  • 5. POTENTIAL for HUMAN EXPOSURE 5.1 OVERVIEW White
    WHITE PHOSPHORUS 157 5. POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE 5.1 OVERVIEW White phosphorus can enter the environment from its production, use, accidental spills during loading and unloading for shipment, and accidental spills during transport. Hazardous wastes sites containing white phosphorus can also be a source of phosphorus in the environment. White phosphorus has been found in at least 77 of the 1,430 current or former EPA National Priorities List (NPL) hazardous waste sites (HazDat 1996). However, the number of sites evaluated for white phosphorus is not known. The frequency of these sites within the United States can be seen in Figure 5-l. The persistence of elemental phosphorus in the air is very short due to oxidation to phosphorus oxides and ultimately to phosphorus acids. However, the particulate phosphorus aerosol may be coated with a protective oxide layer that may prevent further oxidation and extend the lifetime of particulate phosphorus in air. Both wet and dry deposition remove unreacted elemental phosphorus and the degradation products from the air. Similarly, elemental phosphorus oxidizes and hydrolyzes in water and in soil. A small amount of elemental phosphorus is lost from soil and water by volatilization. Phosphorus is used as a fumigant in the storage of grain. Because of ease of application, pellets of aluminum or magnesium phosphide are commonly used (Garry et al. 1993). Phosphine, a highly toxic gas, is generated from phosphide. The rate of formation of phosphine (permissible exposure limit [PEL], 0.4 mg/m3) is dependent on the ambient temperature and humidity. Its release is rapid, and it is extremely fatal to the unprotected person (Garry et al.

Fones *a Metaldehyde is the active ingredient in most slug pellets used to protect crops. This molluscicide is consid- ered an emerging pollutant and is frequently detected in surface water bodies above the EU statutory drinking water limit of 0.1 μgL−1 for a pesticide. This presents a challenge for providers of drinking water. Received 4th February 2017, Understanding the sources, transport and environmental fate of this compound is therefore important. This Accepted 10th April 2017 critical review discusses these aspects including monitoring and analytical techniques used for the detec- tion of metaldehyde in environmental matrices. Novel techniques used for the removal of metaldehyde DOI: 10.1039/c7ew00039a from drinking water are presented together with potential catchment management strategies and initiatives rsc.li/es-water useful for the mitigation of this molluscicide in the environment. Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. Water impact Metaldehyde is a potent molluscicide and is applied to land as baited-pellets. Due to its physicochemical properties, metaldehyde runs off readily from fields and enters surface water bodies where often it can be present at drinking water capitation sites at elevated concentrations.

  • Chemistry – Writing Equations
    Support Information 1, The following elements are diatomic; H2, O2, N2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2, and At2. 2, Rules for naming compounds: If there are two elements in a compound the non-metal will end in –ide. e.g. CaCl2– calcium chloride, K2O – potassium oxide, Rb3P – rubidium phosphide If the compound contains a metal, non-metal and oxygen the non-metal will end in –ate. If the metal has variable ions, the valency of the ion present must be shown in brackets e.g. Fe2O3 iron (III) oxide and FeO iron (II) oxide 3, Examples of acids (all are soluble): Strong Acids Weak Acids Hydrochloric acid (HCl) Ethanoic Acid (CH3COOH) Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) Propanoic Acid (CH3CH2COOH) Nitric acid (HNO3) Carbonic Acid (H2CO3) Phosphoric acid (H3PO4) 4, Examples of soluble bases (alkalis): Strong Bases Weak Bases Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) Ammonia (NH3) Potassium hydroxide (KOH) Potassium hydrogen carbonate Note: Any base containing an alkali metal (Group 1) will be soluble. 5, Examples of types of insoluble bases: Metal oxides e.g. copper oxide (CuO) Metal carbonates e.g. calcium carbonate (CaCO3) Metal hydroxides e.g. magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) 6, Examples of types of salts (formed when an acid reacts with a metal or a base) Hydrochloric acid forms – chlorides ethanoic acid forms – ethanoates Sulfuric acid forms - sulfates propanoic acid forms - propanoates Nitric acid forms – nitrates Phosphoric acid forms - phosphates Exception: carbonic acid formed when carbon dioxide reacts with water – forms carbonates and hydrogen carbonates when reacting with a base

  • Used at Rocky Flats
    . TASK 1 REPORT (Rl) IDENTIFICATION OF CHEMICALS AND RADIONUCLIDES USED AT ROCKY FLATS I PROJECT BACKGROUND ChemRisk is conducting a Rocky Flats Toxicologic Review and Dose Reconstruction study for The Colorado Department of Health. The two year study will be completed by the fall of 1992. The ChemRisk study is composed of twelve tasks that represent the first phase of an independent investigation of off-site health risks associated with the operation of the Rocky Flats nuclear weapons plant northwest of Denver. The first eight tasks address the collection of historic information on operations and releases and a detailed dose reconstruction analysis. Tasks 9 through 12 address the compilation of information and communication of the results of the study. Task 1 will involve the creation of an inventory of chemicals and radionuclides that have been present at Rocky Flats. Using this inventory, chemicals and radionuclides of concern will be selected under Task 2, based on such factors as the relative toxicity of the materials, quantities used, how the materials might have been released into the environment, and the likelihood for transport of the materials off-site. An historical activities profile of the plant will be constructed under Task 3. Tasks 4, 5, and 6 will address the identification of where in the facility activities took place, how much of the materials of concern were released to the environment, and where these materials went after the releases. Task 7 addresses historic land-use in the vicinity of the plant and the location of off-site populations potentially affected by releases from Rocky Flats.
