Details on matrix:
The activated sludge was taken from the activation basin of the sewage treatment plant of Stadtentsorgung Neustadt in D-67435 Lachen-Speyerdorf. The plant is treating mostly household sewage. Date of taking: 11. Dec. 2006.

The sludge was centrifuged, washed with tap water and then freeze-dried. The residue was pressed through a sieve and then dried at 105° C for three hours. The organic matterwas determined as 33%.
Details on test conditions:
Aqueous samples were centrifugated before analysis at 4000 rpm for 15 minutes at 20 °C. The SPE C8 tubes were pre-conditioned with 2 mL methanole and 1 mL citric buffer. A mixture of 1 mL citric buffer and 2 mL centrifugated sample was sucked slowly through a SPE-tube, the tube was rinsed with 1 mL washing solution. After drying for 20 min in full vacuum, elution was performed using 0.7 mL methanole. After addition of 0.3 mL phosphate buffer pH 3, the samples were measured using HPLC.

The test was performed at a temperature of 20 ± 1°C. All vessels were sterilised before use. For equilibration, the sludge samples were shaken
for 30 minutes with the appropriate volume of buffer-solution pH 7 to reach a total volume of 50 mL before addition of the test item. After equilibration and measurement of pH, the appropriate volume of Telmisartan stock solution to result in the concentrations to be tested was added. The mixtures were shaken on an orbital shaker until sampling after 24h. The time of reaching the equilibration (24h) was determined in a pre-test. Before sampling at equilibrium, the mixtures were centrifugated. The aqueous phases were prepared as described (see above) and measured using HPLC.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The adsorption study at one concentration of the test item (25 pg/L) was performed using eight different sludge-solution-ratios. No relevant adsorption on the surface of the test vessels and no signs of instability were observed. The adsorption isotherm function of Telmisartan showed a good linear correlation with a regression factor r of 0.9977. The sorption constants at 20 °C and pH = 7.01 ± 0.01 were determined as:
log KF = 7.6363 and 1/n = 2.6322
