EU. Substances, Mixtures, Related Processes: Annex I & Art. 2, Dir 2004/37/EC (CMRD), as amended by Dir (EU) 2022/431, 16 March 2022

This list contains a non-exhaustive inventory of substances based on Art. 2 carcinogen, mutagen and reprotoxin (CMR) definitions and Annex I of the Carcinogens, Mutagens and Reprotoxins Directive (CMRD). Category 1A and 1B CMRs are derived from the CLP Regulation's Table 3 of Annex VI (1272/2008/EC). Employers are obligated to minimize worker exposure to these agents as far as possible, and must arrange for medical surveillance of workers exposed to these substances.

Gases (petroleum), benzene unit hydrotreater depentanizer overheads; Refinery gas [A complex combination produced by treating the feed from the benzene unit with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst followed by depentanizing. It consists primarily of hydrogen, ethane and propane with various small amounts of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C1 through C6. It may contain trace amounts of benzene.]
