Titre : | Chemical risk assessment : a manual for reach | Type de document : | texte imprimé | Auteurs : | Peter Fisk Associates, Auteur | Editeur : | wiley | Année de publication : | 2014 | Importance : | 393p. | Présentation : | couv.ill. | Format : | 25*16 cm. | ISBN/ISSN/EAN : | 978-1-11-995368-5 | Langues : | Français (fre) | Résumé : | This book is an essential guide and support tounderstanding of the science and policy, procedure and practicethat underpins the REACH risk assessments required for the use andplacing on the market of chemicals in the European Union. A clearunderstanding of information provision and how this affects theassessment of chemical safety is fundamentally important to thesuccess of policy on chemicals and ultimately to the sustainabilityof the chemicals industry.
Within the book, the scientific processes that underpin thepolicy are explained in a practical way. Importantly,it includes coverage of techniques to help solve the problems ofusing potentially risky and hazardous chemicals through the use ofless hazardous alternatives and green chemistry , andalso the analysis of the risks of the use of the most hazardoussubstances against the social and economic benefits ofuse.
Chemical Risk Assessment: A Manual for REACH coversthe following main themes: i) Assessment of chemical risk; ii)Risk management; iii) Hazard reduction, substitution and greenchemistry; iv) Risk versus benefit socio–economicanalysis.
The book acts as a practical guide and overview tochemicals risk assessment and risk management (in the EU context),as well as a support text for planning for the challenges of thefuture, which will see ever–increasing pressure to withdrawhazardous substances from the EU (and global) market, balancedagainst opportunities for innovation in the development of lesshazardous chemicals. |
