TRANSPARENCY IN CLEANING PRODUCTS:
A WIDENING LANDSCAPE
Douglas M. Troutman
Since the era of the seventies, requirements

The iSTREEM® model (https://www.istreem.org/) integrates the locations of municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with a hydrologic river network, providing a framework to assess environmental risk in a spatial context. The model has been widely applied for ecological risk
assessments of down-the-drain (DtD) chemicals in the U.S. To address growing challenges outside the U.S., the model was recently expanded to include Canada and Mexico by integrating…

The Ingredient Naming Translator was generated in order to clarify the various naming conventions that can apply to a single cleaning product ingredient, so that any user of a cleaning product can access information about the ingredient they are interested in.
Please note that the Translator was developed as a comprehensive cross reference of ingredient names encountered during the Cleaning Product Ingredient Safety Initiative. As such, the same…
