Exposure route Exposure pattern DNEL (workers)
Inhalation Acute systemic effects As no acute toxicity hazard has identified, there is no requirement to derive acute DNELs. Therefore only long term DNELs have been derived.

Long term systemic 44.08 mg/m³
Dermal Acute systemic effects As no acute toxicity hazard has identified, there is no requirement to derive acute DNELs. Therefore only long term DNELs have been derived.
Long term systemic As the substance to be registered is an inorganic solid, absorption through the skin is not an appropriate route of exposure. Dermal exposure will not result in systemic toxicity and therefore it is not considered to be appropriate to calculate a dermal DNEL.
No DNELs can be derived for local effects as no dose-response relationship can be identified in any of the studies available.
DNELs (general population):
Exposure route Exposure pattern DNEL (general population)
Inhalation Acute systemic effects As no acute toxicity hazard has identified, there is no requirement to derive acute DNELs. Therefore only long term DNELs have been derived.
Long term systemic 10.87 mg/m³
Oral Acute systemic effects As no acute toxicity hazard has identified, there is no requirement to derive acute DNELs. Therefore only long term DNELs have been derived.
Long term systemic Consumer uses of inorganic phosphates (with Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and Al3+ cations), besides food and water, do not contribute noticeably to the oral intake of phosphates. Oral intake is predominately via food and water in the form of food additives or similar or from natural sources. It is therefore considered appropriate to use the Maximum tolerable daily intake (MTDI) value of 70 mg/kg bw /day of phosphorus as calculated by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JEFCA) as any toxicity effects noted via the oral route are not attributable to the cation but are as a result of high doses of phosphates
Dermal Acute systemic effects As no acute toxicity hazard has identified, there is no requirement to derive acute DNELs. Therefore only long term DNELs have been derived.
Long term systemic As the substance to be registered is an inorganic solid, absorption through the skin is not an appropriate route of exposure. Dermal exposure will not result in systemic toxicity and therefore it is not considered to be appropriate to calculate a dermal DNEL.
No DNEL can be derived for local effects as no dose-response relationship can be identified in any of the studies available. PNECs:

of short-term data and read-across data into account. (AF = 2000)
PNEC aqua (marine water)
0.005 mg/L
No reliable studies are available on marine species. The PNEC is therefore based on the short-term studies conducted on freshwater species. The assessment factor used takes the use of short-term data in freshwater species and read-across data into account. (AF = 20000)
PNEC aqua (intermittent releases)
0.5 mg/L The PNEC is based on the lowest value from the short-term studies (100 mg/L), the assessment factor used takes the use of read-across data into account. (AF = 200)
PNEC STP 50 mg/L
The PNEC is based on the NOEC from the ASRI study. The assessment factor used takes the use of read-across data into account and uses the assessment factor appropriate for use of a NOEC value. (AF = 20)
PNEC sediment (freshwater)
No data is available for freshwater sediments. Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+ and PO43- ions are ubiquitous in the environment and are found naturally in soil, water and sediment. All are assimilated by species residing in the sediment, water or soil and are essential for maintaining a good chemical balance. It is therefore unlikely that inorganic phosphates of this nature would be toxic to sediment organisms and hence toxicity studies are scientifically unjustified.

PNEC soil
No data is available for soil macroorganisms. Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+ and PO43- ions are ubiquitous in the environment and are found naturally in soil, water and sediment. All are assimilated by species residing in the sediment, water or soil and are essential for maintaining a good chemical balance. Furthermore inorganic phosphate fertilizers (containing Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+ and PO4- ions) are often added to soils to improve soil quality. Given the extensive use of inorganic phosphates as soil fertilizers and the natural occurrence of the ions in the environment it is unlikely that inorganic phosphates of this nature would have a detrimental effect on soil macroorganisms and plants and hence toxicity studies are scientifically unjustified.
PNEC oral
Inorganic phosphates are not considered to pose a risk of secondary poisoning as they are unlikely to bioaccumulate due to the fact that they are not lipophillic and will therefore not accumulate in fatty tissues. It not considered necessary to derive a PNEC to take into account the risk of secondary poisoning and no further testing is considered necessary.
8.2 Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls: Ensure work area is well ventilated or exhausted (where appropriate and in line with the exposure scenarios). Provide eye wash station. Respiratory protection: See annex for details of processes requiring respiratory protection. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory device such as EN141 or EN405, Type A. Skin protection: Laboratory coat or overalls and plastic or rubber boots. Store protective clothing separately. Eye protection: Tightly sealed chemical safety goggles (compliant with EN 166:2001) Hand protection: Wear suitable gloves that are compliant with EN 374.

