This Emission Scenario Document (ESD) presents an approach to estimate the emissions of wood preservatives from two stages of their life cycle: 1) application and storage of treated wood prior to shipment, and 2) treated wood-in service. This ESD can be used in the estimation of concentrations in the environment of specific active substances used in wood preservatives.

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 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 Guidance Document is addressed to those who are involved in risk assessment and management of chemicals called POPs (persistent organic pollutants) or PBTs (persistent and bio-accumulating toxics).It is about using multimedia models, i.e. generic evaluative models that can calculate overall environmental persistence (Pov) and potential for long-range transport (LTRP) covering multiple compartments such as air, water, sediment and

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
