S1. Emission Model Formulations and Input Data
Schematization
For the spatially distributed modelling of fate and transport, we use the schematization of Europe provided by the E-Hype hydrology model. This schematization consists of some 35,000 sub-catchments (SC), irregularly shaped parts of river catchments, which form the smallest calculation unit for the hydrology model. The average surface area of the SCs is 247 km2. The average spatial resolution is therefore approximately √ (247 ) ≈16 km. For emission calculations, every SC is allocated to the country with the largest overlap with the SC area.
Domains
The emissions are defined for the pan-European domain, consisting of 42 countries (for REACH registered chemicals) or for country domains (for pharmaceuticals and pesticides), and downscaled (“disaggregated”) to the SC level, distributed over time and relocated.
Locators
For the downscaling, we use “locator” variables (Y), spatially variable quantities that explain emissions or that are correlated to emissions. We determine the value of Y for all sub-catchments YSC. These values are simply added for all SC’s in a domain to obtain the total YTot. The emissions per
SC ESC (M.T-1) are then calculated from the total emissions per domain ETot (M.T-1): ESC=ETot ×Y SC
Y Tot.
We use the following locators:
For REACH registered chemicals and pharmaceuticals: weighed population count per SC (population data obtained from LandScan (2006)™ High Resolution global Population Data Set) 1, weight factor is discussed below);
land used for agriculture (following land use definition from hydrology model).
For REACH-registered chemicals and pharmaceuticals, we assumed that a higher standard of living implies a higher use of chemicals. We used the World Bank per capita gross domestic product based on purchasing-power-parity (GDP-PPP or GDP) to quantify standard of living (https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.PP.CD). In addition, we accounted for a relative reduction of the losses with increasing standard of living due to increasing environmental awareness. To quantify this effect, we used effort towards management of domestic wastewater as a model factor. We quantified the share of wastewater collected, the share of wastewater treated and the share of wastewater treated with secondary and tertiary processes as a function of the GDP-PPP on a country-by-country basis (Table 1.2). The result is shown in Figure 1.1(a).
1 While projecting the population data on the E-Hype grid, we identified missing values due to interpolation problems in about 100 cases. We replaced these missing values by using the country population density multiplied with the surface area. Values of 0 have been replace by 1 to avoid division by zero problems.

Extrapolation of country data:
For pharmaceuticals and pesticides, the locator was also used to extrapolate use data for substances and countries without data. For pharmaceuticals, we neglected very low sales data in the UK or Sweden (< 0.15 mg/cap/year), which are unlikely to be representative for substances found in detectable quantities in surface water outside the UK and Sweden.
Receptors
Emission estimates per domain and per substance discriminated 5 receptors:
1. lower atmosphere layer 2
2. surface water (sw)3. waste water (ww)4. soil (ss)5. production losses3
The resulting emission for receptor i are denoted as ESC,i (M.T-1).
Impermeable surfaces pathway
A part of the emissions to soil is taking place on impermeable surfaces. We assume this proportional to the fraction of paved surfaces fpaved in the hydrology model schematisation. Impermeable surfaces aggregate emissions, until they are degraded or washed off by a runoff event. k (T-1) equals a removal rate due to biodegradation, photolysis, etc., currently equal to 0 (no removal). The fraction to runoff frunoff is defined as follows. If the daily precipitation is below a set lower threshold (2 mm/day), frunoff = 0. If the daily precipitation is above a set upper threshold (5 mm/day), frunoff = 1. In between the two thresholds, frunoff is determined by linear interpolation. This results in a time dependent washed off fraction controlled by previous build-up of pollutants and rain events. This

