Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Distribution in environmental compartments has been calculated using a Fugacity model, under the emission scenario of 1000 kg/h into each of air, water and soil compartments, according to Mackay, Level III. Distribution in various environmental compartments is estimated as: Air= 4.73%; Water= 34.2%; Soil= 61% and Sediment= 0.0929%.
The soil was then found to be the major target compartment.
