To support guidance documents and to compile REACH registration dossiers, information is required to demonstrate and document safe use of substances based on quantitative exposures and exposure reduction by Risk Management Measures (RMM). ECEL v3.0 is an online and open-source library containing occupational and environmental Risk Management Measures (RMM) that provides information on the effectiveness of control measures such as ventilation systems.
ECEL v3.0 integrates a broad spectrum of data and includes a wide range of RMM applications in different industrial settings. It was developed on the TNO DIAMONDS platform (https://diamonds.tno.nl/#ecel) and designed to fulfil the needs of registrant or downstream users. The library was developed to accommodate two separate modules: occupational and environment. The library has various functionalities to search for relevant information and to analyse and visualize RMM effectiveness. This online tool is a useful evidence-base that brings together important information of RMM in a user-friendly and multifunctional tool.
