Therefore, a hydrolysis-based extraction method was further developed, which accounts for the addition of hydrolyzable covalently bound polyfluoroalkylated side-chain polymers (SFPs) to the extractable organic fluorine portion of the mass balance proposed as "hydrolyzable organically bound fluorine" (HOF). To test this hypothesis, the method was applied to 39 different consumer products containing fluoropolymers or monomeric PFAS taken from four different categories: outdoor textiles, paper packaging, carpeting, and permanent baking sheets. We also evaluated the method's efficiency by extracting four synthesized fluorotelomer polyacrylate reference compounds. The total fluorine (TF) and extractable organically bound fluorine (EOF) values were measured through CIC using established protocols. The TF values ranged from sub-ppb to %-levels, depending on the compound class. All samples showed results for hydrolyzed organofluorine (HOF) between 0.03 and 76.3 μg/g, while most EOF values were lower (C8 (e.g. 580 µg/kg dw PFOS for Soil1), whereas the consumer product samples showed a more uniform distribution with regard to chain lengths from C4 to C8. Independent from quantified PFAS amounts via target analysis, µ-XRF mapping combined with µ-XANES spectroscopy was successfully applied to detect both point-specific concentration maxima and evenly distributed surface coatings of fluorinated organic contaminants in the corresponding samples.

Im Falle der per- und polyfluorierten alkylierten Substanzen (PFAS) stellen sich Wissenschaftler*innen weltweit seit über zehn Jahren diese Frage. Neben der etablierten Methodik der Einzelstoffanalytik (engl. target analytic) existieren Summenparameteranalysen zur Quantifizierung organisch gebundener fluorierter Verbindungen in Umweltmedien und Konsumprodukten. An der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) beschäftigen wir uns mit der Weiterentwicklung von Summenparametermethoden am Beispiel von PFAS-belasteten Umweltkompartimenten wie Böden, Klärschlämmen und Gewässerproben sowie PFAS-haltigen Konsumgütern. In diesem Beitrag stellen wir zwei ausgewählte Fallbeispiele vor und diskutieren die Vor- und Nachteile der Methoden im Vergleich zur Einzelstoffanalytik. 2023 Mitteilungen Umweltchemie Ökotox 29 2 40 44 2023-06-07 OPUS4-57634 Zeitschriftenartikel Simon, Franz-Georg; Kalbe, Ute Case Study on Secondary Building Materials for a Greener Economy Half of global material consumption involves mineral material. The circularity is still low so that the enhanced use of secondary building material is required to close loops. Three different secondary building materials are discussed based on exemplary research results: construction and demolition waste (C&D waste), soil-like material, and incineration bottom ash (IBA). Focus was placed on the environmental compatibility of the materials examined mainly by standardized leaching tests. C&D waste was investigated after a wet treatment using a jigging machine, and soil-like material and IBA were characterized with respect to their material composition. Their environmental compatibilities in particular were studied using standard leaching tests (batch tests and column tests). It was concluded that soil-like material can mostly be utilized even when the precautionary limit values set are exceeded by a factor of less than two. For C&D waste, the fine fraction below 2 mm and the content of brick material is problematic. IBA fulfills quality level "HMVA-2" following German regulations. Improved levels of utilization might be achievable with better treatment technologies.

Investigating the ecotoxicity of construction product eluates as multicomponent mixtures The release of hazardous compounds from construction products can harm human health and the environment. To improve the sustainability of construction materials, the leaching of substances from construction products and their potential environmental impact should be assessed. Twenty-seven construction products from different product groups were examined with a combination of standardized leaching tests (dynamic surface leaching test and percolation test) and biotests (algae, daphnia, fish egg, luminescent bacteria, umu and Ames fluctuation tests). To identify the released substances, extensive qualitative and quantitative chemical analyses were performed, including gas chromatographic and liquid chromatographic screening techniques. Results: Many of the tested eluates caused signifcant ecotoxic efects. Particularly high ecotoxicities were observed for grouts (lowest ineffective dilution (LID) up to 16384) and cork granules (LID up to 24578). The results of ecotoxicity tests allow the prioritization of the eluates that should be subjected to detailed chemical analyses. Organic screening by different methods and ranking the identifed substances based on recorded hazard classification is a suitable approach to identify the relevant toxic substances. Conclusions: Determining the ecotoxicity of eluates from construction products records the summary effect of all leachable substances. This instrument is especially useful for construction products of complex and largely unknown composition. The ecotoxicological and the chemical-analytical approach complement each other in an ideal way to characterize the potential hazard of eluates from construction products and to identify the environmentally hazardous components in these eluates. Our results confirm that the proposed harmonized methods for testing eluate toxicity are an adequate and applicable procedure to move toward a more sustainable way of building and to reduce toxic effects of construction products in their use phase in the environment.

