Abstract
The dye Disperse Yellow 42 (DY 42, C.I. No. 10338) was tested in an outdoor pond to compare its measured fate with modeled data. Models used were Mackay 4 and Exams 2. All important parameters (e.g., physicochemical properties and biological and chemical reaction rates) which determine the fate of the chemical were introduced into the models. There was good agreement between the calculated and measured behavior of DY 42. Mackay 4 simulated the fate of the substance slightly better than Exams 2 as shown by statistics.
