize environmental impact and promote sustainability.
It is important for items to be biodegradable if they are likely to end up in landfill (e.g. bin bags). This is because plastic can take hundreds of years to decompose and we have very limited landfill space. The best method of disposal is re-use or recycling so biodegradable waste such as paper and card would be better off recycled or used in your compost bin. If waste is composted instead of discarded in landfill then this will reduce emissions of the greenhouse gas methane, which is produced from a landfill site when biodegredable waste decomposes.
It is a type of plastic however it is biodegradable and does not give off any gases

The advantages of synthetic detergents over soaps are :Synthetic detergents can be used even in case of hard water whereas soaps fail to do so. Unlike soaps, detergents do not form insoluble calcium and magnesium salts in hard water. They give lather in hard water also.Synthetic detergents can be used in the acidic medium while soaps fail to do so because of their hydrolysis to free acids.Synthetic detergents are soluble in water and hence form more lather than soaps.Synthetic detergents have a better cleansing action than soaps.Detergents do not cause irritation to the skin while soaps have this problem.
Synthetic detergents are effective in hard water and do not form scum like soaps. They have stronger cleaning power and are less prone to causing skin irritation compared to traditional soaps. Additionally, synthetic detergents can be easily formulated to target specific cleaning needs.
