Regulation of Food Packaging in Europe and the USA
A wide variety of plastics is used in food-contact applications and it is important that such plastics do not affect the food with which they come into contact. Given the obvious importance of producing safe and wholesome food, with adequate shelf life, it is not surprising that the food industry is heavily regulated. There is considerable public concern about the safety of food packaging, and one issue is the potential migration of compounding ingredients, monomers or additives from plastics into food. In general, food diffuses into plastic packaging, enhancing the migration of unreacted monomers and potentially mobile additives from the plastic into the food.
The objective of food packaging legislation is to protect the consumer by controlling the contamination of food by chemicals transferred from the packaging. Standard migration tests are available based on prescribed food simulants; these tests include overall migration testing and specific migration tests (for individual chemical species). The gradual development of lower detection limits for analytical methods has shown that many substances previously not considered as indirect food additives do actually migrate into food.
Food packaging regulations are constantly under revision, and differ significantly between Europe and the USA – even between countries within the EU, although there is a strong harmonising influence from the Council of Europe and the European Commission. The regulation of food-contact materials in the EU is currently in a state of development, with various aspects still subject to national provisions until the European Commission has completed the harmonisation process. The US regulatory system is complex, with various approval and certification schemes.
This Rapra Review Report provides a clearly written summary of the current legislation surrounding the use of plastics in contact with food. It will be of interest to those working to formulate food-contact plastics, food processors and testing laboratories, packaging manufacturers and users, together with organisations working to ensure safe conditions for food production.
This review is accompanied by around 400 abstracts from papers and books in the Rapra Polymer Library database, to facilitate further reading on this subject. A subject index and a company index are included.

The analysis is conducted based on the available data and contains information on the types (and frequently amounts) of solvents used and potential problems and solutions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 14 contains information on the methods of analysis of solvents and materials containing solvents. The chapter is divided into two sections containing standard and special methods of solvent analysis. This chapter is followed by a discussion of residual solvents left in final products.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe environmental impact of solvents, such as their fate and movement in the water, soil and air, fate-based management of solvent containing wastes, and ecotoxicological effects are discussed in chapter 16. The chapter also contains discussion of solvents impact on tropospheric air pollution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe next two chapters are devoted to toxicology of solvents and regulations aiming to keep solvents toxicity under control. The analysis of concentration of solvents in more than 15 industries, specific issues related to paint industry, and characteristics of environment in automotive collision repair shops are followed by the thorough discussion of regulations in the USA and Europe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSolvent toxicology chapters were written by professors and scientists from major centers who study the effects of solvents on various aspects of human health, immediate reaction to solvent poisoning, persistence of symptoms of solvent exposure, and effects of solvents on various parts of the human organism. This is a unique collection of observations which should be frequently consulted by solvent users and agencies which are responsible for the protection of people in the industrial environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe following chapters show some examples of solvent substitution by safer materials. Here the emphasis is placed on supercritical solvents, ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, and agriculture-based products, such as ethyl lactate. Discussion of solvent recycling, removal, and degradation includes absorptive solvent recovery, comparison of results of recovery and incineration, and application of solar photocatalytic oxidation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is concluded with evaluation of methods of natural attenuation of various solvents in soils and modern methods of cleaning contaminated soils.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive two volume book has no equal in depth and breadth to any other publication available today Also, Solvent database on CD-ROM is available which contains data on close to 2000 solvents. The data organized in sections such as General, Physical \u0026amp; Chemical Properties, Health \u0026amp; Safety, Environmental, and Use, contain all available and required data to use solvent efficiently and safely.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n13 SOLVENT USE IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIES\u003cbr\u003e13.1 Adhesives and sealants\u003cbr\u003eGeorge Wypych, ChemTec Laboratories, Toronto, Canada\u003cbr\u003e13.2 Aerospace\u003cbr\u003e13.3 Asphalt compounding\u003cbr\u003e13.4 Biotechnology\u003cbr\u003e13.4.1 Organic solvents in microbial production processes\u003cbr\u003eMichiaki Matsumoto, Sonja Isken, Jan A.

The analysis is conducted based on available data and contains information on the types (and frequently amounts) of solvents used and potential problems and solutions. This followed by a discussion of residual solvents left in final products.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe third edition contains the most recent findings and trends in the solvent application. This volume together with Vol. 1 Properties; Databook of Green Solvents; and Databook of Solvents contains the most comprehensive, and up to date information ever published on solvents. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe volume begins with a discussion of solvent used in over 30 industries, which are the main consumers of solvents. The analysis is conducted based on the available data and contains information on the types (and frequently amounts) of solvents used and potential problems and solutions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 14 contains information on the methods of analysis of solvents and materials containing solvents. The chapter is divided into two sections containing standard and special methods of solvent analysis. This chapter is followed by a discussion of residual solvents left in final products.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe environmental impact of solvents, such as their fate and movement in the water, soil and air, fate-based management of solvent containing wastes, and ecotoxicological effects are discussed in chapter 16. The chapter also contains discussion of solvents impact on tropospheric air pollution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe next two chapters are devoted to toxicology of solvents and regulations aiming to keep solvents toxicity under control. The analysis of concentration of solvents in more than 15 industries, specific issues related to paint industry, and characteristics of environment in automotive collision repair shops are followed by the thorough discussion of regulations in the USA and Europe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSolvent toxicology chapters were written by professors and scientists from major centers who study the effects of solvents on various aspects of human health, immediate reaction to solvent poisoning, persistence of symptoms of solvent exposure, and effects of solvents on various parts of the human organism. This is a unique collection of observations which should be frequently consulted by solvent users and agencies which are responsible for the protection of people in the industrial environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe following chapters show some examples of solvent substitution by safer materials. Here the emphasis is placed on supercritical solvents, ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, and agriculture-based products, such as ethyl lactate. Discussion of solvent recycling, removal, and degradation includes absorptive solvent recovery, comparison of results of recovery and incineration, and application of solar photocatalytic oxidation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is concluded with evaluation of methods of natural attenuation of various solvents in soils and modern methods of cleaning contaminated soils.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive two volume book has no equal in depth and breadth to any other publication available today Also, Solvent database on CD-ROM is available which contains data on close to 2000 solvents. The data organized in sections such as General, Physical \u0026amp; Chemical Properties, Health \u0026amp; Safety, Environmental, and Use, contain all available and required data to use solvent efficiently and safely.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n13 SOLVENT USE IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIES\u003cbr\u003e13.1 Adhesives and sealants\u003cbr\u003eGeorge Wypych, ChemTec Laboratories, Toronto, Canada\u003cbr\u003e13.2 Aerospace\u003cbr\u003e13.3 Asphalt compounding\u003cbr\u003e13.4 Biotechnology\u003cbr\u003e13.4.1 Organic solvents in microbial production processes\u003cbr\u003eMichiaki Matsumoto, Sonja Isken, Jan A.
