12.2 Persistence and degradability
Mineralization of 1-nitropyrene in aerobic sediment/water microcosms was slow; only 0.24, 0.61, and 0.76% mineralization was reported after 8 weeks incubation in microcosms constructed with sediment and water collected from an oil-contaminated drainage pond, a saltwater pool, and from Redfish Bay, respectively, sites proximal to the Harbor Island oil tank farm near Port Aransas, TX(1). Under anaerobic conditions, no carbon dioxide was evolved from any of the microcosms over an 8-week period; however, 1-aminopyrene was reported as a metabolite in this experiment(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 4,100 was calculated for 1-nitropyrene(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 5.06(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is very high(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soil
The Koc of 1-nitropyrene is estimated as 13,500(SRC), using a log Kow of 5.06(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 1-nitropyrene is expected to be immobile in soil.
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.
