E: Run SimpleTreat 4.0, use substance properties compiled in your chemicals inventory. In addition expert judgement is necessary to consider process-integrated risk management measures. With SimpleTreat 4.0 the generic distribution of the substance to the compartments water, soil / sewage sludge and air is determined after the substance has been emitted from the industrial process. It is not about the numerical results, but about determining whether the substance can be released from the sewage treatment plant.
Alternative: worst case assume that substance enters WWTP.
