Abstract
Several IT tools have been developed to facilitate the evaluation of complex inorganic materials, with the aim to support the assessor at specific steps of the assessment, such as the Metals Classification Tool (MeClas) for hazard identification and classification, or MEASE and specific environmental release categories (SPERCs) that generate exposure estimates. In addition, several tools have been made available by the scientific, regulatory, and industry communities to consider metal specificities such as bioavailability in the environment (Biomet, PNEC.Pro, M-BAT) and fate (TICKET-UWM). All these tools, easily accessible, are based on the current knowledge and are regularly updated to take into account new metal science and user-friendliness. The chapter provides a general overview of these tools as well as their principal features.
