Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Nonylphenol is an organic compound of the wider family of alkylphenols. It is a product of industrial synthesis formed during the alkylation process of phenols, particularly in the synthesis of polyethoxylate detergents. Because of their man-made origins, nonylphenols are classified as xenobiotics. Due to its high production and dispersive use patterns, nonylphenol is found in many of the worlds bodies of waters.

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Nonylphenol is an organic compound of the wider family of alkylphenols. It is a product of industrial synthesis formed during the alkylation process of phenols, particularly in the synthesis of polyethoxylate detergents. Because of their man-made origins, nonylphenols are classified as xenobiotics. Due to its high production and dispersive use patterns, nonylphenol is found in many of the worlds bodies of waters. The Great Lakes have had some of the highest levels reported, though the levels remain well below acute toxicity thresholds. Nonylphenol, and a related compound tert-octylphenol, were first detected as an air pollutant in New York City and New Jersey, probably due to its evaporation from the Hudson river and other smaller rivers in the region that routinely receive municipal wastewaters. It is possible that the atmosphere is a destructive sink for nonylphenol as it is probably reactive with atmospheric radicals and/or is photoactive. Nonylphenol is found all around the world, and is of high concern due to its hazardous effects that have been found in many aquatic organisms.
