MERCK· Remark:

Forms corrosive mixtures with water even if diluted.toxic for algae

· Remark: neutralization possible

· General notes:Water hazard class 1 (Self-assessment): slightly hazardous for waterDo not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage system.Must not reach bodies of water or drainage ditch undiluted or unneutralized.Rinse off of bigger amounts into drains or the aquatic environment may lead to decreased pH-values. A low pH-value harmsaquatic organisms. In the dilution of the use-level the pH-value is considerably increased, so that after the use of the productthe aqueous waste, emptied into drains, is only low water-dangerous.

13 Disposal considerations

· Product:· Recommendation:

Must not be disposed of together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system.Hand over to hazardous waste disposers.
