SECTION 12: Ecological information

12.1Toxicity

• Toxicity to fish: LC50 - Cyprinus carpio - > 1 000 mg/L - 96 h.
• Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: EC50 - Daphnia magna - > 1 000 mg/L - 48 h.
• Toxicity to algae: EC50 - Desmodesmus subspicatus (previous name: Scenedesmus subspicatus) - > 900 mg/L - 72 h.
• Toxicity to microorganisms: EC10 - Pseudomonas putida - 7 400 mg/L - 16 h.

12.2Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: Propylene carbonate, present at 100 mg/L, reached 79% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1). Propylene carbonate was biodegraded 80% in a manostatic respirometer screening study using seed from a wastewater treatment plant during a 10 day incubation period(2).

12.3Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for propylene carbonate(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.41(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

12.4Mobility in soil

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of propylene carbonate can be estimated to be 5(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that propylene carbonate is expected to have very high mobility in soil.

12.5Other adverse effects

no data available

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations

13.1Disposal 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.
