STATEMENT OF SUBJECT MATTER AND PURPOSE 1.1. Procedure followed This assessment report has been established as a result of the evaluation of the active substance Peracetic acid as product-types 11 and 12 (PT 11: Preservatives for liquid cooling and processing systems, PT 12: Slimicides), carried out in the context of the work programme for the review of existing active substances provided for in Article 89 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, with a view to the possible approval of this substance. Peracetic acid (CAS no. 79-21-0) was notified as an existing active substance, by CEFIC Peracetic Acid Registration Group (PAR), hereafter referred to as the applicant, in product- types 11 and 12 (and 1-6). Commission Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007 of 4 December 20071 lays down the detailed rules for the evaluation of dossiers and for the decision-making process. In accordance with the provisions of Article 7(1) of that Regulation, Finland was designated as Rapporteur Member State to carry out the assessment on the basis of the dossier submitted by the applicant. The deadline for submission of a complete dossier for Peracetic acid as an active substance in Product Types 11 and 12 was 30 October 2008, in accordance with Annex V of Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007. On 3 October 2008, Finland competent authorities received a dossier from the applicant. The Rapporteur Member State accepted the dossier as complete for the purpose of the evaluation on 18 December 2008. On 3 July 2015, the Rapporteur Member State submitted to the ECHA and the applicant a copy of the evaluation report, hereafter referred to as the competent authority report. In order to review the competent authority report and the comments received on it, consultations of technical experts from all Member States (peer review) were organised by the Agency. Revisions agreed upon were presented at the Biocidal Products Committee and its Working Groups meetings and the competent authority report was amended accordingly. 1.2. Purpose of the assessment report The aim of the assessment report is to support the opinion of the Biocidal Products Committee and a decision on the approval of Peracetic acid for product-types 11 and 12, and, should it be approved, to facilitate the authorisation of individual biocidal products. In the evaluation of applications for product-authorisation, the provisions of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 shall be applied, in particular the provisions of Chapter IV, as well as the common principles laid down in Annex VI. 1 Commission Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007 of 4 December 2007 on the second phase of the 10-year work programme referred to in Article 16(2) of Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of biocidal products on the market. OJ L 325, 11.12.2007, p. 3 2 Peracetic acid Product-types 11 and 12 August 2016 For the implementation of the common principles of Annex VI, the content and conclusions of this assessment report, which is available from the Agency website shall be taken into account. However, where conclusions of this assessment report are based on data protected under the provisions of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, such conclusions may not be used to the benefit of another applicant, unless access to these data for that purpose has been granted to that applicant. 3 Peracetic acid Product-types 11 and 12 August 2016 2. OVERALL SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS 2.1. Presentation of the Active Substance 2.1.1. Identity, Physico-Chemical Properties & Methods of Analysis Identification of the active substance CAS-No. 79-21-0 CAS name Ethaneperoxoic acid EINECS-No. 201-186-8 Other No. (CIPAC, ELINCS) Not available IUPAC Name Peroxyethanoic acid Common name, synonyms Common name: Peracetic acid Synonyms: Acetyl hydroperoxide, Ethaneperoxoic acid, Peroxyacetic acid Molecular formula C2H4O3 Structural formula O H C O H3C O Molecular weight (g/mol) 76.05 g/mol The active substance is peracetic acid in an aqueous solution containing acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide. Peracetic acid is produced by reacting hydrogen peroxide with acetic acid in aqueous solution. In this process, peracetic acid is obtained as aqueous solutions containing peracetic acid, acetic acid, hydrogen peroxide. The manufacturing process leads into products with characteristics of a chemical equilibrium. The concentration of peracetic acid in solutions is typically in the range of 0.1 % - 15 % (w/w). Isolated peracetic acid, hence without water, does neither exist commercially nor is it used in the production/formulation of peracetic acid biocidal products. This evaluation covers the use of peracetic acid in product types 11 and 12. Two representative theoretical equilibrium products containing 5 % and 15 % peracetic acid have been defined in this dossier. Specifications: The pure peracetic acid cannot be isolated due to stability reasons, and the possible impurities can only be originate from the starting materials. Hence the specification is based on the starting materials acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide. The specification of acetic acid is >99.8% (w/w) in accordance with the Commission Regulation (EU) No 231/2012. For hydrogen peroxide the specification in its aqueous solution is 35 – 69.9 % (w/w), as indicated in the approval of Hydrogen peroxide CAR in product types 1-6. Impurities: The maximum impurities of acetic acid are in accordance with the Commission Regulation (EU) No 231/2012. The impurities of hydrogen peroxide are as defined in the CAR for Hydrogen

