This program was based on the following publication:
Mackay, D. 2001. "Multimedia Environmental Models: The Fugacity Approach - Second Edition", Lewis Publishers, Boca Raton.
The required input data are:
Chemical Properties:
chemical name
molar mass
data temperature
reaction half-life estimates for
- air
- aerosols
- water
- suspended particles
- aquatic biota
- soil
- sediment
Type 1 chemicals
- water solubility
- vapour pressure
- log Kow
- melting point
Type 2 and 3 chemicals
- partition coefficients
Environmental Properties:
volumes for all media
densities for all media
organic carbon content (soil, sediment, and suspended particles only)
fish lipid content
advective flow residence times for air (including aerosols), and water (including suspended particles and aquatic biota)
advective flow residence time for sediment burial
Emissions:
chemical input rate
inflowing concentrations in air and water
Model Output:
partition coefficients (Type 1)
Z values
fugacity of the system
D values
reaction and advection loss rates
residence times or persistences (overall, reaction, and advection)
concentrations and amounts for each compartment
a summary diagram and charts
Minimum system requirements are an IBM-compatible PC running Windows 98 or XP.
This model will not run under Windows NT or 2000.
This program is only available in compiled form. A "readme.txt" file with more detailed technical information is included in the zipped file.
The Level II Model Version 2.17, released September 1999 continues to be available.
For non-Windows users the BASIC, evaluative, Level I, II and III fugacity models are available.
