Quantities used: as required

2.1 Environmental exposure control

Product characteristics: See above Frequency and duration of use: Continual. 365 days/year Local conditions and measures to reduce or limit releases and emissions into the air and releases directly into the ground: Environmental risk management measures should be aimed at avoiding the release of the undiluted and/or prepared for use product into the environment (soil, sewage, surface water, public sewerage). Keep the product in properly closed, original containers. Do not store in open or unlabelled containers. Store in a cool, dry place away from heat sources. Use according to good working practices and avoid direct releases of the product into the environment. Avoid release into the environment in accordance with regulatory requirements. Common practices vary between sites. Regarding the sodium hypochlorite component: no releases are expected into the environment as the substance is subject to a rapid reduction when in contact with organic and inorganic species. In the worst case scenario, the free chlorine available in the effluent is measured as total residual chlorine (TRC) and this is expected to be lower than 1.0 E-13 mg/L. Regarding the sodium hydroxide component: Main measures are aimed at avoiding discharge into the public sewer or surface waters, where such discharges are likely to cause significant changes to the pH. Regular pH control is required for open water discharge. In general, discharge should occur so as to minimize changes to the pH of the receiving surface water. Generally speaking, most aquatic organisms are able to tolerate pH values in the range of 6-9, as also described in the OECO standard test for aquatic organisms. Conditions and measures relating to the external treatment of waste for disposal: External treatment and the disposal of waste (product residues, empty containers) must satisfy applicable local and/or national regulations.

General risk management measures: Assessment of qualitative exposure performed for human health: Link to the assessment of qualitative exposure for substances classified as R34 (Causes burns) and R37 (Respiratory system irritant) or H314 (Causes severe burns and serious eye damage) and H335 (May cause irritation to the respiratory tract). In the absence of dose-response data relating to corrosivity (R34 or H314) and respiratory tract irritation (R37 or H335), in accordance with R8 (R.8.6), a qualitative approach to assessing exposure to corrosive substances has been taken. Exposure must, therefore, be minimized using appropriate general risk management measures shown below (ECHA technical guide, Part E, Table E.3-1). When these risk management measures and operating conditions are applied, the risk of exposure to a substance which is corrosive and an irritant to the respiratory tract is controlled.

3. Estimation of exposure and reference to the source

3.1 Environment

Regarding the sodium hypochlorite component: Qualitative assessment peformed for the sodium hypochlorite component

Water and sediment compartment Hypochlorite emissions in the environment from production processes are minimal. Generally speaking, free available chlorine (FAC) in effluents is measured as total residual chlorine (TRC), but it is not possible to tell how much this TRC value in the final effluent is related to the hypochlorite or to other oxidising compounds present in the same effluent. TRC is the sum of the free available chlorine (HOCI, FAC) and of the combined available chlorine (RH2Cl, CAC). For sites reporting levels of TRC in the effluent as well as information on the dilution factor for the receiving surface water, initial local experimental PEC values ranging from < 0.000006 to 0.07 mg/L. TRC values have, however, not been considered applicable: following further immediate reaction after contact with oxidising matter in the receiving water, any free available chlorine will be eliminated after discharge, with decay rates which increase with the concentrations discharged. Therefore, the measured TRC values are not directly applicable for evaluating exposure to hypochlorite. Instead of using modelled measured TRC values, FAC values were used to determine predicted environmental concentrations (PEC). Virtually no hypochlorous/hypochlorite acid (below 10-35 mg/L as FAC, Vandepitte and Schowanek, 2007) will remain in the sewer beyond an hour after the disposal of a bottle of pure bleach in the sewer. Hypochlorous/hypochlorite acid volatilization is not expected during the treatment of waste water. The FAC concentration at the end of the sewers was reasonably estimated as being negligible, with PEC values in the worst case scenario of 1.0 E-13 mg/L (Vandepitte and Schowanek, 2007). (NB: these estimated concentrations involve a wide margin of uncertainty, but in this case they are significantly lower than aquatic PNEC). Although the rate of decay of the hypochlorite in river and marine environments is lower than in waste water treatment plants, FAC PEC values for direct emissions are not considered to differ significantly from the worst case scenario estimate. Since hypochlorite is quickly destroyed by contact with organic and inorganic material, no sediment exposure is expected.

