Abstract |
The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires each person who intends to manufacture a new chemical to submit a Premanufacturing Notice to the EPA at least 90 days before manufacture commences. The work reported was directed toward the development of a procedure for the orderly and rapid prediction of direct human exposure which might result from such manufacture. The procedure developed involves the following steps: (1) prediction of unavailable physical and chemical properties from analogs and general chemical knowledge, (2) prediction of production volume based upon company size, current markets and total market volume, (3) prediction of chemical operator exposure and exposures in the vicinity of the plant based upon fugitive emissions and (4) prediction of consumer exposure based upon active use and passive use of the chemical. The procedure will permit rapid screening however further refinements will enhance the usefulness. |
