Environmental Fate
There is limited data for the product ingredients. Mobility in soil is affected by the pH. There is no
evidence that components will biotranform in aquatic environments. Zinc is a stable element and
therefore does not degrade in the environment. Limited data suggests there is low potential for
bioaccumulation in aquatic environments. Zinc will not accumulate in fish tissues at higher
concentration exposures, but vegetation may accumulate higher levels of zinc if grown in contaminated
soils. Although data does not show acute toxicity, oil releases may cause long term environmental
effects. Industrial products should not be discharged to sewers or other water sources to prevent the
risks of long term adverse effects and environmental contamination.
SECTION 13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Disposal recommendations based on material as supplied. Disposal must be in accordance with current
applicable Local, State and Federal laws and regulations, and material characteristics at time of disposal.
DISPOSAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Zinc is regulated under the Clean Water Act. Do not discharge into sewers or waterways. May be
landfilled at an approved facility. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's
impact on air quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life;
and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.
REGULATORY DISPOSAL INFORMATION
Chemical waste generators must determine whether a discarded chemical is classified as a hazardous
waste. US EPA guidelines for the classification determination are listed in 40 CFR Parts 261.3.
Additionally, waste generators must consult state and local hazardous waste regulations to ensure
complete and accurate classification.