The substance has been assessed with regards to the data requirements of Annex X of REACH
12.2 Persistence and degradability
Disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate is an inorganic substance, biodegradation studies are not applicable. No further testing is deemed to be necessary.
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
Disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate is hydrolysed to orthophosphate and sodium ions in aqueous and biological systems. The degradation products of disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate are essential nutrients (food elements) for plants, and stimulate the growth of water plants (macrophytes) and/or algae (phytoplankton) and are ubiquitous in the environment. The potential for bioaccumulation is therefore considered to be minimal.
12.4 Mobility in soil
No data available: A batch equilibrium study according to OECD Guideline 106 was deemed to be not applicable to disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate for the following reasons: Firstly, analysis of the test material may not be possible due to interference from the soil extracts that may leach into the aqueous media during the test. This would prevent quantification of the test material. In addition, the mobility of the test item would be dependent on the anion exchange capacity of the soils as the main component of the test material is an anion. This absorption relationship would not be anticipated to correlate with the organic carbon content of the soils and is considered to be beyond the scope of the OECD 106 method.
12.5 Results of PBT and vPvB assessment
According to the Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment, Chapter R.11: PBT Assessment, the PBT and vPvB criteria of Annex XIII to the regulation do not apply to inorganic substances. Therefore disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate is not considered to require any further assessment of PBT properties.
12.6 Other adverse effects
No sediment or terrestrial toxicity data exists. Substance is not considered to be hazardous to sediment dwelling or terrestrial organisms. According to the criteria of the European classification and labelling system, the substance does not require classification as hazardous for the environment

3. Operational conditions
3. 1 Operational conditions related with frequency and quantities of use
Duration of exposure at workplace:
24 hours/day (3 working shifts of 8 hours/shift)
Frequency of exposure at workplace:
365 days/year for each worker
Annual amount used per site:
The daily and annual amount/emission per site is not considered to be the main determinant for environmental exposure.
3.2 Operational conditions related with substance/ product
Physical state Solid / Liquid
Concentration of substance in mixture
A concentration of 100% w/w was used to assess exposure to the solid substance. The SAPP concentration in the aqueous mixtures was set to 5-25% w/w.
3.3 Other relevant operational conditions
The substance is manufactured on a large scale in closed, continuous processes by neutralisation of purified phosphoric acid with sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate. The type of poylphosphate produced depends on the degree of neutralisation of the liquor and the temperature and residence time in the kiln. After subsequent drying and condensation of the obtained orthophosphate solution in a spray tower or rotary kiln SAPP is produced. After heating for a length of time (ageing step) the product is slowly cooled down. The cooled product may be hydrated and milled or screened to obtain various particle sizes. Depending on the setup of the SAPP plant, fine or coarse powders or granules are obtained. In addition, SAPP is also formulated into aqueous mixtures in maximum concentrations ranging from 5 - 25% w/w. Samples of the manufactured SAPP have to be taken regularly and are analysed for quality assurance in an on-site laboratory. Workers operate the processes by remote control and do regular inspection rounds at each shift. The manufactured substance is automatically transferred to storage tanks at dedicated facilities. Workers are loading transport containers or bags with solid product at dedicated facilities. In case of defects, such as leakage of pipes or gaskets, repair and maintenance work is done after the affected part of the system has been separated from the process, completely emptied and flushed with water where possible. Cleaning tasks such as wiping of floors or manufacturing and packaging equipment are performed regularly.
4. Risk Management Measures
4.1 RMMs related to workers
Organisational measures
The employer must ensure that the required PPE is available and used according to instructions (provide training if necessary). PPE are required when breaching the system or handling the pure substance and concentrated solutions.
SAFETY DATA SHEET Date of issue: xxx
Disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate
Revision date: X Version: XX Page 16/77
NB. Please read the NOTICE on the front page.
Eye wash stations should be available in case of accidental contact.
Technical measures
Transport over pipes, technical barrel filling/emptying of barrel with automatic systems (suction pumps etc.) (Good practice)
Use of pliers, grip arms with long handles with manual use “to avoid direct contact and exposure by splashes (no working over one’s head)” (Good practice)
Store in cool, dry, clean, well ventilate areas. (Good practice).
Local exhaust / general ventilation should be present when solids are handled to reduce the likelihood of inhalation exposure to dusts.
Workers wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves, breathing masks and safety glasses when breaching the system or else being in contact with the undiluted substance.
Respiratory protection
Respiratory protection: Personal respiratory protection is not required but exposure to dusts from the handling of solid materials should be reduced by the use of local exhaust ventilation. If local exhaust ventilation is not present then it will be necessary to use personal respiratory protection that is compliant with EN 141 or EN 405.
Hand protection
Hand protection is recommended: impervious chemical resistant protective gloves. Material: chloroprene gloves or equivalent.
Eye protection The use of safety goggles when handling the undiluted substance is required due to the eye irritating properties of SAPP. Goggles or face protection shield should be consistent with EN 166 or equivalent.
Skin and body protection
Wearing of suitable protective clothing and rubber boots is recommended.
Hygiene measures
Keep away from foodstuffs, drinks and tobacco. Wash hands before breaks and at end of work. Keep work clothes separate.
4.2 RMMs related to the environment
Organisational measures
Emissions to the environment must meet the requirements of Council Directive 96/61/EC and National Regulations concerning phosphate in industrial wastewater.
Abatement measures related with wastewater
The efficiency of the process is maximised in such a way that minimal emission of phosphates into the wastewater will occur. In addition, phosphate can be precipitated from the wastewater by addition of metal ions.
Abatement measures waste air and solid waste
Emissions of particles into the air of workplaces or the atmosphere can be significantly reduced by the use of cyclones, gas scrubbers or bag filters. Solid and liquid waste has to be incinerated or appropriately disposed of as chemical waste.
4.3 Waste related measures
Type of waste Liquid waste, solid residues.
Disposal technique
The release of phosphates to wastewater is highly regulated. The residue of the containers or the used container itself should be disposed in accordance with local requirements. See Section 13 of the SDS for more information.
Fraction released to environment during waste treatment
Not determined.

