A survey was conducted on the usage dishwashing detergents (DD) and the dishwashing procedures regarding washing items, types and concentrations of DD, washing tools and dishwashing, rinsing and drying methods at homes in Seoul Metro Area in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the procedures and the properness in use of the DD. Porcelain- and glass-made kitchenware was most frequently used at homes. Type 1 DD were more frequently used at homes, and DD was used after dilution at major households as suggested by DD manufacturers. Multiple-purpose scrubbing pads were most frequently used as dishwashing tools. Rinsing was done mostly with running water, and the disappearance of slippage was the major concern in judging of the completion of rinsing process. Drying of kitchenwares after rinsing was done mostly on drying racks. A typical dishwashing scheme was established from the findings of the survey.
