Namkung and Rittman presented a timely paper on an issue of increasing concern to individuals in both the water and air quality communities. The significance of volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions from publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) was addressed in several recent studies, many of which lead to conflicting conclusions.14 A new era of air pollution control regulations based on risk analysis for exposure to airborne carcinogens may draw additional attention to POTWs in the near

DISCLAIMER The use of company or product name(s) is for identification only and does not imply endorsement by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. A Toxicological Profile for Ethylbenzene, Draft for Public Comment was released in October 2007. This edition supersedes any previously released draft or final profile. Toxicological profiles are revised and republished as necessary. For information regarding the update status of previously released profiles, contact ATSDR at: FOREWORD This toxicological profile is prepared in accordance with guidelines* developed by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The original guidelines were published in the Federal Register on April 17, 1987. Each profile will be revised and republished as necessary. The ATSDR toxicological profile succinctly characterizes the toxicologic and adverse health effects infonnation for these toxic substances described therein. Each peer-reviewed profile identifies and reviews the key literature that describes a substance's toxicologic properties. Other pertinent literature is also presented, but is described in less detail than the key studies. The profile is not intended to be an exhaustive document; however, more comprehensive sources of specialty information are referenced. The focus of the profiles is on health and toxicologic infonnation; therefore, each toxicological profile begins with a public health statement that describes, in nontechnical language, a substance's relevant toxicological properties. Following the public health statement is infonnation concerning levels of significant human exposure and, where known, significant health effects. The adequacy of infonnation to detennine a substance's health effects is described in a health effects summary. Data needs that are of significance to protection of public health are identified by ATSDR. Each profile includes the following: (A) The examination, summary, and interpretation of available toxicologic infonnation and epidemiologic evaluations on a toxic substance to ascertain the levels of significant human exposure for the substance and the associated acute, subacute, and chronic health effects; (B) A determination of whether adequate infonnation on the health effects of each substance is available or in the process of development to detennine levels of exposure that present a significant risk to human health of acute, subacute, and chronic health effects; and (C) Where appropriate, identification of toxicologic testing needed to identifY the types or levels of exposure that may present significant risk of adverse health effects in humans. The principal audiences for the toxicological profiles are health professionals at the Federal, State, and local levels; …

Modeling the fate of volatile organic compounds in wastewater treatment facilities; implementation of volatilization models in envirocad

The purpose of the study was to develop and utilize sampling, analytical, and predictive methods to assess the fate of selected chemicals in a full-scale wastewater treatment facility by monitoring a wastewater treatment facility which received wastewater from a large petrochemical plant The treatment facility consisted of (1) neutralization, (2) equalization, (3) aerated stabilization and (4) UNOX treatment Eight chemicals were monitored These included four volatile chemicals (benzene, toluene, 1,2 dichloroethane, and ethyl benzene) and four semi-volatile chemicals (tetralin, 2-ethyl hexanol, 2-ethyhexylacrylate, and naphthalene) Extensive sampling of the air, water and sludge streams around each of the wastewater treatment unit operations was conducted for a three-week period during August 1983