ECETOC TRA (2010), MEASE (ver 1.02.01, April 2010, EBRC) (used for inorganic liquids and PROC 26).
Workers (oral) The manufacture and processing of SAPP will not notably contribute to the oral intake of phosphates.
Workers (inhalation)
DNEL: Worker, long-term, systemic, inhalation: 2.79 mg/m

It is also considered that workplace exposure limits for dust are also applicable to this substance in the countries in which the substance is manufactured and used. Therefore, the exposure estimates will also be compared against a relevant general dust limit for an inhalable fraction of 10 mg/m3 as described by the occupational exposure limits detailed in the Technical Rules for Hazardous Materials – TRGS 900, January 2006 (Germany). This applies to both industrial and professional use as although the two settings are not directly comparable, it may be prudent to assess both the DNEL and the industrial against the same values both for consistency and for worker safety.
A comparison of both the DNEL and a dust limit will ensure that downstream users have enough information on the required RMMs to ensure safe use in line with regional or national limits.
A number of industrial activities associated with the manufacture and processing of SAPP may result in inhalation exposure of workers to the substance. The risk characterisation ratios for these activities are given in the table below. Workers handling the pure, solid substance are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles. The use of appropriate gloves and working suits is recommended. It is concluded that conditions can be defined under which the potential health risks from the manufacture and processing of SAPP are adequately controlled.

Workers (dermal)
No systemic toxicity effects are expected due to the inorganic nature of the substance however local effects may occur but these effects will not be dose-dependent but will depend on the concentration of the substance present in the mixture/solution used in a specific application.
Indirect exposure via the environment
No indirect exposure of humans via the environment is expected for SAPP, as the substance can be effectively removed from the wastewater. Thus, no assessment of indirect exposure of humans via the environment is performed.
Consumer exposure
No direct consumer exposure is anticipated with the manufacture and processing of SAPP. It is concluded that the manufacture and processing of SAPP is of no risk for the general public.
5.2. Environmental exposure (qualitative assessment)
Environmental release
The production of SAPP can potentially result in aquatic emissions and locally increase the phosphate (PO4
3-) concentration. Phosphates reaching surface water increase the
phosphorus content in the water body which may cause eutrophication and water quality deterioration.
Waste water treatment plants (WWTP)
Phosphorus should be removed from industrial wastewater before it is released to the environment. This can be done by chemical treatment (by precipitation with the help of aluminium or iron addition) or biological treatments. A high degree of removal can be reliably achieved by the available phosphorus removal techniques. Site-specific conditions such as flow rate of the receiving surface water body and phosphorus concentration in the receiving surface water body should be taken into account when implementing an appropriate wastewater treatment. Council Directive 96/61/EC concerning integrated pollution prevention and control and national regulations concerning phosphates in industrial wastewater have to be followed to minimise the risk of eutrophication due to phosphate releases.
Aquatic pelagic compartment
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.

Sediments No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or sediment organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Soil and groundwater
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Atmospheric compartment
The manufacture and processing of SAPP is not considered to pose a risk to the atmospheric compartment.
Secondary poisoning
Bioaccumulation in organisms is not relevant for inorganic phosphates.

3. Operational conditions
3. 1 Operational conditions related with frequency and quantities of use
Duration of exposure at workplace:
8 hours/day
Frequency of exposure at workplace:
Frequency of task: once per day
Annual amount used per site:
The daily and annual amount/emission per site is not considered to be the main determinant for environmental exposure.
3.2 Operational conditions related with substance/ product
Physical state Solid / Liquid
Concentration of substance in mixture
A concentration of 100% w/w was used to assess exposure to the solid substance.
The SAPP concentration in the aqueous mixtures was set to 5–25% w/w.
3.3 Other relevant operational conditions
The fine chemicals industry uses SAPP in the manufacture of dyes and auxiliary chemicals for textiles, leather and paper and also ‘non-ink’ applications such as the manufacturing of printing plates, sleeves and in solvent mixtures. Formulators mix the substance into a variety of final products, such as toothpaste, oral care products, construction materials and cleaners. The substance as a solid product or in aqueous solution is delivered to chemical or formulation plants in appropriate containers and unloaded at dedicated facilities, stored at the chemical plants and formulation sites and on demand automatically transferred to the chemical synthesis or formulation process. Samples may be taken from the delivered material and analysed in on-site laboratories for quality assurance. The manufacture of chemicals and formulation of solid or liquid mixtures is performed in a wide variety of processes ranging from closed, continuous or batch processes to semi-closed or open batch processes. Chemical synthesis and formulation involves an extensive mixing or blending step that may run continuously during a working shift of 8 hours. Workers have to control the formulation process, do regular inspection rounds and perform cleaning, repair and maintenance tasks. The final mixtures may be transferred to storage tanks and subsequently weighed, filled into small containers, packaged and made ready for shipment at dedicated filling lines. Formulated preparations may be agglomerated to form tablets, e.g. of detergent and dishwashing powders.

Workers (dermal)
No systemic toxicity effects are expected due to the inorganic nature of the substance however local effects may occur but these effects will not be dose-dependent but will depend on the concentration of the substance present in the mixture/solution used in a specific application.
Indirect exposure via the environment
No indirect exposure of humans via the environment is expected for SAPP, as the substance can be effectively removed from the wastewater. Thus, no assessment of indirect exposure of humans via the environment is performed.
Consumer exposure
No direct consumer exposure is anticipated with the use of SAPP as a raw material and additive. It is concluded that the use of SAPP in manufacture of dyes and auxiliary chemicals and mixing into final products (including dentifrice, oral care products, water treatment chemicals and construction materials) is of no risk for the general public.

