EPI Suite (TM): Individual estimation programs and/or their underlying predictive methods and equations have been described in numerous journal articles in peer-reviewed technical journals. In addition, EPI Suite™ has undergone detailed review by a panel of EPA’s independent Science Advisory Board.
KOWWIN – which is part of EPI Suite – is one of the most commonly used programs. KOWWIN uses a "fragment constant" method to predict Kow. Fragment constant methods divide the chemical structure into smaller structural fragments (atoms or larger functional groups). Each fragment is associated with a preassigned coefficient value called fragment constants. The predicted log Kow value is obtained by summing all the fragment constants appearing in the chemical structure. (Ref. ECHA, Practical Guide - How to use and report (Q)SARs, v. 3.1, 2016 and ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, chapter R.6, 2008).
- Defined endpoint: partition coefficient
- Unambiguous algorithm: KOWWIN uses a "fragment constant" methodology to predict log P. In a "fragment constant" method, a structure is divided into fragments (atom or larger functional groups) and coefficient values of each fragment or group are summed together to yield the log P estimate. KOWWIN’s methodology is known as an Atom/Fragment Contribution (AFC) method. Coefficients for individual fragments and groups were derived by multiple regression of 2447 reliably measured log P values (Meylan and Howard (1995)). The method uses correction factors as described in Attachment KOWWIN methodology. Also regression results are presented in the Attachment.
5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
The modelled representative compounds are non-ionic organic substances covered by the applicability domain of KOWWIN.
Molecular weights of the representative components (test material) are within the Molecular Weight minimum and maximum values for Training Set (18.02 – 719.92) and Validation range (27.03 – 991.15).
KOWWIN has been tested on an external validation dataset of 10,946 compounds. Correlation is presented in the Attachment KOWWIN Accuracy and Domain.
Number of fragments is within the number maximum fragments in KOWWIN.
6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
Accuracy of the calculated parameters versus experimental results of the representative compounds are as follows, respectively:
Acetaldehyde: -0.17; -0.34,
Acetic acid: 0.09; -0.17,
b-Sitosterol: 9.65; -,
Furfural: 0.41; 0.83,
Glucose; -2.98; -3.24,
Methanol; -0.77; -0.63,
Naphthalene; 3.17; 3.30,
Phenol; 1.51; 1.46
(Attachment: KOWWIN Results).
Due to the nature of bio-oils, which as UVCB substance consists of more than 500 different compounds, it is technically irrelevant to test partition coefficient for the substance. Therefore, the computational method gives a reasonably reliable estimate on the weighted average of the parameter. - Guideline:

Description of key information
Partition between octanol and water of FPBO has not been tested due to UVCB nature of the substance. Octanol-water coefficients (Log Kow) of the main components (contributing 5 % of the total wet weight) were determined using KOWWIN program developed by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. LogKow values of the individual components range from -2.89 to 9.65 with the weighted average being -0.30.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Log Kow (Log Pow):
- -0.3
Additional information
Pyrolysis liquids can be considered as solutions of water and water-soluble organic compounds with water insoluble, mostly oligomeric, material. The ratio of these fractions depends on the feedstock, the pyrolysis process, production and storage conditions. The water insoluble fraction, mainly lignin-derived oligomers, usually accounts for about 20-25 wt% of the liquid (wet basis), while the water concentration typically ranges from 20 to 30 wt%. The water-soluble fraction consists mainly of water, "sugars" (sugartype compounds, ether-insolubles), acids, aldehydes, ketones, pyrans and furans (Oasmaa & Peacocke 2010). Consequently, the analysis of partition co-efficient for fast pyrolysis bio-oil was considered technically not feasible. Due to the nature of bio-oils, which consists of more than 500 different compounds, it is not possible to test partition coefficient for the substance.
Based on research of VTT Finland on bio-oils, general aspects are known concerning solubility of fast pyrolysis bio-oils. The solubility of pyrolysis liquids in organic solvents is affected by the degree of polarity. Good solvents for highly polar biomass pyrolysis liquids are low molecular weight alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol and iso-propanol. Polar biomass pyrolysis liquids do not dissolve in hydrocarbons such as hexane, diesel fuels or polyolefins. Neutral, mainly aliphatic, substances in forest residue and bark liquids (< 10 wt %) are soluble in n-hexane however. To dissolve forest residue liquids, a mixture of a polar (e.g., alcohol) and a neutral (e.g., dichloromethane) solvent is needed (Oasmaa & Peacocke 2010).
A lot of research concerning bio oils has been done under IEA Bioenergy Task 34 Pyrolysis and under BIOTOX project funded by European Union. The project produced a final technical report called “An assessment of bio-oil toxicity for safe handling and transportation”. According to the report,testing of partition coefficient n-octanol/water require further chemical analysis to estimate the evolution of the test item concentrations in solution during the test. But due to the nature of bio-oils, which consist of more than 500 different compounds, it is not possible to assess the evolution of its concentration in solution and thus tests without chemical analyses to follow the evolution of tested substances were regarded as senseless (BIOTOX 2005).
