APPENDIX I<br />

For this IC both emission scenario <strong>and</strong> use category <strong>documents</strong> are available. The emission<br />

scenario document deals with wastewater <strong>and</strong> the local situation. The release scenarios in the A<strong>and</strong><br />

B-tables are applicable to the stage of processing printing <strong>and</strong> allied processes, <strong>and</strong> the<br />

production of pulp, paper <strong>and</strong> board (including paper dyeing). The stage of recovery (paper<br />

recycling) is also considered in the tables.<br />

Two UCs are specifically considered, i.e. UC 10 “Colouring agents” used as pigments in inks<br />

<strong>and</strong> as dyes <strong>for</strong> paper mass colouring, UC 20 <strong>and</strong> 31 (“Fillers” <strong>and</strong> “Impregnation agents”) both<br />

used in paper production <strong>and</strong> UC 45 “Reprographic agents” which is a “collection” of all kinds<br />

of uses <strong>and</strong> functions of substances in printing <strong>and</strong> allied processes.<br />

IC 13. Textile processing industry<br />

This IC covers treatment of fibres (“cleaning”, spinning, dyeing, etc.), weaving, <strong>and</strong> finishing<br />

(e.g. impregnation, coating, etc.).<br />

For this IC both emission scenario <strong>and</strong> use category <strong>documents</strong> are available. The release<br />

scenarios in the A- <strong>and</strong> B-tables are specific <strong>for</strong> IC 10 “Colouring agents” <strong>and</strong> general <strong>for</strong> other<br />

relevant UCs.<br />

IC 14. Paints, lacquers <strong>and</strong> varnishes industry<br />

Apart from the manufacture of coating products (stage of <strong>for</strong>mulation) such as paints this report<br />

<strong>and</strong> EUSES also consider application of these products as belonging to this IC. This has been<br />

done because otherwise many release scenarios would have to be introduced in many other ICs.<br />

These could include <strong>for</strong> example IC 5 “Personal/domestic” <strong>for</strong> private use, IC 6 “Public domain”<br />

<strong>for</strong> professional application by house painters <strong>and</strong> in (small) workshops, <strong>and</strong> many industrial<br />

applications. The latter could include IC 16 “Engineering industries: civil <strong>and</strong> mechanical” in the<br />