5.2. Environmental exposure (qualitative assessment)
Environmental release
The use of SAPP can potentially result in aquatic emissions and locally increase the phosphate (PO4
3-) concentration. Phosphates reaching surface water increase the
phosphorus content in the water body which may cause eutrophication and water quality deterioration.
Waste water treatment plants (WWTP)
Phosphorus should be removed from industrial wastewater before it is released to the environment. This can be done by chemical treatment (by precipitation with the help of aluminium or iron addition) or biological treatments. A high degree of removal can be reliably achieved by the available phosphorus removal techniques. Site-specific conditions such as flow rate of the receiving surface water body and phosphorus concentration in the receiving surface water body should be taken into account when implementing an appropriate wastewater treatment. Council Directive 96/61/EC concerning integrated pollution prevention and control and national regulations concerning phosphates in industrial wastewater have to be followed to minimise the risk of eutrophication due to phosphate releases.
Aquatic pelagic compartment
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Sediments No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or sediment organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Soil and groundwater
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Atmospheric compartment
The use of SAPP as a raw material and additive is not considered to pose a risk to the atmospheric compartment.
Secondary poisoning
Bioaccumulation in organisms is not relevant for inorganic phosphates.

3. Operational conditions
3. 1 Operational conditions related with frequency and quantities of use
Duration of exposure at workplace:
8 hours/day
Frequency of exposure at workplace:
Frequency of task: once per day
Annual amount used per site:
The daily and annual amount/emission per site is not considered to be the main determinant for environmental exposure.
3.2 Operational conditions related with substance/ product
Physical state
Solid / Liquid
Concentration of substance in mixture
A concentration of 100% w/w was used to assess exposure to the solid substance.
The SAPP concentration in the aqueous solutions delivered to downstream users was set to 5–25% w/w.
The concentration in the working solution was set to 1–5% w/w.
3.3 Other relevant operational conditions
The textile and leather industry uses SAPP and products containing the substance prior to or after tanning and as sequestering agent during dyeing. The pulp and paper industry uses SAPP as a bleaching agent for pulps. The solid substance or aqueous solutions containing SAPP are delivered to textile, leather and paper manufacturing and processing plants in appropriate containers and stored on-site until use. Diluted aqueous solutions are on demand prepared from the undiluted raw material products and transferred into the processes. Leather tanning, textile dyeing and pulp bleaching is performed in closed or open batch processes by dipping or pouring, which may be done either automatically or manually. Manual processes may involve the mixing of solutions by hand. Solutions of SAPP may also be used in industrial spray applications.
4. Risk Management Measures
4.1 RMMs related to workers
Organisational measures
The employer must ensure that the required PPE is available and used according to instructions (provide training if necessary). PPE are required when breaching the system or handling the pure substance and concentrated solutions.
Eye wash stations should be available in case of accidental contact.
SAFETY DATA SHEET Date of issue: xxx
Disodium dihydrogenpyrophosphate
Revision date: X Version: XX Page 27/77
NB. Please read the NOTICE on the front page.
Technical measures
Transport over pipes, technical barrel filling/emptying of barrel with automatic systems (suction pumps etc.) (Good practice)
Use of pliers, grip arms with long handles with manual use “to avoid direct contact and exposure by splashes (no working over one’s head)” (Good practice)
Store in cool, dry, clean, well ventilate areas. (Good practice).
Local exhaust / general ventilation should be present when solids are handled and should be working at 90% efficiency.
Workers wear appropriate personal protection equipment, such as gloves, working suits and safety glasses, when handling the SAPP in solid form or as solutions.
Respiratory protection
Respiratory protection: LEV and personal respiratory equipment with 90% efficiency will be required to lower the occupational exposure resulting from industrial spraying to acceptable levels. In addition, exposure to dusts from the handling of solid materials should be reduced by the use of local exhaust ventilation.
Hand protection
Hand protection is required when spraying: impervious chemical resistant protective gloves. Material: chloroprene gloves or equivalent.
Eye protection
Workers handling concentrated SAPP solutions or pure, solid substances are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles. Goggles or face protection shield should be consistent with EN 166 or equivalent.
Skin and body protection
Wearing of suitable protective clothing and rubber boots is recommended. If spraying, skin protection is required.
Hygiene measures
Keep away from foodstuffs, drinks and tobacco. Wash hands before breaks and at end of work. Keep work clothes separate.
4.2 RMMs related to the environment
Organisational measures
Emissions to the environment must meet the requirements of Council Directive 96/61/EC and National Regulations concerning phosphate in industrial wastewater.
Abatement measures related with wastewater
The efficiency of the process is maximised in such a way that minimal emission of phosphates into the wastewater will occur. In addition, phosphate can be precipitated from the wastewater by addition of metal ions.
Abatement measures waste air and solid waste
Emissions of particles into the air of workplaces or the atmosphere can be significantly reduced by the use of cyclones, gas scrubbers or bag filters. Solid and liquid waste has to be incinerated or appropriately disposed of as chemical waste.
4.3 Waste related measures
Type of waste
Liquid waste, solid residues.
Disposal technique
The release of phosphates to wastewater is highly regulated. The residue of the containers or the used container itself should be disposed in accordance with local requirements. See Section 13 of the SDS for more information.
Fraction released to environment during waste treatment
Not determined.
5. Prediction of exposure and comparison of predicted exposure with DNELs (Risk Characterisation)

