Risk Assessment for Biocides

Discussion of the practical training/homework

Exposure estimation (calculation of Pec-values)

• Direct emissions (for example after leaching from treated surface, PT7-PT10)
• Emission via slurry/manure, for example PT3/PT18

Effect assessment and risk characterisation

• Effect assessment: Pnec derivation with Euses and equilibrium partitioning method for sediment and soil
• Environmental risk characterisation
