12.2 Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: The biodegradation half-life of imazalil in loam soil under aerobic conditions was 166 days with 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl-1H-imidazole identified as a degradation product(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 170 was calculated for imazalil(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 3.82(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soil
Soil adsorption coefficient Kd values of 182, 209, and 68 were reported in clay loam, sandy loam, and sandy soil, respectively(1). The Koc of imazalil was shown to range from 2,081 to 6,918 in 8 soils (average Koc 4,324)(2). The mobility of C-14 labeled (at 2-ethyl carbon) imazalil was also evaluated in a soil column leaching study(2). Imazalil was found to be immobile in loam and sandy soils. The majority of imazalil remained in the top soil zone (95.7% of the applied was detected in the 0-2.5 cm zone for the loam soil column whereas 84.5% was detected in the same zone for the sand soil column). According to a classification scheme(3), these Koc values suggests that imazalil is expected to have slight to no mobility in soil(SRC).
12.5 Other adverse effects
no data available
13.Disposal considerations
13.1 Disposal methods
Product
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Contaminated packaging
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