Workers (oral)
The use of SAPP for leather, textiles and paper manufacturing and treatment and use in dyes and auxiliary chemicals and construction chemicals will not notably contribute to the oral intake of phosphates.
Workers (inhalation)
DNEL: Worker, long-term, systemic, inhalation: 44.08 mg/m

It is also considered that workplace exposure limits for dust are applicable to this substance in the countries in which the substance is manufactured and used. Therefore, the exposure estimates will also be compared against a relevant general dust limit for an inhalable fraction of 10 mg/m3 as described by the occupational exposure limits detailed in the Technical Rules for Hazardous Materials – TRGS 900, January 2006 (Germany). This applies to both industrial and professional use as although the two settings are not directly comparable, it may be prudent to assess both the DNEL and the industrial against the same values both for consistency and for worker safety.
A comparison of both the DNEL and a dust limit will ensure that downstream users have enough information on the required RMMs to ensure safe use in line with regional or national limits.Various industrial activities associated with leather, textiles and paper manufacturing and treatment may result in inhalation exposure of workers to SAPP. The risk characterisation ratios for these activities are given in the table below.
Workers handling concentrated SAPP solutions or pure, solid substances are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles. The use of appropriate gloves and working suits is recommended. It is concluded that conditions can be defined under which the potential health risks from the use of SAPP in leather, textiles and paper manufacturing and treatment are adequately controlled.

4.2 RMMs related to the environment
Organisational measures
Emissions to the environment must meet the requirements of Council Directive 96/61/EC and National Regulations concerning phosphate in industrial wastewater.
Abatement measures related with wastewater
The efficiency of the process is maximised in such a way that minimal emission of phosphates into the wastewater will occur. In addition, phosphate can be precipitated from the wastewater by addition of metal ions.
Abatement measures waste air and solid waste
Emissions of particles into the air of workplaces or the atmosphere can be significantly reduced by the use of cyclones, gas scrubbers or bag filters. Solid and liquid waste has to be incinerated or appropriately disposed of as chemical waste.
4.3 Waste related measures

It is also considered that workplace exposure limits for dust are applicable to this substance in the countries in which the substance is manufactured and used. Therefore, the exposure estimates will also be compared against a relevant general dust limit for an inhalable fraction of 10 mg/m3 as described by the occupational exposure limits detailed in the Technical Rules for Hazardous Materials – TRGS 900, January 2006 (Germany). This applies to both industrial and professional use as although the two settings are not directly comparable, it may be prudent to assess both the DNEL and the industrial against the same values both for consistency and for worker safety. A comparison of both the DNEL and a dust limit will ensure that downstream users have enough information on the required RMMs to ensure safe use in line with regional or national limits.
The use of solid SAPP or its aqueous solutions as neutralising agent in open processes of polymer manufacture may lead to inhalation exposure to the substance. The risk characterisation ratios for handling of SAPP in open processes are given in the table below.
Workers handling concentrated SAPP solutions or pure, solid substances are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles. The use of appropriate gloves and working suits is recommended. It is concluded that conditions can be defined under which the potential health risks from the use of SAPP as neutralising agent are adequately controlled.

of the substance present in the mixture/solution used in a specific application.
Indirect exposure via the environment
No indirect exposure of humans via the environment is expected for SAPP, as the substance can be effectively removed from the wastewater. Thus, no assessment of indirect exposure of humans via the environment is performed.
Consumer exposure
No direct consumer exposure is anticipated with the use of SAPP as a neutralising agent in manufacture of polymers. It is concluded that the use of SAPP for this purpose is of no risk for the general public.
5.2. Environmental exposure (qualitative assessment)
Environmental release
The use of SAPP can potentially result in aquatic emissions and locally increase the phosphate (PO4
3-) concentration. Phosphates reaching surface water increase the phosphorus content in the
water body which may cause eutrophication and water quality deterioration.
Waste water treatment plants (WWTP)
Phosphorus should be removed from industrial wastewater before it is released to the environment. This can be done by chemical treatment (by precipitation with the help of aluminium or iron addition) or biological treatments. A high degree of removal can be reliably achieved by the available phosphorus removal techniques. Site-specific conditions such as flow rate of the receiving surface water body and phosphorus concentration in the receiving surface water body should be taken into account when implementing an appropriate wastewater treatment. Council Directive 96/61/EC concerning integrated pollution prevention and control and national regulations concerning phosphates in industrial wastewater have to be followed to minimise the risk of eutrophication due to phosphate releases.
Aquatic pelagic compartment
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Sediments No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or sediment organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Soil and groundwater
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Atmospheric compartment
The use of SAPP as a neutralising agent in manufacture of polymers is not considered to pose a risk to the atmospheric compartment.