release is allocated to surface water in case of separated sewer systems, and to collected waste water in case of combined sewer systems.
Unice et al. (2019) discuss how the linear wash-off formula used here relates to commonly used empirical exponential wash-off approaches used for storm water modelling. They conclude that the approach is comparable to the use of w wash-off coefficient of 0.55 mm-1 , which is at the high end of the range encountered in such models.
Wastewater pathway
Emissions to waste water will either be collected and treated for population connected to sewer systems or be released to the environment. Per SC, the share of untreated, primary treated, secondary treated and “other” treatment (more than secondary) is specified. Per substance we use a characterisation of the treatment. In particular:
fSTPAir fraction of substance in influent emitted to air fSTPEff fraction of substance in influent emitted via effluent fSTPSld fraction of substance in influent emitted via sludge fSTPRem fraction of substance in influent removed
The present implementation is based on a simulated representation of the activated sludge treatment, as available in the SimpleTreat model (Struijs, 2014). It is assumed that the treatment process proceeds at a constant and homogeneous operating temperature, which is by good approximation independent of the ambient temperature. For this reason, the above fractions are assumed independent of space and time. The fraction emitted via effluents is discharged to the surface water. The fraction emitted to air is allocated to the lower atmosphere layers. The fraction emitted to sludge is reduced with the fraction of sludge incinerated and stored in landfills and allocated to soil. Waste water not collected via sewer systems is distributed over surface water (fraction HSC) and soil (fraction 1-HSC), without treatment.
Disaggregation in time
For pesticides used in agriculture the emissions are not constant in time. A feature has been introduced to distribute these emissions over time in a consistent, mass-conserving way. This is based on clusters of landuse and crops combinations defined in the underlying hydrology model:
agriculture areas with seasonal autumn-sown crops; agriculture areas with seasonal spring-sown crops; agriculture areas with perennial crops.
For the seasonal crops we define two control periods of three months (spring -summer for spring-sown crops; autumn-winter for winter-sown crops), for perennial crops 4 control periods. Within these control periods, a period of one week of actual application is randomly selected for each SC. The total emission is controlled to be consistent. The result of this is expressed as a time and space dependent application factor FA.

S2. Fate and transport model formulations and input data
General
For chemical fate and transport we use a dynamic mass balance model that calculates contaminant concentrations in a spatially and temporally resolved way. The model has been coupled with the Delft3D-WAQ open source modelling framework (http://oss.deltares.nl/) and is called STREAM-EU (Spatially and Temporally Resolved Exposure Assessment Model for European basins; Lindim et al., 2016; 2017).
STREAM-EU distinguishes environmental compartments for surface water, sediment, soil/groundwater, air and snow/ice, with their own mass balance. An environmental compartment is composed of four different phases (water, inert solid, particulate organic carbon (POC) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC)). A compartment is considered well-mixed and homogeneous with respect to the phases and contaminant distribution. The contaminant can be present in any of the phases, except the inert solid phase. The distribution between compartments and phases is expressed by the fugacity concept (Mackay, 2001). Processes for precipitation, dissolution and ionization of the simulated substances have been implemented. Partitioning between sediments and water for ionizing species is estimated using the distribution ratio instead of the octanol-water partition coefficient. Within all compartments the contaminants undergo degradation. Within compartments with an atmosphere interface, surface-to-air vapour-phase transport is included by applying the two-film theory (Mackay et al., 2001). It is assumed that the ionized forms do not volatilize from solution. Within all compartments representing surface waters, a loss term for the particulate phase representing storage in aquatic sediments is defined. Advective carrier fluxes of water and particles are defined between the compartments and carry the chemical through the model domain.
Mass balance equation
This section is identical to previously published formulations copied from Lindim et al. (2016; 2017), supplemented or modified as appropriate.
The mass balance equation for compartment a reads:
d (V a Zbulka(T ) f a(T ))
dt=Ea + ∑
b ∈ Ja
(Dba(T ) f b(T )) − ∑b ∈ Ja
Dab(T ) f a(T )−ka(T ) V a Zbulka(T ) f a(T )
where V is the compartment volume (m3), Z is the fugacity capacity (mol m-3Pa-1), f is the fugacity (Pa), T is the absolute temperature (K), t is time (s), E are the emissions (mol s-1), D is a transport variable (mol Pa-1 s-1) and k is the reaction rate of the compound (s-1). All quantities are time dependent. The second and third terms on the right-hand side represent advective terms to and from compartments b sharing a contact surface with compartment a (b∈J a). The contaminant concentration C (mol m-3) for compartment a is given by:Ca(t) =Za(T).fa(t)