  • The Decomposition Kinetics of Peracetic Acid and Hydrogen Peroxide in Municipal Wastewaters
    Disinfection Forum No 10, October 2015 The Decomposition Kinetics of Peracetic Acid and Hydrogen Peroxide in Municipal Wastewaters INTRODUCTION Efficient control of microbial populations in municipal wastewater using peracetic acid (PAA) requires an understanding of the PAA decomposition kinetics. This knowledge is critical to ensure the proper dosing of PAA needed to achieve an adequate concentration within the contact time of the disinfection chamber. In addition, the impact of PAA on the environment, post-discharge into the receiving water body, also is dependent upon the longevity of the PAA in the environment, before decomposing to acetic acid, oxygen and water. As a result, the decomposition kinetics of PAA may have a significant impact on aquatic and environmental toxicity. PAA is not manufactured as a pure compound. The solution exists as an equilibrium mixture of PAA, hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, and water: ↔ + + Acetic Acid Hydrogen Peroxide Peracetic Acid Water PeroxyChem’s VigorOx® WWT II Wastewater Disinfection Technology contains 15% peracetic acid by weight and 23% hydrogen peroxide as delivered. Although hydrogen peroxide is present in the formulation, peracetic acid is considered to be the active component for disinfection1 in wastewater. There have been several published studies investigating the decomposition kinetics of PAA in different water matrices, including municipal wastewater2-7. Yuan7 states that PAA may be consumed in the following three competitive reactions: 1. Spontaneous decomposition 2 CH3CO3H à 2 CH3CO2H + O2 Eq (1) 2. Hydrolysis CH3CO3H + H2O à CH3CO2H + H2O2 Eq (2) 3. Transition metal catalyzed decomposition + CH3CO3H + M à CH3CO2H + O2 + other products Eq (3) At neutral pH’s, both peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide can be rapidly consumed by these reactions7 (hydrogen peroxide will decompose to water and oxygen via 2H2O2 à 2H2O + O2).

  • The Use of Peracetic Acid As a “Pre-Oxidant” for Drinking Water Applications
    Disinfection Forum No. 18, September 2017 The Use of Peracetic Acid as a “Pre-Oxidant” for Drinking Water Applications BACKGROUND Chlorination as a technology for drinking water disinfection has significantly reduced the incidence of human disease and is one of the most significant contributions to the improvement of human health over the past century. Chlorine’s ability to provide a stable residual concentration makes it suitable as a drinking water disinfectant at the point of use. However, natural organic matter in the raw water being treated and disinfected at the drinking water treatment plant may interact with the residual chlorine to form compounds classified as disinfection by-products (DBPs). The most commonly employed disinfectants are chlorine, chlorine dioxide and ozone – each of which can generate a variety of DBPs. Many DBPs have been identified as potential cancer-causing agents, and include trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs). Examples of THMS and HAAs include: chloroform, dibromochloromethane, bromoform, trichloracetic acid, monchloracetic acid and monobromoacetic acid. Peracetic acid (PAA) has gained momentum in the United States as a primary wastewater disinfection technology and alternative to chlorine. PAA has low residual toxicity, does not form harmful DBPs and has minimal impact on the environment. While the lack of a stable residual reduces its environmental impact post wastewater treatment, this characteristic decreases its values as a terminal drinking water disinfection technology – PAA residual at the point of use would be impractical to maintain. However, PAA may potentially be used in a disinfection treatment train approach as an early stage disinfection chemistry coupled with other methods such as membrane filtration, ozone and UV.

Hydrogen peroxide levels reached < LOD at on poultry and beef products. Although efficacy is well 29.1 minutes for chicken, with a 95% confidence interval documented, post-application decay of the antimicrobial of (27.4,31.0), and 12.3 minutes for beef, with a 95% peracetic acid (and the equilibrium by-product hydrogen confidence interval of (10.7,14.5). These results support peroxide) has not been documented. This was the purpose the use of up to 2000 ppm peracetic acid antimicrobial of the study. Chicken and beef samples were dipped in interventions as processing aids in meat and poultry solutions of > 2000 parts per million (ppm) peracetic operations, with no long-term residues. acid for 30 seconds and then set on a drying rack for set time periods. After times ranging from 0.5 to 30 INTRODUCTION minutes, samples were assayed for residual peracetic Current methods for processing of freshly slaughtered acid and hydrogen peroxide content.