* % efficiency
Workers (dermal)
No systemic toxicity effects are expected due to the inorganic nature of the substance however local effects may occur but these effects will not be dose-dependent but will depend on the concentration of the substance present in the mixture/solution used in a specific application.
Indirect exposure via the environment
No indirect exposure of humans via the environment is expected for SAPP, as the substance can be effectively removed from the wastewater. Thus, no assessment of indirect exposure of humans via the environment is performed.
Consumer exposure
No direct consumer exposure is anticipated with the use of SAPP in drilling fluid applications. It is concluded that the use of SAPP in drilling fluid applications is of no risk for the general public.
5.2. Environmental exposure (qualitative assessment)
Environmental release
Pyrophosphates are listed in the OSPAR list of substances/preparations used and discharged offshore which are considered to pose little or no risk to the environment (PLONOR). Further, national regulations are available to regulate the waste management from offshore and mining industry.
Waste water treatment plants (WWTP)
Phosphorus should be removed from industrial wastewater before it is released to the environment. This can be done by chemical treatment (by precipitation with the help of aluminium or iron addition) or biological treatments. A high degree of removal can be reliably achieved by the available phosphorus removal techniques. Site-specific conditions such as flow rate of the receiving surface water body and phosphorus concentration in the receiving surface water body should be taken into account when implementing an appropriate wastewater treatment. Council Directive 96/61/EC concerning integrated pollution prevention and control and national regulations concerning phosphates in industrial wastewater have to be followed to minimise the risk of eutrophication due to phosphate releases.
Aquatic pelagic compartment
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Sediments No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or sediment organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Soil and groundwater
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Atmospheric compartment
The use of SAPP in drilling fluid applications is not considered to pose a risk to the atmospheric compartment.

3. Operational conditions
3. 1 Operational conditions related with frequency and quantities of use
Duration of exposure at workplace:
8 hours/day
Frequency of exposure at workplace:
Frequency of task: once per day
Annual amount used per site:
The daily and annual amount/emission per site is not considered to be the main determinant for environmental exposure.
3.2 Operational conditions related with substance/ product
Physical state
Solid / Liquid
Concentration of substance in mixture
A concentration of 100% w/w was used to assess exposure to the solid substance.
The concentration of SAPP in undiluted aqueous solutions was set to 5–25% w/w.
3.3 Other relevant operational conditions
No information about frequency and duration of the various tasks is available. In the first-tier assessment of exposure a frequency of once a day and an exposure duration of 8 hours was considered. Certain professional activities with solid SAPP (high dustiness) result in exposures greater than the DNEL (PROC 1, PROC 8a, PROC 19/PROC 5). These activities were subsequently modelled using the Advanced REACH Tool ver. 1.0 (ART Consortium 2010) in order to determine a more refined estimate of exposure concentrations. As the ART tool was not specifically developed for professional uses, attempts have been made to model the described processes in a manner that reflects a worst-case for the scenario (e.g. No secondary containment, minimal LEV, etc). Where the exposure estimates were found to be greater than the DNEL, minimal RMM’s were added, the results of the risk characterisation are presented in the table below. This tier 2 assessment indicated that all process were safe, with the exception of outdoor professional spray applications, for which personal respiratory equipment (PRE) with an efficiency of 75% is required to ensure an exposure level below the OEL of 10 mg/m

NB. Please read the NOTICE on the front page.
Organisational measures
The employer must ensure that the required PPE is available and used according to instructions (provide training if necessary). PPE are required when breaching the system or handling the pure substance and concentrated solutions.
Eye wash stations should be available in case of accidental contact.
Technical measures
Store in cool, dry, clean, well ventilate areas. (Good practice).
Workers wear appropriate personal protection equipment, such as gloves, working suits and safety glasses, when handling the SAPP in solid form or as solutions.
Local exhaust ventilation may be present in some situations where solids are handled.
Respiratory protection
Respiratory protection: Personal respiratory protection is not required but exposure to dusts from the handling of solid materials should be reduced by the use of local exhaust ventilation. If local exhaust ventilation is not present then it will be necessary to use personal respiratory protection that is compliant with EN 141 or EN 405.
Hand protection
Hand protection is recommended: impervious chemical resistant protective gloves. Material: chloroprene gloves or equivalent.
Eye protection
Workers handling concentrated SAPP solutions or pure, solid substances are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles. Goggles or face protection shield should be consistent with EN 166 or equivalent.
Skin and body protection
Wearing of suitable protective clothing and rubber boots is recommended.
Hygiene measures
Keep away from foodstuffs, drinks and tobacco. Wash hands before breaks and at end of work. Keep work clothes separate.
4.2 RMMs related to the environment
Organisational measures
Emissions to the environment must meet the requirements of Council Directive 96/61/EC and National Regulations concerning phosphate in industrial wastewater.
Abatement measures related with wastewater
The efficiency of the process is maximised in such a way that minimal emission of phosphates into the wastewater will occur. In addition, phosphate can be precipitated from the wastewater by addition of metal ions.
Abatement measures waste air and solid waste
Emissions of particles into the air of workplaces or the atmosphere can be significantly reduced by the use of cyclones, gas scrubbers or bag filters. Solid and liquid waste has to be incinerated or appropriately disposed of as chemical waste.
4.3 Waste related measures
Type of waste
Liquid waste. Packaging material containing solid waste.
Disposal technique
The release of phosphates to wastewater is highly regulated. The residue of the containers or the used container itself should be disposed in accordance with local requirements. See Section 13 of the SDS for more information.
Fraction released to environment during waste treatment
Not determined.

