Abstract
⺠Fugacity-type models are widely used but are inappropriate for non-volatile compounds. ⺠“Aquivalence” is an alternative to fugacity for modeling non-volatile chemicals. ⺠An aquivalence model is presented to include differing fates of interconverting species. ⺠Model is applied to pharmaceuticals ibuprofen, gemfibrozil, naproxen, triclosan. ⺠The model estimated that half-lives in water ranged from 2-147 d for the compounds.