The fugacity capacities need to be estimated in order to calculate the concentrations. They depend not only on the temperature but also on the nature of the phases in the compartment. The different fugacity capacities are given by Mackay (2001):
Zair (T )= 1R T air
; Zwater (T )= 1R T water Kaw (T )
= 1H
; ZPOC i(T )=Zwater (T )K POC
i(T )
;
ZDOCi(T )=Zwater(T ) KDOC i
(T )
for air, water, particulate organic carbon (POC) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) respectively, where R is the gas constant (8.314 Pa m3 mol-1 K-1), H is the Henry´s law constant (Pa m3 mol-1), Kaw is the dimensionless partition coefficient between air and water, KPOCi is the dimensionless partition coefficient between POC and water in a compartment of type i and KDOCi is the dimensionless partition coefficient between DOC and water in a compartment of type i. POC and DOC partition coefficients are compartment specific and consequently so are the fugacity capacities. KPOC and KDOC are estimated as:
K POC=x1φoc Kow∧K DOC=x2φoc Kow
where Kow is the octanol-water partition coefficient, φoc is the dimensionless average organic carbon content, x1 and x2 are empirical sorptive capacities of organic carbon. x1 and x2
depend on the compound and on the organic carbon type and lie in the range [0.14-0.9] (Mackay, 2001). x1 and x2 in the model are compartment specific.
Bulk fugacity capacities for each compartment are constructed to be used in the mass balance equation with the contributions of all the phases j present in that compartment. For a generic compartment a:
Zbulka=∑
jZ j Vf j
where Vf is the volume fraction of the phase.
Temperature corrections for the partition coefficients, K(T), use the Van´t Hoff relationship:
K (T )=K (T0) . exp (− ΔHR
( 1T 1
− 1T 0
))
where T0 is the absolute reference temperature and ΔH (J mol-1) is the enthalpy of phase change. Temperature corrections for the reaction rate, k(T), follow the exponential dependency:
k (T )=k (T 0 ) ϑ(T−T o)
with θ = 1.08.

Two adjacent compartments sharing a contact area between them, can exchange mass. This includes advective contaminant mass transfer with water fluxes and sediment fluxes. The transport variable D in the mass balance for the advective mass transfer is given by:

where u and d are adjacent upstream and downstream compartments, Q the volumetric carrier flux (m3 s-1), Vfcarrier the volume fraction of the carrier and j is a phase.
Surface-to-air vapour-phase transport (volatilization) is modelled using the two-resistance mass transfer coefficient approach (Mackay, 2001), for substances with a vapour pressure exceeding 10-8 (Pa). The diffusive contributions for the water-air interface (de), the water film (dw) and air film (da) are calculated using empirical relationships from Mackay and Yeun (1983):
da=36w s (6.1+0.63ws )0.5; de=0.065da; dw=1.7510−4da
where ws is wind speed (m s-1). The associated transport variable D is calculated as follows:
D=A ( 1de Za
+ 1dw Zw )
−1
where A is the cell surface and Za and Zw are the air and water fugacity capacity.
Ionizing substances
Ionization in freshwater is implemented using the Henderson-Hasselbach relationship to compute the dissociated and non-dissociated fractions at each time step and in each cell. For monoprotic substances:
f ndiss=(1+10 ( pH− pKa1) )−1 for monoprotic acids
f ndiss=(1+10 ( pKa1− pH ) )−1 for monoprotic bases
f diss=1−f ndiss
where fndiss is the non-dissociated fraction and fdiss is the dissociated fraction. For diprotic substances:
f ndiss=(1+10 ( pH− pKa1)+10(2pH− pKa1−pKa2 ) )−1 for diprotic acids
f diss1=(1+10( pKa1− pH )+10( pH− pKa2 ) )−1 for diprotic acids

f diss2=1−f ndiss−f diss1
where fdiss1 and fdiss2 are mono-ionized and bi-ionized fractions respectively. For amphoteric species:
f ndiss=(1+10 (pH−pKa1' )+10 (pKa1− pH ) )−1
fdiss+¿=f ndiss(1+10 ( pKa 1− pH ))−1¿

