Book Description
CEPA requires the ministers of the Environment and of National Health and Welfare to prepare and publish a Priority Substances List that identifies substances, including chemicals, groups of chemicals, effluents and wastes that may be harmful to the environment or constitute a danger to human health. The assessment of whether hexachlorobenzene is toxic, as interpreted in CEPA, was based on the determination of whether it enters or likely enters the Canadian environment in a concentration or quantities or under conditions that could lead to exposure of humans or other biota at levels that could cause adverse effects. In this report, an overview of the findings is presented. An extended summary of technical information critical to the assessment is presented in Section 2. The assessment of whether HCB is toxic under CEPA is presented in Section 3.
Chlorobenzenes Other Than Hexachlorobenzene
Author: Heath MalcolmPublisher: World Health Organization
ISBN: 924153060X
Category : Chlorobenzene
Languages : en
Pages : 62
Book Description
This concise international chemical assessment document (CICAD) on chlorobenzenes other than hexachlorobenzene (environmental aspects) is an update of Environmental Health Criteria (EHC) 128. Information on the fate and levels of chlorobenzenes was also obtained from the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry reports on chlorobenzene and 1,4-dichlorobenzene. This CICAD concentrates on environmental aspects because there have been no significant changes to the human health assessment since publication of the EHC.--Publisher's description.
Hexachlorobenzene

Category : Chlorobenzene
Languages : en
Pages : 744
Book Description
This publication represents the proceedings of an international symposium on hexachlorobenzene (HCB) held in 1985. It reports data on the impact of HCB on human health and the environment, citing sources, distribution, expenses and effects. It also gives the data needed to compare the toxicity of HCB with other environmental chemicals of a similar structure and level of toxicity, and recommends directions and options for future research and risk management.
Determination of Toxic Organic Chemicals In Natural Waters, Sediments and Soils
Author: T. R. CromptonPublisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128165308
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
Determination of Toxic Organic Chemicals in Natural Waters, Sediments and Soils: Determination and Analysis reviews the latest techniques for the determination and assessment of both current and emerging organic compounds in a range of important environmental contexts. A wide range of organic compounds in non-saline waters are discussed in the opening chapters, including hydrocarbons, surface active agents and volatile organic compounds. This is followed by multiorganics, pesticides and organometallic compounds in non-saline waters. Organic compounds in aqueous precipitation are then explored before the book goes on to discuss compounds in soils, including extraction techniques, insecticides, herbicides and fungicides, and organometallic compounds. Finally, the concluding chapters focus on compounds in sediments, providing readers with the latest information in the field and supporting them as they address the important issue surrounding organic material throughout ecosystems. Highlights the latest methods for analyzing a wide range of organic compounds Supports researchers by providing detailed information across a range of ecosystems Includes detailed guidance for assessing complex mixtures of organic compounds in the environment
