Abstract

Pollution from bromine and some of its related compounds is currently unregulated in soil from Russia and other countries,and tools for sound assessment of environmental impacts of bromine contamination are largely missing. Hence, assessingpotential implications for humans and ecosystems of bromine soil contamination is urgently needed, which requires the combi-nation of measured soil concentrations from environmental studies and quantified potential toxicity impacts. To address this need,we used data from an experimental study assessing bromine in soils (384 samples) of Tomsk oblast, Russia, starting frommeasured concentrations obtained by Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis in an earlier study. From these data, we calcu-lated the bromine mass in soils and used these as starting point to characterize related cumulative impacts on human health andecosystems in the Tomsk region, using a global scientific consensus model for screening-level comparative toxicity character-ization of chemical emissions. Results show that the combination of sampling methodology with toxicity characterizationtechniques presents a new approach to be used in environmental studies aimed at environmental assessment and analysis of aterritory. Our results indicate that it is important to account for substance-specific chemical reaction pathways and transferprocesses, as well as to consider region-specific environmental characteristics. Our approach will help complement environmen-tal assessment results with environmental sustainability elements, to consider potential tradeoffs in impacts, related to soilpollution, in support of improved emission and pollution reduction strategies.
