    Appendix H EPA Hazardous Waste Law This Appendix is intended to give you background information on hazardous waste laws and how they apply to you. For most U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requirements that apply to the University, the Safety Department maintains compliance through internal inspections, record keeping and proper disposal. In Wisconsin, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has adopted the EPA regulations, consequently EPA and DNR regulations are nearly identical. EPA defines This Appendix only deals with "hazardous waste" as defined by the EPA. hazardous waste as Legally, EPA defines hazardous waste as certain hazardous chemical waste. This hazardous chemical Appendix does not address other types of regulated laboratory wastes, such as waste; radioactive, infectious, biological, radioactive or sharps. Chapter 8 descibes disposal procedures infectious and biohazardous waste for animals. Chapter 9 describes disposal procedures for sharps and other waste that are regulated by can puncture tissue. Chapter 11 discusses Radiation and the Radiation Safety for other agencies. Radiation Workers provides guidelines for the disposal of radioactive waste. Procedures for medical waste are written by the UW Hospital Safety Officer. The Office of Biological Safety can provide guidance for the disposal of infectious and biological waste. EPA regulations focus on industrial waste streams. As a result, many laboratory chemical wastes are not regulated by EPA as hazardous chemical waste. However, many unregulated chemical wastes do merit special handling and disposal If a waste can be procedures. Thus, Chapter 7 and Appendix A of this Guide recommend disposal defined as: procedures for many unregulated wastes as if they were EPA hazardous waste.

Thesis presented for the Degree of Ph.D. INTRODUCTION. The fact that yellow phosphorus is able to precipitate many heavy metals from solutions of their Salts has been known for a considerable period. If a stick of phosphorus is placed in a solution of silver nitrate or of copper sulphate, the phosphorus gradually becomes covered with a deposit of the metal and acids of phosphorus are found in the solution. The action may be represented as follows: P + M X + H_0 > M + H X + P acids, and continues as long as any free phosphorus remains. The apparent similarity between this action and the displacement of a metal from solutions of its salts by another metal is very marked and has been commented on by more than one investigator. It has even been suggested that phosphorus, which is usually regarded as a typical non-metallic element, does in this case act in the same way as a real metal. There are, ■ indeed, other reactions of phosphorus which point to it being an element of an 'amphoteric1 nature, capable of furnishing both negative and positive ions. It was noticed, however, that in many cases, the action between phosphorus and the metallic Salt solution/ solution was more complicated,and other products such as phosphides of the metal were found.

  • Hydrolysis and Atmospheric Oxidation Reactions of Perfluorinated Carboxylic Acid Precursors
    Hydrolysis and Atmospheric Oxidation Reactions of Perfluorinated Carboxylic Acid Precursors by Derek A. Jackson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Derek A. Jackson 2013 Hydrolysis and Atmospheric Oxidation Reactions of Perfluorinated Carboxylic Acid Precursors Derek Andrew Jackson Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This dissertation explores a number of different environmentally relevant reactions that lead to the production of perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs), a family of environmental pollutants that does not undergo any further degradation pathways. The compound perfluoro-2-methyl-3-pentanone (PFMP) is a new fire fighting fluid developed by 3M that is designed as a Halon replacement. The environment fate of PFMP with regards to direct photolysis, abiotic hydrolysis and hydration was determined using a combination of laboratory experiments and computational modeling. PFMP was found to undergo direct photolysis giving a lifetime of 4-14 days depending on latitude and time of year. Offline samples confirmed PFCA products and a mechanism was proposed. Polyfluorinated amides (PFAMs) are a class of chemicals produced as byproducts of polyfluorinated sulfonamide synthesis via electrochemical fluorination (ECF). Using synthesized standards of four model compounds, PFAMs were detected and quantified in a variety of legacy commercial materials synthesized by ECF. PFAMs were hypothesized to undergo biological hydrolysis reactions, suggesting their importance as historical PFOA precursors. ii The PFAMs were also investigated with regards to their environmental fate upon atmospheric oxidation. Using a smog chamber, the kinetics and degradation mechanisms of N- ethylperfluorobutyramide (EtFBA) were elucidated.

