Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- According the the simulation the hydrosphere is the target compartment for phenol in the environment (98.8%).
- Executive summary:
The theoretical distribution of phenol in the environment was calculated using the Mackay Level I. According the simulation the hydrosphere is the main target compartment for phenol in the environment (98.8 % in water) and only a very minor amount is distributed into the air (0.8 %).
