Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In accordance with REACH Annex XI, the soil simulation testing (required in section 9.2.1.3) does not need to be conducted as the substance activated carbon does not contain any hydrogen available for dehydrogenation; thus there is no energy gain by enzymatic dehydrogenation, so further biodegradation of this molecule will not occur.
Executive summary:

In accordance with REACH Annex XI, the soil simulation testing (required in section 9.2.1.3) does not need to be conducted as the substance activated carbon does not contain any hydrogen available for dehydrogenation; thus there is no energy gain by enzymatic dehydrogenation, so further biodegradation of this molecule will not occur.
