This OECD Emission Scenario Document (ESD) is intended to provide information on the sources, use patterns and release pathways of chemicals used in the pulp, paper and board industry, in order to help estimate releases of chemicals into the environment. This ESD covers the use of chemicals in the making of paper and board and the recycling of paper and board. The main processes considered are paper-making and paper recycling.
This document is a complement to the Guidance Document on Emission Scenario Documents (OECD Series of Emission Scenario Documents No 1) by focusing emission during service-life of articles. This document was developed by Sweden and reviewed by the OECD Task Force on Environmental Exposure Assessment.
This Chapter proposes an approach to estimate environmental emissions from treated wood in service. Based on the discussions during the Belgirate Workshop [OECD 2000c], the Expert Group agreed on the methods to be used to:1. estimate the emissions during the service life of treated wood2. calculate an initial concentration of an active ingredient(s) or any substance of concern in a wood preservative formulation in the primary
This OECD Emission Scenario Document (ESD) is intended to provide information on the sources, use patterns and release pathways of chemicals used at recovered paper mills, to assist in the estimation of releases of chemicals into the environment.
This OECD Emission Scenario Document (ESD) is intended to provide information on the sources, use patterns and release pathways of chemicals used as additives in plastics to assist in the estimation of releases of chemicals to the environment.
This OECD Emission Scenario Document (ESD) is intended to provide information on the sources, use patterns and release pathways of chemicals used as additives in rubber industry to assist in the estimation of releases of chemicals to the environment.
This document includes a draft emission scenario document (ESD) on textilemanufacturing wool mills, submitted by Canada. This document is intended to provide additional information about the published ESD on Textile Finishing Industry [ENV/JM/MONO(2004)12].

Emission estimation plays a key role in the risk assessments of chemical pollutants. Emission estimation methods are used to calculate emissions by both regulatory agencies and emitting facilities in OECD member countries. The purpose of regulatory agencies is to evaluate the risk of chemical pollutants to human health and the environment based on emission estimates: the evaluation is commonly facilitated with the use of Emission
This document contains the report of the OECD Workshop on Improving the Use of Monitoring Data in the Exposure Assessment of Industrial Chemicals, which took place in Berlin, Germany on 13th-15th May 1998. The Workshop was co-sponsored by the Federal Environment Ministry and Unweltbundesamt. Included in this report are the Workshop’s conclusions and recommendations, as well as texts from speakers at the opening plenary session and
