Williams, Richard; Zhang, Zhong; Price, Oliver. 2009 Catchment Modelling using LF2000-WQX: Model validation and National Assessment of Concentrations for LAS, triclosan and methyltriclosan. NERC/Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, 63pp.
Abstract
The eco-toxicological effects of organic micro-contaminants released into water via WwTPs
through the everyday use of common commercial products are of concern to regulators. This
study was designed to predict concentrations of two such compounds – triclosan and linear
alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) and methyl-triclosan a metabolite of triclosan in river reaches
in England and Wales downstream of significant WwTP discharges. The predicted
concentrations are to be used in a risk assessment by Unilever PLC as part of its
environmental research programme.
