Download or read book REACH Joint Registration Workflows for Chesar Users written by and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When importing or manufacturing a substance into the European Union (EU) in quantities of 1 tonne or more per year, registrants must identify and manage the risks linked to the substances they manufacture and market in the EU, as described in the REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. To comply with the regulation, they need to demonstrate how the substance can be safely used as part of the registration of their substance. When multiple registrants are manufacturing and/or importing the same substance, they have to register the substance jointly within the same joint submission, as described in REACH Article 11. They must agree on one registrant that will take the role of a lead registrant. Each of the registrants (manufacturer, importer or only representative) must submit their own registration dossier. There is a difference between the information that the lead registrant needs to submit, and the information submitted by other members of the joint submission. Every registrant must submit in their dossier the information on substance's identity and composition, analytical information of substance, information on the manufacture and uses of the substance, and information on exposure for the substance. The lead registrant must submit information on the classification and labelling of the substance, as well as scientific studies referred in Annexes VII to X to REACH, on behalf of the members of the joint submission. For all substances manufactured or imported above 10 tonnes, a chemical safety report (CSR) must be included in the registration dossier, unless exempted by REACH Article 14(2). The CSR can be submitted by the lead registrant on behalf of all registrants, or individually by each registrant, depending on the agreement within the joint submission.

Book excerpt: This document describes when to register a substance under REACH. It is part of a series of guidance documents that are aimed to help all stakeholders with their preparation for fulfilling their obligations under the REACH Regulation. These documents cover detailed guidance for a range of essential REACH processes as well as for some specific scientific and/or technical methods that industry and authorities need to make use of under REACH. The guidance documents were drafted and discussed within the REACH Implementation Projects (RIPs) led by the European Commission services, involving all stakeholders: Member States, industry and non-governmental organisations. The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) updates these guidance documents following the Consultation procedure on guidance. These guidance documents can be obtained via the ECHA website. This document relates to the REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006.
Download or read book REACH Beyond Borders written by Ondřej Filipec and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses how much other countries reflect the EU chemical regulation REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, Restriction of Chemicals), in the context of Europeanization theory. The main hypothesis verified in this book is that more trade with the EU means more Europeanization (as the non-EU companies exporting to the EU have an obligation to comply with EU rules according to the “No data, No Market” REACH provision). This book further points out that non-EU companies voluntarily adopt EU standards while this change has yet to be reflected on the policy level in non-EU countries, mainly for economic reasons.Exploring changes in national chemical regulatory policies among top chemical producers around the World brings new ideas into the process of Europeanization behind EU borders and provides useful material for academia, regulatory experts and export oriented chemical industry.
Download or read book Impacts of REACH Authorisation written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document reports on a study on the impacts of REACH Authorisation. The process of Authorisation within REACH (Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals), has aims to ensure the good functioning of the internal market while assuring that the risks from Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) are properly controlled and that these substances are progressively replaced by suitable alternative substances or technologies where these are economically and technically viable (REACH, Article 55). This present study considered a number of key elements in order to understand the specific contribution of the authorisation process to achieving this aim. It has been ten years since REACH came into force on the 1st June 2007 and it is one of the most comprehensive regulations on chemicals ever to be introduced anywhere in the world. The European Commission (EC) is required to review REACH every five years, to monitor its operation. The first REACH review was carried out in 2012 and a second review is due in 2017, into which this study feeds. Since the 2012 review, several studies examining specific aspects of REACH Authorisation have been carried out by the EC, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), Member State Competent Authorities (MSCAs), NGOs, and industry associations. The previous studies typically relied on anecdotal evidence and lacked quantified (and monetised) information on the costs and benefits of REACH Authorisation. The present study sought to build on available information as well as compare its findings with the previous studies. It is the first comprehensive study to attempt to obtain reliable quantitative evidence on the overall impacts of Authorisation, and particularly to focus on aspects for which there has been limited information to date. This includes the role of Authorisation in influencing the decisions to substitute away from SVHCs. The study involved a review of the existing literature; surveys with industry, NGOs, the EC, ECHA and MSCAs; in-depth follow-up interviews with industry (see Table ES. 1); and both in-depth (Tier 1) and shorter (Tier 2) case studies on specific chemicals or issues. Some of the key findings from the study are consistent with previous studies, which adds credibility to both this study and existing literature it contributes to. Members of the project team presented at various REACH-related events, spoke to industry sector groups and NGOs (in person or over the phone) to raise awareness of the project and encourage stakeholders to take part in the survey. This was supported by efforts made by ECHA and the EC. Rather than contacting as many stakeholders as possible, consultation was targeted at stakeholders who may have been impacted by REACH Authorisation and who might be able to provide the required data. In particular, any companies that had substituted from an SVHC (or were in the process of doing so) were prioritised as this was a particular data gap needed to be addressed in this study. Therefore, the sampling strategy was intentionally unrepresentative of industry as a whole, and this should be borne in mind when interpreting the results.

