Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference
Endpoint:
biodegradation in water: inherent biodegradability
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Study period:
June to Sept 1997
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method C.9 (Biodegradation: Zahn-Wellens Test)
GLP compliance:
no
Inoculum or test system:
sewage, industrial (adaptation not specified)
Initial conc.:
ca. 100 other: ppm
Based on:
other: total N
Parameter followed for biodegradation estimation:
other: removal of total N
Parameter:
other: total N
Value:
ca. 30
Remarks on result:
other: Flow through
Details on results:
Elimination wasn't constant. Known hydrolysis is suspected to mediate with the result.
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Interpretation of results:
not inherently biodegradable
Conclusions:
Under test conditons an elemination rate of around 30% were observed. This elemination was unsteady.
Executive summary:

A mixture of NHDT and CDHT (Chloro-dihydroxy-Triazine) was tested under flow through conditions.

about 100 ppm were fed and elimination of about 30% were observed.

A distinction between biodgradation and hydrolysis is not possible.

Description of key information

about 100 ppm were fed and elimination of about 30% were observed.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
inherently biodegradable, not fulfilling specific criteria
