Yes, washing soda (sodium carbonate) is environmentally safe. Sodium is ubiquitous in the environment; it is one of the ions that make up table salt, as well as being a component of sand and many other minerals. Carbonate is found in limestone and some other minerals. The main contribution of sodium carbonate to washing (whether dishes, clothes, or whatever) is to increase the pH (make the water more basic) so as to help convert fats to soaps. It does this job better if mixed with equal parts of borax (as in twenty mule team).
High efficiency (or "HE") detergent is designed to produce fewer suds (foam and bubbles) than regular detergent. So, yes, it is important to use HE detergent if you're using an HE washing machine! Using regular detergent in an HE machine would be like using regular dish washing detergent in an automatic dishwasher - imagine the foam! Using HE detergent in a regular machine, however, is just fine - only difference is that you would notice fewer suds.
No if it is the dish washing soap for the sink. The liquid dishwasher soap can be used.
i don't think it would work well at all. it might leave residue on your clothes.
I asked this question because I have a disability and I want to know if there is a automatic or hand washing unit.
detergent it cleans you lol Depends which type of detergent you mean. Dish detergent? Or laundry? If its laundry, powder is better because its more eco-friendly, and its a lot cheaper too. Plus, you can use powder detergent mixed with water and use it as a stain treater to your clothes! Dish detergent: Liquid is better for hand-washing dishes, and you may chose powdered or liquid in your dishwasher, powdered is cheaper though. And i recommend dawn liquid detergent for hand-washing

Polymers that are water-soluble, which means they dissolve in water. These polymers are often used to wrap products such as dishwasher tablets and pouches containing detergent for washing machines.
You can put the dishwasher tablet in the silverware basket. it would be the same as putting it in the.bottom of dishwasher. It will dissolve either way but you wonβt get the most from the tablet this way. The dispenser opens during the middle of the cycle.
Industrial Detergent for Garment and Fabric Washing.
If it is a blanket then you put it in the washing machine. You use cold water and wool laundry detergent. An alternative is to get it dry cleaned.
For washing dishes and pans.
Dish liquid is designed to generate a lot of suds. A dishwasher cycle will stir up excessive suds that the machine won't be able to rinse away. Some dishwashers will stop or break down if this happens. If you're out of the regular dish washing detergent, rinse the dishes well before you put them in and then run the dishwasher without detergent. The hot water and dry cycle will sanitize dishes sufficiently. Or, put the dishes in, close the door and leave it until you can get some detergent.