1=f diss+¿+f ndiss +f diss−¿ ¿¿
where pKa1’ is for the base form and pKa1 is for the acid form, and fdiss+ and fdiss- are the cationic and anionic fractions respectively. It is assumed that ionised species do not volatilize from solution. OC-water partitioning for ionizing substances is calculated using the distribution ratio (DR) instead of Kow:
DR= f ndiss K ow
Precipitation and dissolution
Precipitation and dissolution are evaluated at each time step and in each cell using the substances aqueous solubility and the local concentrations in the aqueous and solid states. The Van’t Hoff equation was used to represent temperature dependency on the water solubility.
Numerical solution
Delft3D-WAQ discretizes the advection-diffusion equation by a time-implicit first order finite volumes method (Deltares, 2016). The resulting set of equations is solved by the Generalised Minimal Residual method (Saad and Schultz, 1986).

Notes
The logarithm of the air octanol partition coefficient (koa0 (-)) is calculated as kow0 - kaw0, the difference between the logarithms of the octanol to water and air to water partition coefficients.
Only the enthalpy of phase change air-water is available from modelling. The other two phase change enthalpies are estimated (Mackay, 2001):
o enthalpy of phase change octanol-water = 0;o enthalpy of phase change octanol-air = - enthalpy of phase change air-water.
Various authors report that model predicted half-lives can only be used in fate modelling with significant uncertainty (Greskowiak et al., 2017). As there is no alternative to the use of model-predicted substance degradability in this study, we considered two alternative models providing results for a large range of substances: (a) a semi-quantitative read-across model to estimate the overall degradation half-lives in air, water, soil, and sediment including temperature dependence by Kühne et al. (2007), and (b) the CATALOGIC 301C biodegradation model that predicts percentage biodegradation under OECD 301C test conditions (Dimitrov et al., 2011). The Joint Danube Survey 3 field data allowed us to conclude that the Kühne et al. estimated degradation rates were overestimating field values, while this was not the case for the CATALOGIC 301C estimated biodegradation rates. Therefore, current results are based on the CATALOGIC 301C biodegradation model.

S4. Impact of values below LoD/LoQ on average concentrations
For the assessment of overall model performance, we tested how many values unaffected by LoD/LoQ (“un-flagged” values) are necessary to still approach the average value with a reasonable accuracy (within a factor of two). We did that by studying the results for selected chemicals from different substance groups with no or as few as possible flagged values. By applying hypothetical limit values that replace all values below the limit, by counting the number of replacements and by recalculating the average using the limit value instead of the replaced value, we established a relation between the percentage of un-flagged values and the error in the calculated mean value. Examples are shown for the SCARCE dataset in Figure 4.2.
If all analyses are unaffected by LoD/LoQ (share of unflagged values 100%), the real average is calculated. In the SCARCE example shown in Figure 4.2, the average is not affected a lot, until the fraction of unflagged values reaches values below 0.2. The first two substances in Figure 4.2, tris(butoxyethyl) phosphate and gemfibrozil, have 100% and 96% of unaffected values respectively. For those two substances, the approach outlined above is consistent. For the other four substances shown, all pesticides, however, there are always values affected by LoD/LoQ. The share of unaffected values is 73% for chlorpyriphos, 68% for diazinon, 45% for terbutylazine and 42% for carbendazim respectively. For these pesticides, the validity of the approach is less obvious. The results however, are robust, so we presume the conclusion valid over the whole range of substances.
In the cases shown in Figure 4.2 from the Spanish Basins Case Study, the fraction of un-flagged analyses sufficient to estimate the mean value with an error less than a factor of 2 equals 7%, 7%, 9%, 9%, 13% and 17% respectively (mean value 10%). For the RIWA dataset from the Rhine Case Study, we obtained values of 1%, 2%, 3%, 5% and 8% (mean value of 4%) for the chemicals lindane, carbendazim, carbamazepine, diclofenac and acesulfame respectively. For the JDS3 dataset from the Danube Case Study, we obtained values of 2%, 8% and 9% (mean value of 6%) for the chemicals tris(2-chloroethyl)phosphate (TCEP), terbutylazine and tramadol respectively.
Based on these results we chose to use data for all chemicals with a share of un-flagged values larger than 10%.

