Description of key information

Additional information

The distribution in a sewage treatment plant (STP) has been estimated using the SimpleTreat model (implemented in EUSES 2.1.2), see table below.

Table: Distribution modelling for STP

Fraction of emission directed to air by STP

64.8

[%]

Fraction of emission directed to water by STP

3.9

[%]

Fraction of emission directed to sludge by STP

31.3

[%]

Fraction of the emission degraded in STP

0

[%]

H-L3 is not expected to undergo any significant biodegradation and is predicted to have very high Henry’s Law constant and high log Kow/log Koc. Therefore, air and sludge are the main compartments to which it is expected to partition in a sewage treatment plant, with partition to water also being significant.