  • An Interstellar Synthesis of Phosphorus Oxoacids
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-06415-7 OPEN An interstellar synthesis of phosphorus oxoacids Andrew M. Turner1,2, Alexandre Bergantini 1,2, Matthew J.

Kaiser 1,2 Phosphorus signifies an essential element in molecular biology, yet given the limited solubility of phosphates on early Earth, alternative sources like meteoritic phosphides have been proposed to incorporate phosphorus into biomolecules under prebiotic terrestrial conditions. Here, we report on a previously overlooked source of prebiotic phosphorus from interstellar 1234567890():,; phosphine (PH3) that produces key phosphorus oxoacids—phosphoric acid (H3PO4), phos- phonic acid (H3PO3), and pyrophosphoric acid (H4P2O7)—in interstellar analog ices exposed to ionizing radiation at temperatures as low as 5 K. Since the processed material of molecular clouds eventually enters circumstellar disks and is partially incorporated into planetesimals like proto Earth, an understanding of the facile synthesis of oxoacids is essential to untangle the origin of water-soluble prebiotic phosphorus compounds and how they might have been incorporated into organisms not only on Earth, but potentially in our universe as well. 1 Department of Chemistry, University of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu, HI 96822, USA. 2 W.M.

    EFSA Journal 2013;11(6):3245 SCIENTIFIC OPINION Scientific Opinion on the safety evaluation of the active substances, iron, polyethyleneglycol, disodium pyrophosphate, monosodium phosphate and sodium chloride for use in food contact materials1 EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids (CEF)2, 3 European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Parma, Italy ABSTRACT This scientific opinion of EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes, Flavourings and Processing Aids deals with the safety evaluation of an iron based oxygen absorber, comprising polyethyleneglycol, disodium pyrophosphate, monosodium phosphate and sodium chloride. This mixture is incorporated in polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) articles intended to be in contact with foodstuffs for hot fill/pasteurisation and/or long term storage at room temperature. For dried and fatty foods, direct contact with the materials is envisaged whereas other food types will be separated from the active material by a layer that does not contain the active components. All the substances constituting the oxygen absorber system have been evaluated and authorised for use as plastic food contact materials, as food additives or as food supplements. Based on migration results, the specific migration limits for iron, polyethyleneglycol, pyrophosphoric acid salts, phosphoric acid salts and sodium chloride, and the tolerable intake of phosphorus (phosphate) are not expected to be exceeded when the oxygen absorber system is used under the intended conditions of use, notably

Chemistry is related with all the fields of our life, e.g., food, fuels, textiles, dyes, drugs, disinfectants, perfumes, building materials, paints, inks, fertilizers, insecticide, pesticide, soap, detergents, etc. Matter : Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. For example, book, pen, pencil, water, air, all living beings etc. are composed of matter. Accuracy – Freedom from mistake or error : The quality or state of being accurate or the ability to work or perform without making mistakes. Accuracy = Mean value – True Value Precision : The quality, condition, or fact of being exact and accurate or the closeness of the set of values obtained from identical measurements of quantity. Precision = Individual Value – Arithmetic Mean Value Significant Figures : The digits in a properly recorded measurement or the total number of figures in a number including the last digit whose value is uncertain are called significant figures, e.g., 180.00 has five significant figures. Laws of Chemical Combination : Elements combine to form compounds in accordance with the following five basic laws, called the laws of chemical combinations : (i) Law of Conservation of Mass : Mass can neither be created nor destroyed. (ii) Law of Definite Proportions Compositions : A given compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by weight. (iii) Law of Multiple Proportions : If two elements can combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the other element, are in the ratio of small whole numbers.
