   Author : Kristina Arnqvist; [2023]
   Keywords : r-PET; polyester yarn; NIAS; risk assessment;

   Abstract : Polyester is a synthetic material made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is synthesised from fossil raw materials. Many clothing manufacturers are using polyester in their clothing, which, from an environmental perspective, creates a non-sustainable cycle. READ MORE

3. 2. HAZARD ASSESSMENT OF 1 932 INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS REGISTERED WITHIN REACH

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Author : Andreas Hellohf; [2022-08-08]
   Keywords : chemical risk assessment; industrial chemicals;

   Abstract : This report was conducted to examine if industrial chemicals present a hazard to the aquatic environment in Europe. Industrial chemicals produced within or imported to the European Union are regulated according to the REACH Regulation and most of them must be registered in the ECHA database. READ MORE

4. 3. Greening peptide chemistry by using NBP as solvent for SPPS

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

   Author : Andrea Ölander; [2022]
   Keywords : SPPS; Green chemistry; Peptide Synthesis; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : The preferred method for synthesising therapeutic peptides today is by Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS). SPPS is a wasteful process, where the main component of the waste is hazardous solvents, i.e., N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or dichloromethane (DCM). READ MORE

6. 5. Comparison of two methods in deriving aquatic predicted no-effect concentration (PNEC) for α-Amylcinnamaldehyde, 1-Tridecanol and Paracetamol

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

   Author : Emma Holmén; [2019]
   Keywords : PNEC; Environmental risk assessment; ERA; α-Amylcinnamaldehyde; 1- tridecanol; paracetamol; Species Sensitivity Distributions; SSD; ECHA; Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : This study is evaluating two methods in order to calculate predicted no effect concentrations (PNECs) used in environmental risk assessment for three chemicals (α-Amylcinnamaldehyde, 1-tridecanol and paracetamol). The methods used are Species Sensitivity Distributions (SSD) and the guideline from European Chemicals Agency (ECHA): “Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment”. READ MORE
