- Adsorption and desorption constants:
- Kp (C12 LAS): 3210 L/kg (log Kp = 3.5)
Kp (commercial C11.6 LAS mixture): 2,500 L/kg (log Kp = 3.4) - Details on results (Batch equilibrium method):
- Sorption equilibrium was achieved rapidly, within 5-10 minutes. Desorption was less pronounced, but still reached rapid equilibration. The sludge-water partition coefficient Kp of 3210 L/kg volatile suspended solids is reported. Applying the same QSAR for the commercial C11.6 LAS mixture results in a value of log Kp = 3.4 (i.e., Kp = 2500 L/kg), consistent with Feijtel et al. 1999 (see section 3.3.1(b)). In the other experiments conducted in this study, only 2-8% was present as dissolved C12 LAS, with the remaining 92-98% adsorbed to the sludge. Despite this high degree of sorption, more than 99% of the LAS load was removed by biodegradation, showing that the adsorbed fraction as well as the soluble fraction of LAS is readily available for biodegradation.
- Conclusions:
- The log Kp for commercial LAS was 3.4.
- Executive summary:
The adsorption-desorption of LAS (read across) in activated sludge was determined in batch experiments. The Kp for commercial LAS was 2,500 L/kg, with a log Kp of 3.4.

Additional information
The adsorption-desorption of LAS (read across) in activated sludge was determined in batch experiments. The Kp for commercial LAS was 2,500 L/kg, corresponding to a log Kp of 3.4. Sorption equilibrium was achieved rapidly, within 5-10 minutes. Desorption was less pronounced, but still reached rapid equilibration. A sludge-water partition coefficient Kp of 3,210 L/kg volatile suspended solids is also reported for C12 LAS (log Kp = 3.5) based on the work of Feijtel et al. (1999). Those researchers found that only 2-8% of commercial LAS was present as dissolved C12 LAS, with the remaining 92-98% adsorbed to the sludge. Despite this high degree of sorption, more than 99% of the LAS load was removed by biodegradation, showing that the adsorbed fraction as well as the soluble fraction of LAS is readily available for biodegradation.
The EPISuite calculated Koc value for the second read across substance (MIPA) was 0.949 L/kg.
