TABLE 3.
VELMA 6PPD/6PPD-Q contaminant parameters and values.
| Parameter name | Type | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| directKocSpecification | Model | True | Set = True when the value of Koc is known for a contaminant (check the EPA CompTox dashboard). When Koc is unknown, set = False and use alternate VELMA parameters and methods described in McKane et al. (2022a) to estimate Koc |
| Koc | CompTox Parameter (6PPD) | 11,000 L/kg | Contaminant soil adsorption coefficient |
| setMolarSolubilityCoefficient | CompTox Parameter (6PPD) | 0.000158 mol/L | Molar solubility coefficient (mol/L) |
| setMolarMass | CompTox Parameter (6PPD-Q) | 268.404 g/mol | Molar mass (g/mol). Value is used to internally convert mol to g |
| setChemMaxDecay | CompTox Parameter (6PPD) | 0.2,207,475 | Maximum contaminant decay rate (fraction per day) |
| logKow | Hu et al., (Seattle, 2022a) Parameter (6PPD-Q) | 2.745 | Octanol-water partition coefficient (unitless) |