Terrestrial compartment (including secondary poisoning) Possible routes of exposure to HOCI are through contaminated sludge or through the application of chlorinated water. As can be calculated using Vandepitte and Schowanek’s 1997 model (for more information, please refer to the European sodium hypochlorite risk assessment), it seems clear that the concentrations of available HOCI in domestic waste are completely eliminated in the sewage system before it enters the activated sludge system. Furthermore, HOCI is a highly soluble molecule that is difficult to absorb into activated sludge. Consequently, contamination of the soil by way of discharges containing sludge contaminated by HOCI can be excluded. Exposure through secondary poisoning with hypochlorite is not considered at all likely since it is rapidly destroyed on contact with organic and inorganic species.

Atmospheric compartment Hypochlorite solutions are not volatile; there is not, therefore, a significant potential for dispersion into the air. In addition, methods for determining the effects of chemicals on species resulting from atmospheric contamination have not been completely developed, save for mammalian inhalation studies. The methodology used for assessing the danger (and, as a consequence, risk characterization) of chemicals in water and the soil cannot be applied to the atmosphere (ECHA CSA Part B, 2008). Therefore, it can be summarized as follows: Predicted environmental concentrations (PEC) According to the previous qualitative assessment, the concentration of exposure in the worst case scenario, used as PEC, in a waste water treatment plant is 1.0 E-13 mg/L. PECs for other compartments are not applicable since sodium hypochlorite is rapidly destroyed on contact with organic and inorganic material and, moreover, is not volatile. Indirect human exposure through the environment (by mouth) Hypochlorite does not reach the environment through the waste water treatment system since the rapid transformation of applied hypochlorite (such as free available chlorine, FAC) in the waste water system prevents humans from being exposed to this substance. Even in recreational areas near chlorinated waste water discharge points, the potential for exposure to hypochlorite derived from the treatment of waste water is negligible in that emissions of unreacted hypochlorite are non-existent. Due to sodium hypochlorite’s physical-chemical properties, in all probability no indirect exposure occurs through the human food chain. Therefore, in all probability, there is no indirect exposure to sodium hypochlorite through the environment.

SANIFOAM


Rev.8 of 11/07/18 # 4 / 4

Regarding the sodium hydroxide component: The effects on the aquatic environment and an assessment of its risks are related to the effects on the organisms/ecosystems due to pH change caused by a release of OH- ions, since the toxicity of the Na+ ion is considered negligible compared to the (potential) effect of the pH change. High water solubility and low vapour pressure indicate that sodium hydroxide will be found predominantly in water. If risk management procedures are implemented, there will be no exposure to activated sludge from waste water treatment plants and receiving bodies of water. Sediments have not been considered as they are not deemed relevant for sodium hydroxide. Where it is released into the aquatic environment, the adsorption of sodium hydroxide in sediments is negligible. Given the low vapour pressure, significant emissions of sodium hydroxide into the air are not anticipated. Where it is released into the air in aerosol form (in water), sodium hydroxide is rapidly neutralized through its reaction with carbon dioxide (or other acidic gases). Significant emissions into the ground are not anticipated. The application of sludge on agricultural soils is not significant, given that sodium hydroxide is not absorbed by particulate matter in waste water treatment plants. Where it is released on to the soil, the adsorption into the ground is negligible. According to the soil buffer capacity, the OH- ions are neutralized in interstitial water or an increase in pH is recorded. Sodium hydroxide does not bioaccumulate.

Regarding the sodium hydroxide component: Sodium hydroxide is a corrosive substance. During the handling of corrosive substances and mixtures, dermal contact occurs only occasionally and repeated daily exposure to dermal contact is not considered significant. Consequently, exposure to sodium hydroxide by dermal contact has not been quantified. Sodium hydroxide is not considered available for systemic absorption into the body under normal conditions of handling and use; therefore, no systemic effects due to exposure by inhalation or dermal contact are expected. Based on measurements of sodium hydroxide taken in the chemical industry of paper, aluminium and textiles and the taking of risk management measures for the exposure control of workers, exposure by inhalation is lower than the DNEL of 1 mg/m3. In addition to measured data, ECETOC TRA has been used to estimate inhalation data (see table below), with the assumption that there is no forced ventilation (LEV – Local Exhaust Ventilation) and respiratory protective equipment (RPE), unless otherwise specified. Exposure duration was selected as > 4 hours/day and professional use was selected (where applicable), as the worst case scenario. Only the PROCs considered relevant for the scenario in question with their relevant results are reported in the table.

Route of exposure Conc. Sodium hydroxide

4. Downstream user guide for assessing whether s/he is operating within the limits established by the exposure scenario The guide is based on assumed operating conditions which may not apply across all sites. Scaling is, therefore, considered necessary in order to define adequate risk management measures which are specific to the site. If scaling reveals a condition of unsafe use (i.e. RCR > 1), additional risk management measures or a site-specific chemical safety assessment will be necessary.