Download or read book Practical Guide 4 written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (hereafter, REACH) requires registrants to generate and provide information on the intrinsic properties of a substance. Details on the standard information requirements are listed in Annexes VI-X of the REACH legislation. In certain cases, the legislation foresees that generating such information may not be necessary or possible, and in such cases, the registrant is allowed to adapt or waive the standard information requirements. This practical guide provides a brief introduction to fulfilling the standard information requirements, focusing on some of the possible options for adapting or waiving these requirements available in the Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (REACH Regulation). The user may find more detailed information on the individual options for waiving in the practical guides on read across and chemical categories, (Q)SAR, weight of evidence, the use of in vitro methods, and in The guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment.

This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 1671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides an exhaustive description of polyethylene. The 50+ chapters are written by some of the most experienced and prominent authors in the field, providing a truly unique view of polyethylene. The book starts with a historical discussion on how low density polyethylene was discovered and how it provided unique opportunities in the early days. New catalysts are presented and show how they created an expansion in available products including linear low density polyethylene, high density polyethylene, copolymers, and polyethylene produced from metallocene catalysts. With these different catalysts systems a wide range of structures are possible with an equally wide range of physical properties. Numerous types of additives are presented that include additives for the protection of the resin from the environment and processing, fillers, processing aids, anti-fogging agents, pigments, and flame retardants. Common processing methods including extrusion, blown film, cast film, injection molding, and thermoforming are presented along with some of the more specialized processing techniques such as rotational molding, fiber processing, pipe extrusion, reactive extrusion, wire and cable, and foaming processes. The business of polyethylene including markets, world capacity, and future prospects are detailed. This handbook provides the most current and complete technology assessments and business practices for polyethylene resins.
Download or read book Regulatory Toxicology written by Franz-Xaver Reichl and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will be written by experts for professionals, scientists and all those involved in toxicological data generation and decision-making. It is the updated and expanded version of a monograph published in German in 2004. Chemical safety is regulated on various levels including production, storage, transport, handling, disposal or labelling. This book deals comprehensively with the safety-ensuring methods and concepts employed by regulatory agencies, industry and academics. Toxicologists use experimental and scientific approaches for data collection, e.g. about chemical hazards, physicochemical features or toxicokinetics. The respective experimental methods are described in the book. Toxicologists also deal with much insecurity in the exposure and effect scenarios during risk assessment. To overcome these, they have different extrapolation methods and estimation procedures at their disposal. The book describes these methods in an accessible manner. Differing concepts from one regulation area to another are also covered. Reasons and consequences become evident when reading the book. Altogether, the book Regulatory Toxicology will serve as an excellent reference.
Download or read book Autonomous Nature written by Carolyn Merchant and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autonomous Nature investigates the history of nature as an active, often unruly force in tension with nature as a rational, logical order from ancient times to the Scientific Revolution of the seventeenth century. Along with subsequent advances in mechanics, hydrodynamics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism, nature came to be perceived as an orderly, rational, physical world that could be engineered, controlled, and managed. Autonomous Nature focuses on the history of unpredictability, why it was a problem for the ancient world through the Scientific Revolution, and why it is a problem for today. The work is set in the context of vignettes about unpredictable events such as the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, the Bubonic Plague, the Lisbon Earthquake, and efforts to understand and predict the weather and natural disasters. This book is an ideal text for courses on the environment, environmental history, history of science, or the philosophy of science.

Download or read book The cost of inaction written by Gretta Goldenman and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2019-03-17 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PFAS (per and polyfluoroalkylsubstances) are known to be extremely difficult to degrade in the environment and to be bioaccumulative and toxic. Exposure to PFAS is suspected to increase the risk of adverse health effects, such as impacts on the thyroid gland, the liver, fat metabolism and the immune system. This study estimates the socioeconomic costs that may result from impacts on human health and the environment from the use of PFAS. Better awareness of the costs and problems associated with PFAS exposure will assist decision-makers and the general public to make more efficient and timely risk management decisions. Findings indicate that the costs are substantial, with annual health-related costs estimated to 2.8 – 4.6 billion EUR for the Nordic countries and 52 – 84 billion EUR for all EEA countries. Overall non-health costs are estimated at 46 million – 11 billion EUR for the Nordic countries.Upon request the excel spreadsheets used for the monetarisation and valuation in this report can also be provided along with a guidance on how to use the estimation of costs for value transfer. Please contact any of the consultants or members of the steering group from the Swedish Chemicals Agency or the Danish Environmental Protection Agency if you are interested in receiving these excel spreadsheets.

Download or read book Pesticide Policy and Politics in the European Union written by Emanuela Bozzini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-23 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the regulation of pesticides in the European Union in order to reveal the complex, controversial, and contested nature of an assessment system proudly declared by the EU to be ‘the strictest in the world’. The current regulatory framework is based on Regulation 1107/2009, which substantially reformed the previous system. The analysis describes the new criteria and procedures for the authorization of active substances to be used in the production of pesticides, traces the lengthy policy formulation process, and identifies factors that made policy change possible. Further, the book illustrates the current controversies that characterise the implementation of Regulation 1107/2009: the ban of pesticides harmful to pollinators, the renewal of the authorization of glyphosate, and the definition of criteria for the assessment of endocrine disruption. The author provides information on policy outcomes and highlights persisting shortcomings in the enforcement of EU regulation. This book will appeal to students and scholars from a variety of disciplines, including political science, political sociology, and public policy.
