To evaluate and compare the risk of substitution, we have done practical application study with the illustration of flame retardants based on the risk expressed as a product of damage factor (DF) and daily intake. DF is calculated based on DALY, which is one of the outcomes of the “Global Burden of Disease” conducted by WHO, and NOAEL. We adopted this method featuring flame retardant in TV enclosures, and verified that substituting Triphenylphosphate (TPP) for Decabromodiphenyloxide (DecaBDE) can reduce the risk significantly. This method is different from conventional risk evaluation method in the way that; it is able to considerate severities of the case of risk emergence, and to calculate risk values separately according to application.