Advanced REACH Tool ver. 1.0 (ART Consortium 2010)
Workers (oral)
The end use of SAPP in industrial and professional settings will not notably contribute to the oral intake of phosphates.
Workers (inhalation)
DNEL: Worker, long-term, systemic, inhalation: 44.08 mg/m

It is also considered that workplace exposure limits for dust are applicable to this substance in the countries in which the substance is manufactured and used. Therefore, the exposure estimates will also be compared against a relevant general dust limit for an inhalable fraction of 10 mg/m3 as described by the occupational exposure limits detailed in the Technical Rules for Hazardous Materials – TRGS 900, January 2006 (Germany). This applies to both industrial and professional use as although the two settings are not directly comparable, it may be prudent to assess both the DNEL and the industrial against the same values both for consistency and for worker safety. A comparison of both the DNEL and a dust limit will ensure that downstream users have enough information on the required RMMs to ensure safe use in line with regional or national limits. Various industrial activities associated with industrial and professional end use may result in inhalation exposure of workers to the substance. The risk characterisation ratios for these activities are given in the table below. Workers handling concentrated SAPP solutions or pure, solid substances are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles. The use of appropriate gloves and working suits is recommended. It is concluded that conditions can be defined under which the potential health risks from industrial and professional use are adequately controlled.

Workers (dermal)
No systemic toxicity effects are expected due to the inorganic nature of the substance however local effects may occur but these effects will not be dose-dependent but will depend on the concentration of the substance present in the mixture/solution used in a specific application.
Indirect exposure via the environment
No indirect exposure of humans via the environment is expected for SAPP, as the substance can be effectively removed from the wastewater. Thus, no assessment of indirect exposure of humans via the environment is performed.
Consumer exposure
No direct consumer exposure is anticipated with the use of SAPP for industrial and professional end use. It is concluded that the use of SAPP in metal and non-metal surface treatment, metal working fluids, lubricants, greases, heat transfer fluids and hydraulic fluids is of no risk for the general public.
5.2. Environmental exposure (qualitative assessment)
Environmental release
The use of SAPP can potentially result in aquatic emissions and locally increase the phosphate (PO4
3-) concentration. Phosphates reaching surface water increase the phosphorus content in the
water body which may cause eutrophication and water quality deterioration.
Waste water treatment plants (WWTP)
Phosphorus should be removed from industrial wastewater before it is released to the environment. This can be done by chemical treatment (by precipitation with the help of aluminium or iron addition) or biological treatments. A high degree of removal can be reliably achieved by the available phosphorus removal techniques. Site-specific conditions such as flow rate of the receiving surface water body and phosphorus concentration in the receiving surface water body should be taken into account when implementing an appropriate wastewater treatment. Council Directive 96/61/EC concerning integrated pollution prevention and control and national regulations concerning phosphates in industrial wastewater have to be followed to minimise the risk of eutrophication due to phosphate releases.
Aquatic pelagic compartment
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Sediments No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or sediment organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Soil and groundwater
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Atmospheric compartment
Industrial and professional end use of SAPP is not considered to pose a risk to the atmospheric compartment.
Secondary poisoning
Bioaccumulation in organisms is not relevant for inorganic phosphates. m

3. Operational conditions
3. 1 Operational conditions related with frequency and quantities of use
Duration of exposure at workplace:
The transfer of cleaners may occur once a day during a short period of time of approximately 15 minutes. This may be followed by a short mixing and blending process of 15 minutes duration. The cleaning process occurs inside the equipment so that there is very limited opportunity for exposure. At the end of the cleaning procedure the equipment will be emptied and flushed with water to remove residuals of cleaning solutions and impurities. The watering will considerably dilute any remaining SAPP in the milking equipment.
Frequency of exposure at workplace:
Annual amount used per site:
The daily and annual amount/emission per site is not considered to be the main determinant for environmental exposure.
3.2 Operational conditions related with substance/ product
Physical state
Solid / Liquid
Concentration of substance in mixture
No information about the concentration of the substance in cleaners or in dilute solutions is available. In the first-tier assessment of exposure the concentration of SAPP in liquid or solid cleaning products was set to 5–25% w/w.
3.3 Other relevant operational conditions
SAPP is used as cleaning agent in dairy applications, for example to remove soapstone. Appropriate liquid or powdery cleaning agents are available to professional users. The products are filled into the milking equipment at dedicated facilities. A short mixing and blending process with some opportunity for exposure may follow. The cleaning process occurs inside the equipment so that there is limited opportunity for exposure.
4. Risk Management Measures
4.1 RMMs related to workers
Organisational measures
The employer must ensure that the required PPE is available and used according to instructions (provide training if necessary). PPE are required when breaching the system or handling the pure substance and concentrated solutions.
Eye wash stations should be available in case of accidental contact.
Technical measures
Store in cool, dry, clean, well ventilate areas. (Good practice).
Workers handling concentrated SAPP solutions or pure, solid substances are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles.
Respiratory protection
Respiratory protection: Respiratory protection is not required but breathing masks may be used when solid cleaners are handled.
Hand Hand protection is recommended: impervious chemical resistant protective gloves. Material:

