Description: The aim of this project is to develop an integrative mass flow model which will allow environmental concentrations of the endocrine disruptor nonylphenol and its ethoxylates in Switzerland to be predicted. Initially, the model will be developed on the basis of available information regarding production, consumption/application, wastewater treatment and environmental behaviour. Using the model for specific scenarios, environmental concentrations will be predicted for different environmental compartments. Next, the predictions will be compared to available environmental data for the chemicals being studied. This comparison of predicted and measured data will allow the model to be verified, and it will subsequently be modified if necessary.
