From: Risk assessment and the adsorptive removal of some pesticides from synthetic wastewater: a review
Priority class | Criteria |
|---|---|
High priority | Pesticides or relevant metabolites present in produced drinking water |
Priority | Pesticides or relevant metabolites present in drinking water sources > 0.1 mg/L (for 90th % of all data > LOQ) Non-relevant metabolites present in drinking water sources > 1 mg/L (for 90th % of all data > LOQ |
Potential priority | Pesticides or relevant metabolites present drinking water sources > 0.1 <  0.1 mg/L (for 90th % of all data > LOQ) Non-relevant metabolites present in drinking water sources > 0.1 < 1 mg/L (for 90th % of all data > LOQ) |
Low priority | Not detected pesticides and or relevant metabolites and pesticides or relevant metabolites present drinking water sources do not exceed 0.01 mg/L |
