Exposure Assessment
Tools and Models
The Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) has developed Several
exposure assessment methods, databases, and predictive models to help
in evaluating what happens to chemicals when they are used and released
to the environment; and how workers, the general public, consumers and
the aquatic ecosystems may be exposed to chemicals.
See also: Chemical Screening Tool For Exposures &
Environmental Releases (ChemSTEER) ; Exposure, Fate
Assessment Screening Tool (E-FAST) ; Graphical Exposure
Modeling Systems (GEMS) ; Multi-Chamber Concentration
and Exposure Model (MCCEM) ; ReachScan ; Source
Ranking Database ; Wall Paint Exposure Assessment
Model(WPEM)
Exposure, Fate Assessment Screening Tool (E-FAST) Provides
screening-level estimates of the concentrations of chemicals released
to air, surface water,landfills, and from consumer products. Estimates
potential inhalation and ingestion dose rates resulting from these releases.
Modeled estimates of concentrations and doses are designed to reasonably
overestimate exposures, for use in screening level assessment.
