Appendix 1 Spreadsheet for computation of minimum volumes of water required for detection of test substances of different log POW values in aqueous phase

Assumptions:

  • Maximum volume of individual aliquots = 10 % of total volume; 5 aliquots = 50 % of total volume.

  • . In case of lower concentrations, larger volumes would be required.

  • Volume used for LOD determination = 100 ml.

  • log Pow vs. log Sw and log Pow vs. SR (Soct/Sw) are reasonable representations of relationships for test substances.

Key to Computations U.K.

Represents < 10 % of total volume of aqueous phase, 1 litre equilibration vessel.

Represents < 10 % of total volume of aqueous phase, 2 litre equilibration vessel.

Represents < 10 % of total volume of aqueous phase, 5 litre equilibration vessel.

Represents < 10 % of total volume of aqueous phase, 10 litre equilibration vessel.

Exceeds 10 % of even the 10 liter equilibration vessel.