Combination of leaching tests with ecotoxicity and chemical analysis - lessons learnt The presentation describes analytical methods to characterize eluates from leaching tests and identify organic substances in leachates. Chances to obtain complementary information from ecotoxtests and chemical analysis are discussed. 2022 Workshop: Ecotoxicological evaluation of construction products – test results, implementation in Guidance, Technical Standards and Ecolabelling Online meeting 21.03.2022 21.03.2022 2022-07-15 OPUS4-56239 Zeitschriftenartikel Schoknecht, Ute; Kalbe, Ute; Heisterkamp, I.; Kretzschmar, M.; Gartiser, S.; Happel, O.; Ilvonen, O. Release of substances from joint grouts based on various binder types and their ecotoxic effects Background: The leaching of substances and the ecotoxic effects of eluates were studied for joint grouts that are based on various types of binders. Eight products, two of them containing either epoxy resin, polybutadiene or polyurethane binders, or modifed cement, were investigated using harmonized leaching tests for construction products in combination with ecotoxicity tests on algae, daphnia, luminescent bacteria, fish eggs and mutagenicity in accordance with CEN/TR 17105. In addition to basic parameters, such as pH, TOC, and inorganic components, organic substances in the eluates were analysed by gas and liquid chromatography in combination with mass spectrometry. Quantitative analyses in combination with ecotoxicity data on selected substances were used to deduce which substances cause the observed ecotoxic effects. Results: Different patterns of ecotoxic effects were observed in joint grouts with different binder types. The most ecotoxic effects were observed in epoxy resin-based products, followed by polybutadiene-based products. Fewer ecotoxic effects were observed in polyurethane-based products and modifed cements. Some of these showed no ecotoxicity. Some of the substances in the eluates were identified and related to ecotoxic effects. 4-Tert-butylphenol and amines probably contributed to the ecotoxic effects of at least one of the epoxy resin-based renders, whereas cobalt is assumed to contribute to the toxic effect on algae of one of the polybutadiene-based products. However, only some of the leached substances could be identifed, and only some of the ecotoxic effects can be explained by the available information on the composition of eluates and known ecotoxic profiles of the identified substances. Conclusions: Ecotoxicity tests on eluates from leaching tests indicate whether environmentally hazardous substances can be leached from construction products. Combined ecotoxicity tests and chemical analysis of eluates from EU-wide harmonized leaching tests for construction products can provide information on substances that cause these effects. This supports the identifcation and development of environmentally friendly construction products. This study confirmed that ecotoxicity tests in accordance with CEN/TR 17105 are a tool well-suited to support the implementation of the European Commission's zero pollution vision for 2050 and to reduce pollution to levels no longer considered harmful to health and natural ecosystems.

Methoden und Kriterien zur Bewertung der Ökotoxizität von Produkten Die Umweltverträglichkeit von Bauprodukten, die in Kontakt mit Regen- oder Sickerwasser kommen, wurde durch Kombination normierter Elutions- (DSLT, Perkolationstest) und Ökotoxizitätstests (Algen, Daphnien, Fischeier, Leuchtbakterien) sowie Gentoxizitätstests (Ames, umu) untersucht. Ziel des Projektes war es einerseits, einen Beitrag zur Harmonisierung der Prüfmethoden unter CEN/TC 351 zu leisten und andererseits potentielle Produktgruppen, die sich für die Umweltzeichenvergabe des Blauen Engels eignen würden, zu erkennen. Durch umfangreiche qualitative und quantitative chemische Analysen (u. a. GC-MS- sowie LC-MS-Screening) wurden einige der freigesetzten Stoffe identifiziert und anhand von Literaturdaten ökotoxikologisch charakterisiert. Insgesamt wurden 34 Bauprodukte (Dachbahnen, Lacke, Wood-Plastic-Composites, Pflasterfugenmörtel, Korkgranulate, Schaumglasschotter, Wegedecken, Dichtmassen) untersucht. Hierbei wurden insbesondere bei den Fugenmörteln und Korkgranulaten sehr hohe Ökotoxizitäten (bis LID = 16384 bei den Fugenmörteln und LID = 24578 bei den Korkgranulaten) beobachtet. Algen- und Leuchtbakterientests waren in der Regel deutlich empfindlicher als der Daphnien- und Fischeitest. Die untersuchten Dachbahnen, Lacke, Wood-Plastic-Composites und Schaumglasschotter zeigten hingegen keine oder nur sehr geringe Ökotoxizitäten. Zur Qualitätssicherung und Validierung wurde ein Europäischer Ringversuch gemäß den Vorgaben der DIN ISO 5725 organisiert, durchgeführt und ausgewertet. Hierzu wurde ein Fugenmörtel als flächiges Produkt im DSLT und als gebrochenes körniges Produkt im Perkolationstests eluiert und die Eluate nachfolgend in den 29 teilnehmenden Laboren hinsichtlich ihrer Ökotoxizität untersucht. Hierbei wurden insgesamt plausible Ergebnisse und gute (<50 %) bis sehr gute (<20 %) Reproduzierbarkeiten erzielt. Es wird empfohlen, für die Produktgruppen Dachbahnen, Kunstrasen und Sportböden sowie Fugenmörtel Vergabekriterien für den Blauen Engel zu entwickeln Dessau-Roßlau Umweltbundesamt 2022 UBA-Texte 151 1 135 2022-12-22 OPUS4-54509 Zeitschriftenartikel Simon, Franz-Georg; Kalbe, Ute Measurement of the Environmental Impact of Materials This Special Issue, 'Measurement of the Environmental Impact of Materials', is focused on the impact that materials have on the environmental compartments of soil, water and air.
