Sanitation and Sanitary Products: Threats to Wastewater Systems
Sanitation and Sanitary Products: Threats to Wastewater Systems An STS Research Paper presented to the faculty of the School of Engineering and Applied Science University of Virginia by Dorian Nguyen March 27, 2020 On my honor as a University student, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment as defined by the Honor Guidelines for Thesis-Related Assignments. Signed: _________________________________________________ Approved: _______________________________________ Date ________________________ Peter Norton, Department of Engineering and Society 1 Sanitation and Sanitary Products: Threats to Wastewater Systems Most wastewater systems can handle only human waste and toilet paper, as both safely disintegrate in water. Marketers of “flushable wipes” claim they clean better than toilet paper and are flushable; however, “flushable” does not mean disintegrable. In the United States (U.S.), residents flush wipes and other products that accumulate and create blockages that require costly repairs (Mitchell & Thamsen, 2017). New York City spent over 18 million dollars from 2010 to 2015 clearing out obstructions caused by wipes, such as clogged pumps and backed-up pipes (Flegenheimer, 2015). Despite the severe negative consequences of flushing wet wipes, usage rises. Social norms of cleanliness influence residents to maintain meticulous bathrooms free of detritus and odors (Lockyer, 2003). Using and flushing wet wipes improves personal and bathroom sanitation; however, water authorities have pleaded with residents to flush only human waste and toilet paper. They wish to provide clean water for residents: the same participant group that is seemingly acting against them. Regardless, third-party manufacturers still call their products flushable and residents have acted accordingly. Residents and manufacturers utilize changing cleanliness norms to develop new patterns in flushing behavior.

7 October 2015 Dear Australian Competition and Consumer
7 October 2015 Dear Australian Competition and Consumer Commission Outcomes of the Shonky Awards – suggested case for investigation and enforcement On Wednesday 7 October 2015, CHOICE announced the ‘winners’ of its 10th annual Shonky awards. These ignominious awards are developed based on CHOICE members’ complaints and CHOICE staff investigations conducted throughout the year. Awards are given to businesses that have caused significant consumer detriment or outrage due to factors such as faulty products, misleading advertising or poor customer service. This year, one of our award winners appears likely to have breached provisions of the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). We encourage the ACCC to investigate Kleenex Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing Cloths for Kids. Kleenex flushable wipes Kleenex Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing Cloths For Kids are marketed as a cleaning product that can be conveniently and safely disposed of by flushing down the toilet. The product’s website states that the cleansing cloths “disintegrate like toilet paper”. CHOICE tested these products using a water agitator chamber to simulate the process of wipes travelling through household plumbing and the sewage system. We found that the Kleenex wipes are not comparable with toilet paper. The toilet paper tested broke down in the agitator entirely within three minutes. The wipes were tested for 21 hours and remained largely intact. While they broke into smaller pieces, they did not disintegrate. Waste water services across Australia are spending enormous amounts of money cleaning wipe blockages from the pipes - $15m per year and rising as wipes popularity grows. Individual consumers are relying on these claims, and flushing wipes to their own detriment.

Review of Baby Wipe Compliance with the Inda/Edana 2017 2Nd Edition Labeling Code of Practice
REVIEW OF BABY WIPE COMPLIANCE WITH THE INDA/EDANA 2017 2ND EDITION LABELING CODE OF PRACTICE Rob Villée, Barry Orr, Brooke Northey, Sara Teasdale November 2019 Review of Baby Wipe Compliance with the INDA/EDANA 2017 2nd Edition Labeling Code of Practice Rob Villée, Barry Orr, Brooke Northey, Sara Teasdale EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report is a follow-up to the research done for the 2019 Pennsylvania Water Environment Association Keystone Water Quality Manager article, “Bet You Didn’t Know Your Baby Wipes Are Plastic!” (1) and the 2019 Canadian “Defining ‘Flushability’ for Sewer Use” (8) (as known as “The Ryerson Report”). This report expands on that article and looks at the issues of Do Not Flush (DNF) labeling compliance and the Single Use Plastic (e.g. plastic/synthetic fiber) construction of baby wipes in significantly greater detail. An area of concern for both wastewater systems and the environment in general is the wipes manufacturers’ lack of transparency with the consumer. This includes the absence of clear and prominent DNF on-package labeling, as well as the totally absent information that almost all baby wipes are made of plastic or synthetic (regenerated cellulose) fibers. While other products, such as laundry detergent pods, have consistent warning labels across the brands, INDA (Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry) and its members have fought against such commonality for their baby wipes. Regarding the fiber composition, clothing labels list the fiber types so that the consumer can make an informed purchasing decision. For baby wipes, this information is not available to the consumer on the packaging ingredients label and, at best, it takes considerable effort to get that information from the brand owner.

Aim To find out whether water type, water temperature or composting influences the time taken for flushable wipes and toilet paper to biodegrade. Hypothesis I think that toilet paper will noticably biodegrade faster than all the other wipes. None of the other wipes will noticably biodegrade in any conditions What are flushable wipes, what are they doing to the environment? Flushable wipes are a growing problem not only in Australia but all over the world. Australians are flushing thousands of wipes into our water systems. Popular sanitary company's released flushable wipes onto the market in the 1990’s. Since the 2000’s their usage has increased as people are using them as an addition or alternative to toilet paper. One in four people in Sydney flush wet wipes down the sewers. Yarra Valley Water removes over 2000 kilograms of wet wipes from its network every week! People are buying these wipes because of the convincing advertising surrounding these products. People are then flushing them down the toilet .When this happens the wipes accumulate into giant masses, “fat bergs”, blocking the worlds sewers. More than 75% of all sewer blockages are because of wet wipes and the “fat bergs”. More and more people are flushing down these wipes costing Sydney Water 8 million dollars every year in repair and processing costs. The majority of flushable wipe companies convince the buyer that normal toilet paper isn’t good enough. Kleenex stated that “often, dry toilet paper alone doesn't provide a good enough clean. That’s where Kleenex flushable cleansing cloth comes in: lightly moistened toilet tissue wipes, to be used with your regular toilet paper to feel extra clean and fresh, everyday”.

Reduced Dispersibility of Flushable Wet Wipes After Wet Storage
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Reduced dispersibility of fushable wet wipes after wet storage Thomas Harter1,3, Ingo Bernt2,3, Stefanie Winkler2 & Ulrich Hirn1,3* Scientifc publications and newsfeeds recently focused on fushable wet wipes and their role in sewage system blockages. It is stated that although products are marked as fushable, they do not disintegrate after being disposed of via the toilet. In this work it is shown that wetlaid hydroentangled wet wipes lose their initially good dispersive properties during their storage in wet condition. As a consequence, we are suggesting to add tests after defned times of wet storage when assessing the fushability of wet wipes. Loss of dispersibility is found for both, wet wipes from industrial pilot production and wipes produced on laboratory pilot facilities. We found it quite surprising that the wet wipes’ dispersibility is deteriorating after storage in exactly the same liquid they are dispersed in, i.e. water. This is probably why the efect of wet storage has not been investigated earlier. It is demonstrated that the deteriorating dispersibility of these wipes is linked to the used type of short cellulosic fbres — only wipes containing unbleached softwood pulp as short fbre component were preserving good dispersibility during wet storage. Possible mechanisms that might be responsible are discussed, e.g. long term fber swelling causing a tightening of the fber network, or surface interdifusion. Wet wipes, with their broad range of applications, are part of the modern life and can be found in many house- holds. Especially the demand on personal hygiene products has increased and is forecasted to rise by 8.0% p.a.
