Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
85% removal in a municipal waste water treatment plant.
The substance was detected in Swiss waste water treatment plants in a study conducted in 1996. Concentrations in the influent were between <0.03 mg/l to 0.46 mg/l. The highest concentration found was associated with a significant input from the textile industry. An average of 85% removal is observed based on effluent concentrations, for this plant. For the other plants, the substance could not be detected in effluent.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