protection chloroprene gloves or equivalent.
Eye protection
Workers handling concentrated SAPP solutions or pure, solid substances are obliged to wear chemical resistant safety goggles. Goggles or face protection shield should be consistent with EN 166 or equivalent.
Skin and body protection
Wearing of suitable protective clothing and rubber boots is recommended.
Hygiene measures
Keep away from foodstuffs, drinks and tobacco. Wash hands before breaks and at end of work. Keep work clothes separate.
4.2 RMMs related to the environment
Organisational measures
Emissions to the environment must meet the requirements of Council Directive 96/61/EC and National Regulations concerning phosphate in industrial wastewater.
Abatement measures related with wastewater
The efficiency of the process is maximised in such a way that minimal emission of phosphates into the wastewater will occur. In addition, phosphate can be precipitated from the wastewater by addition of metal ions.
Abatement measures waste air and solid waste
Emissions of particles into the air of workplaces or the atmosphere can be significantly reduced by the use of cyclones, gas scrubbers or bag filters. Solid and liquid waste has to be incinerated or appropriately disposed of as chemical waste.
4.3 Waste related measures
Type of waste
Liquid waste. Packaging material containing solid waste.
Disposal technique
The release of phosphates to wastewater is highly regulated. The residue of the containers or the used container itself should be disposed in accordance with local requirements. See Section 13 of the SDS for more information.

It is also considered that workplace exposure limits for dust are applicable to this substance in the countries in which the substance is manufactured and used. Therefore, the exposure estimates will also be compared against a relevant general dust limit for an inhalable fraction of 10 mg/m3 as described by the occupational exposure limits detailed in the Technical Rules for Hazardous Materials – TRGS 900, January 2006 (Germany). This applies to both industrial and professional use as although the two settings are not directly comparable, it may be prudent to assess both the DNEL and the industrial against the same values both for consistency and for worker safety.
A comparison of both the DNEL and a dust limit will ensure that downstream users have enough information on the required RMMs to ensure safe use in line with regional or national limits.
Various professional activities associated with this cleaning activity may result in inhalation exposure of workers to SAPP. The risk characterisation ratios for these activities are given in the table below.

3. Operational conditions
3. 1 Operational conditions related with frequency and quantities of use
Duration of exposure at workplace:
No measured workplace concentrations or personal exposure concentrations are available to describe the professional use of SAPP in construction materials. The CEPE has developed exposure scenarios for consumer use of coatings in the context of the REACH regulation (CEPE 2009). These scenarios indicate a maximum duration of use ranging from 4 to 8 hours. No use frequency is given in the CEPE scenarios. The frequency of paint use by consumers is between 1 to 3 times a year depending on the type of paint used; the amount of paint used per application ranges from approximately 1 to 1.3 kg (RIVM 2007a).
Frequency of exposure at workplace:

Workers (dermal)
No systemic toxicity effects are expected due to the inorganic nature of the substance. Local effects may occur but these effects will not be dose-dependent but will depend on the concentration of the substance present in the mixture/solution used in a specific application.
Indirect exposure via the environment
No indirect exposure of humans via the environment is expected for SAPP, as the substance can be effectively removed from the wastewater. Thus, no assessment of indirect exposure of humans via the environment is performed.
Consumer exposure (inhalation)
DNEL: Consumer, long-term, systemic, inhalation: 10.87 mg/m

Consumer exposure from a range of construction and or do it yourself products is likely. The risk characterisation ratios for the main products are given in the table blow. Consumers handling D.I.Y products, paints and construction products are not expected to wear PRE or dermal protection, however absorption via the dermal route is not considered to be major route of exposure. Likewise, such products are not expected to contribute significantly to oral SAPP exposure and, as such, only the inhalation route is assessed. Filler and plaster products would not be expected to result in inhalation exposure (in accordance with ConsExpo).

5.2. Environmental exposure (qualitative assessment)
Environmental release
The use of SAPP can potentially result in aquatic emissions and locally increase the phosphate (PO4
3-) concentration. Phosphates reaching surface water increase the phosphorus content in the
water body which may cause eutrophication and water quality deterioration.
Waste water treatment plants (WWTP)
Phosphorus should be removed from industrial wastewater before it is released to the environment. This can be done by chemical treatment (by precipitation with the help of aluminium or iron addition) or biological treatments. A high degree of removal can be reliably achieved by the available phosphorus removal techniques. Site-specific conditions such as flow rate of the receiving surface water body and phosphorus concentration in the receiving surface water body should be taken into account when implementing an appropriate wastewater treatment.

concerning integrated pollution prevention and control and national regulations concerning phosphates in industrial wastewater have to be followed to minimise the risk of eutrophication due to phosphate releases.
Aquatic pelagic compartment
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Sediments No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on aqueous or sediment organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Soil and groundwater
No direct acute or long-term adverse effects on terrestrial organisms are anticipated with orthophosphates in the environment.
Atmospheric compartment
The use of SAPP in professional and consumer D.I.Y and construction products is not considered to pose a risk to the atmospheric compartment.
Secondary poisoning
Bioaccumulation in organisms is not relevant for inorganic phosphates.

5.1. Human exposure
Exposure estimation tool(s)
Not applicable
Consumer exposure
Consumer exposure to SAPP from the use of toothpaste is not assessed under REACH. The potential risk for consumers from the use of cosmetics and personal care products falls under the EU Cosmetics Directive.
Worker exposure
No occupational exposure to SAPP is expected from the use of toothpaste.
Indirect exposure via the environment
No indirect exposure of humans via the environment is expected for SAPP, as the substance can be effectively removed from the wastewater. Thus, no assessment of indirect exposure of humans via the environment is performed.
