Reliable delineation of aquatic toxicity cut-offs for poorly soluble hydrocarbons is lacking. In this study, vapor and passive dosing methods were applied in limit tests with algae and daphnids to evaluate the presence or absence of chronic effects at exposures...
Under the European REACH regulation, chemicals are assessed for persistence as part of weight-of-evidence determinations of persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity (PBT), as required under Annex XIII and supported by an Integrated Assessment and Testing Strategy...
Report no. 19/20: This report describes research carried out to determine: a) the environmental conditions which may support Ethyl tert butyl ether (ETBE) biodegradation in groundwater, b) the prevalence of ETBE biodegradation potential at ETBE-release sites (mainly)...
Distribution and elimination of petroleum products can be predicted in aerobic wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) using models such as multimedia fate model SimpleTreat. An advantage of the SimpleTreat model is that it only requires a few basic properties of a...
Report no. 13/20: This report presents the results of an investigation that was carried out to demonstrate Natural Source Zone Depletion (NSZD) occurred under a paved site and compare various monitoring measurement methods in that context. The site is considered...