S5. Overview of error per chemical and per Case Study Area
Model error is defined as the logarithm of the quotient of the simulated average concentration and the observed average concentration. Substances groups: (1) pesticides, (2) pharmaceuticals, (3) REACH chemicals (non-volatile), (4) REACH chemicals (volatile, with boiling point > 431K). Substances in group (4) have been omitted from the results included in the main text, and the validity of the model has been limited to substances with a boiling point exceeding 431K.

S7. Application of the NORMAN prioritization framework
The ranking of substances within (sets of associated) water bodies is based on their contribution to
the mixture effect. To this end, we use the toxic units metric, defined as TU = Cw/L, where Cw is the
freely dissolved concentration and L is the effect level. Substance ranking requires a definition of the
collection of sites to be considered, and the elimination of the space and time dimensions. For the
latter, we used elements of the NORMAN (substances) prioritization framework (Dulio and von der
Ohe, 2013). Time variability is eliminated by choosing the P99 of the time dependent TU, say TU99.
The spatial aggregation method of the TU99 at all sites first quantifies the “Extent of Exceedance”
(EoE) by determining the spatial P95 of the TU99 per site. The EoE is initially a number between 0 and
infinity. It is converted to a number in the range [0,1] according to the NORMAN method (Table 7.6).
Next, it defines the “Frequency of Exceedance” (FoE) as the fraction of sites considered where TU99
exceeds 1. The FoE is a number in the range [0,1]. A final spatially aggregated score is obtained by
adding EoE and FoE to obtain a number in the range [0,2]. The calculation steps and an example are
collected in Table 7.6. For the effect level L, we used the so-called NORMAN lowest PNECs (NORMAN
PNEC list 2018 v7.xlsx, received from Jaroslav Slobodnik on 24 April 2018)5th percentile of the chronic
NOEC SSD, which is a metric also used for deriving environmental quality standards. For a lognormal
SSD with a median value µ (50% of affected species) and a standard deviation σ = 0.7, L = 0.07057 µ.
The results from the substance prioritization based on predicted environmental concentrations (PEC)
are collected in Table 7.7. To support the discussion in the main text, 5 scores are collected: the
score for the original PEC and 4 scores for 1 and 2 orders of under- and overestimation respectively.

S8. Accuracy of pharmaceuticals emissions
We investigated the inaccuracy from our assumption of a constant excretion factor of 12% for all
substances. Out of 105 validation cases for pharmaceuticals, Lindim et al. (2016a) report substance-
specific excretion rates for 50 cases. For these 50 cases, the error is -0.14 (mean) ±1.06 (SD). With
variable excretion rates the error would have been -0.08±1.22. Oldenkamp et al. (2018) collected
substance-specific excretion rates for 45 of our validation cases. The error for these 45 cases is 0.11
(mean) ±0.89 (SD). With variable excretion rates the error would have been 0.48±1.05. As using

substance-specific excretion rates does not reduce the scatter of the error across substances, the
use of constant excretion rates is not likely a key factor explaining the model error. We noticed that
there is poor correlation between excretion rates collected by Lindim et al. and Oldenkamp et al.
respectively for the same chemical. This suggests that the accuracy of substance-specific excretion
rates collected from literature is limited.
We also investigated the accuracy of the fate of pharmaceuticals in WWTPs simulated with
SimpleTreat, as errors amount to one order or more (Lautz et al., 2017). Out of the 105 validation
cases, we could compare the simulated fraction to effluent to observed values (UNESCO-IHP; 2017)
for 65 cases. The error for these 65 cases is 0.04 (mean) ±0.99 (SD). Using the observed fraction to
effluents, the error would have been 0.07±0.92. As using observed fate in WWTPs does not reduce
the scatter of the error across substances, the use of simulated fate in WWTPs is not likely a key
factor explaining the model error.
