it encircles organic substances or molecules till useful microorganisms,protozoa,bacteria can not digest the organic waste
I'm encountering with surfactants from detergents used for
washing machine and they're damaging most of all microorganisms that
i raised on plastic medias in the treatment tank
with some chemical components in it ,just in 30 days, they seem to kill all my foster microorganisms and the waste water is worst as the treatment plant failed.
if anyone know how to fight with this surfactant please recommend at

PS: first sign i observed that the attached film of organisms started stripping off the media.
What else can I help you with?
Why does oil miscible in solution of surf and water?
Presumably you mean surfactant and water? A classic surfactant molecule has a polar, hydrophilic end and a non-polar hydrocarbon liophilic end. With enough of a suitable surfactant, oil droplets will form with the liophilic part of surfactant molecules dissolved in the droplets and water molecules attached to the hydrophilic part of the surfactant. The oil disperses in the water.
What is the head of a surfactant molecule?
The head of a surfactant molecule is typically hydrophilic, meaning it is attracted to water. This hydrophilic head allows surfactants to dissolve in water and interact with other molecules.
What are solid shampoos?
Basically it is detergent (surfactant/soap) but without water or with very little water.
Is a surfactant a heterogeneous mixture?
No, a surfactant is a type of molecule that can lower the surface tension between two substances and is typically a homogeneous mixture when dissolved in water.
Which substance greatly reduces the attractive forces among the water molecules lining the alveoli?
Surfactant is the substance that greatly reduces the attractive forces among the water molecules lining the alveoli. It is composed of lipids and proteins and plays a crucial role in lowering surface tension, which prevents alveolar collapse and facilitates easier breathing. By reducing surface tension, surfactant helps maintain alveolar stability during the respiratory cycle.
The role of surfactant in relation to water?
Surfactant is used in the lungs to break water tension within the alveoli. Without it, the alveoli will collapse and you will suffocate and die.
Is water considered a surfactant?
No, water is not considered a surfactant. Surfactants are compounds that lower the surface tension between two substances, while water is a polar molecule that acts as a solvent.
The lipophilic tail of a surfactant molecule is considered to be?
The lipophilic tail of a surfactant molecule is considered to be hydrophobic, meaning it repels water and is attracted to nonpolar substances such as oil or grease. This allows the surfactant to interact with both water and oil, helping to emulsify them and form stable mixtures.

What describes the role of surfactant in the respiratory system?
Surfactant helps reduce surface tension within the alveoli, thus preventing each alveolus from callapsing as air moves in and out during respiration.

No, a surfactant is a type of molecule that can lower the surface tension between two substances and is typically a homogeneous mixture when dissolved in water.
What stores water and waste inside the cell?
The vacuole is responsible for storing water, nutrients, and waste inside a cell. It helps maintain cell structure and turgor pressure, and plays a role in intracellular digestion and waste removal.
What role does science have with your water?
we toss waste in the rivers science has taught us better methods to remove the waste before we drink it. economics and law teach us how to create more waste and how to hide the waste
What stores water and waste inside of a cell?
the vacuole stores water and waste inside of a cell by:rambo
Suspensions can be wetted before adding water by using a wetting agent or a?
surfactant
