Controlled Substances
DANGER!
Many of the following controlled substances are toxic; for example vinyl chloride is highly toxic, flam-
mable and carcinogenic and could be evaporated off the matrix and passed to the airflow. Therefore it
is important to note that any supply water coming from complex waste water, which may contain these
contaminates should therefore be carefully risk assessed by a water treatment specialist.
