Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
A worldwide background concentration of titanium in surface waters was found about 489 ng/L
Executive summary:

Gaillardet et al (2003) calculate 489 ng/L as a world average element conentration.
