Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
The dilution factors for the effluents of the Currenta sewage treatment plants by the river Rhine are:
D 41539 Dormagen: 1.484
D 51368 Leverkusen: 807
D 47829 Uerdingen: 4.447
Executive summary:

Effluent volumes of three Sewage Treatment Plants, which flow into the River Rhine, were estimated by daily measurements in 2007. The 10-percentile of the water volumes of the Rhine monitored daily from 1998 - 2007 was taken for the calculation of dilution factors.

 

The dilution factors for the effluents of the Currenta sewage treatment plants by the river are:

D 41539 Dormagen: 1.484

D 51368 Leverkusen: 807

D 47829 Uerdingen: 4.447

Due to few and inadequate data, reliability may not be assessed.
