摘要: Abstract Probabilistic material flow analysis and graph theory were combined to calculate predicted environmental concentrations (PECs) of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) in Swiss rivers: 543 river sections used assess the geographical variability nano-TiO 2 , nano-ZnO nano-Ag, measurements over a 20-year period at 21 locations served evaluate temporal variation. A conservative scenario assuming no ENM removal an optimistic covering complete transformation/deposition considered. varied by factor 5 due uncertain emissions (15%–85% quantiles emissions) up 10 variations flow). The results indicate highly variable local PECs location- time-dependent risk evaluation. Nano-TiO median ranged from 11 1′623 ng L −1 (conservative scenario) 1′618 ng L (optimistic scenario). equivalent values for nano-Ag factors 14 240 smaller.
