Phosphate ban:no measurable impact on water quality

摘要

A ban on automatic dishwater detergents (ADDs) containing phosphates would not have a measurable impact on water quality,according to research conducted by The Soap and Detergent Association (SDA).SDA retained ENSR International (Westford,Massachusetts),an international consultancy with significant experience in water quality assessment,to analyze the potential impact of eliminating phosphorus from machine diswhashing detergents on Massachusetts' waters and Vermont's Lake Champlain.
