Ecological information 12.1 Toxicity Aquatic toxicity: No further relevant information available Persistence and degradability No further relevant information available Bioaccumulative potential No further relevant information available Mobility in soil No further relevant information available. Additional ecological information: General notes: Water hazard class 1 (German Regulation) (Assessment by list): slightly hazardous for water. Do not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage system. Rinse off of bigger amounts into drains or the aquatic environment may lead to decreased phvalues. A low ph-value harms aquatic organisms. In the dilution of the use-level the ph-value is considerably increased, so that after the use of the product the aqueous waste, emptied into drains, is only low waterdangerous Results of PBT and vpvb assessment PBT: vpvb: 12.6 Other adverse effects No further relevant information available 13. Disposal considerations 13.1 Waste treatment methods Recommendation Hand over to hazardous waste disposers. Must not be disposed of together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system. Uncleaned packagings: Recommendation: Disposal must be made according to official regulations. Recommended cleansing agent: Water, if necessary with cleansing agents. 14.
