The prevalence of each type of facility was assessed in a survey of WWT technologies at 81 European chemical facilities that included both large integrated facilities and smaller dedicated stand-alone sites (EC, 2016). The operations at these facilities included the production and formulation of a wide range of chemicals and solvents for use in a wide range of downstream applications. The survey results indicated that a majority (i.e. 89%) of the chemical facilities used a dedicated industrial wastewater treatment facility; a much smaller percentage utilized a municipal treatment plant capable of handling both industrial and domestic wastewater. Despite the limited reliance on municipal treatment facilities, their usage is conservatively assumed to exist as a normal operating condition during the production, formulation, and downstream use of solvents.falseESCom-9267234041trueEUSES_BIOLOGICAL_STP-SITE-SPECIFICWATERRELEASE_MODULE_DAILY_USE_AT_SITEAmount of susbtance use per day 50,000 kg/day

The prevalence of each type of facility was assessed in a survey of WWT technologies at 81 European chemical facilities that included both large integrated facilities and smaller dedicated stand-alone sites (EC, 2016). The operations at these facilities included the production and formulation of a wide range of chemicals and solvents for use in a wide range of downstream applications. The survey results indicated that a majority (i.e. 89%) of the chemical facilities used a dedicated industrial wastewater treatment facility; a much smaller percentage utilized a municipal treatment plant capable of handling both industrial and domestic wastewater. Despite the limited reliance on municipal treatment facilities, their usage is conservatively assumed to exist as a normal operating condition during the production, formulation, and downstream use of solvents.falseESCom-9267234041trueEUSES_BIOLOGICAL_STP-SITE-SPECIFICWATEREUSES_DISCHARGE_RATE_OF_STPAssumed domestic sewage treatment plant flowfalsetrue2000.0RELEASE_MODULE_DAILY_USE_AT_SITEAmount of substance use per day: 50,000 kg/day (NB value modified)

The effluent discharge rate is applicable to a group of 10,000 inhabitants who generate 200 L of wastewater per person.
The removal efficiency is provided by the SimpleTreat model, which takes into consideration the biodegradability, partitioning behaviour, and volatility of an organic substance. Degradation assumes the operation of an aerobic activated-sludge reactor under steady-state conditions.
