Information Requirements under the Essential-Use Concept: PFA Case Studies

Juliane Gluge et al.

Summary: The study reveals that there are diverse uses of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), with limited information on alternatives. PFAS in consumer products can be easily replaced, while their uses in industrial processes require thorough evaluation. It is necessary to enhance coordination among stakeholders to ensure a transparent and coordinated phase-out of PFAS.

Outside the Safe Operating Space of the Planetary Boundary for Novel Entities

Linn Persson et al.

Summary: This article suggests that the safe operating space of the planetary boundary for novel entities is exceeded due to the increasing production and releases exceeding the global capacity for assessment and monitoring. Plastic pollution is highlighted as a major concern. The article presents an impact pathway from the production of novel entities to their impacts on Earth system processes and proposes several criteria for control variables. Urgent action is recommended to reduce the harm associated with exceeding the boundary by reducing the production and releases of novel entities.

UV Filters: Challenges and Prospects

Ana Jesus et al.

Summary: The use of sunscreens is a recommended practice to protect the skin from solar-induced damage. However, some UV filters have been found to have low photostability and potential toxicity. Therefore, it is important to develop new UV filters with improved safety and stability.

Economic interests cloud hazard reductions in the European regulation of substances of very high concern

Jessica Coria et al.

Summary: The most important factor in the regulation of chemical substances of very high concern in the European REACH regulation is whether or not they are produced or imported into the European Economic Area. Regulators are less likely to list substances that are currently being produced or imported, leading to lower hazard reductions than anticipated.

Retrieval, Selection, and Evaluation of Chemical Property Data for Assessments of Chemical Emissions, Fate, Hazard, Exposure, and Risks

Li Li et al.

Summary: This comprehensive review offers practical guidance for using chemical property data in chemical assessments, including obtaining experimentally derived and in silico predicted property data sources, as well as strategies for evaluating and curating the data. It emphasizes the uncertainty and variability present in both experimentally derived and in silico predicted property data, advocating for the harmonization of multiple experimental data or consolidating predictions from multiple in silico tools.

Evaluating the Application of Decision Analysis Methods in Simulated Alternatives Assessment Case Studies: Potential Benefits and Challenges of Using MCDA

Christian Beaudrie et al.

Summary: The study compared various forms of multicriteria decision analysis in enhancing alternatives assessment practice. Although these techniques were found to improve transparency and communication, they did not consistently lead to higher decision satisfaction and were not more likely to be adopted within organizations compared to unaided approaches.

High Throughput Risk and Impact Screening of Chemicals in Consumer Products

Olivier Jolliet et al.

Summary: The study highlights the potential risks associated with household products in daily life and emphasizes the importance of assessing exposure and toxicity data comprehensively. Significant variability exists in the risks among chemical-product combinations, and prioritization based solely on hazard is insufficient for evaluating actual risk levels.

Chemical pollution: A growing peril and potential catastrophic risk to humanity

Ravi Naidu et al.

Summary: Anthropogenic chemical pollution has the potential to threaten humanity's environmental health significantly; however, global understanding of this issue remains fragmented. There are serious gaps in our understanding of the scale of the threat and the risks posed by the dispersal, mixture, and recombination of chemicals in the wider environment. Despite the existence of pollution control measures, they are often not being implemented at the necessary rate to prevent chronic and acute effects on human health.

Does the scientific knowledge reflect the chemical diversity of environmental pollution?-A twenty-year perspective

Erik Kristiansson et al.

Summary: Environmental policymaking heavily relies on toxicological properties of chemical pollutants, with ecotoxicological research contributing significantly to this knowledge. The research community faces challenges in covering the vast diversity of chemicals in the environment. Recent trends show a focus on specific chemicals, with changes in research direction and a growing interest in pharmaceuticals over biocides.University and corporate-based research exhibit distinct patterns, and there's a need for continued expansion in ecotoxicology to keep up with the increasing diversity of chemicals used in society.

Summary: This study provides a comprehensive assessment of the potential environmental consequences of phasing out PFASs in DWRs, demonstrating that jackets without PFASs are environmentally preferable. However, potential problem shifting due to increased washing and reimpregnation of the jackets is also highlighted. Specific preferences among non-fluorinated DWRs could not be identified.
