Sediment

Biodegradation tests under anaerobic conditions with fresh-water-sediment and pond-sediment

indicate primary degradation through reductive dechlorination to monochloroaniline (3- and

4-chloroaniline) only. The dechlorination started after 20 days of incubation in unacclimated

sediments. Approximately 90% of the 3,4-DCA was dechlorinated within the next 40 days. After

60 days 44% of the 3,4-DCA was present as 3-chloroaniline and 33% as 4-chloroaniline. Further

degradation of the monochloroanilines was not observed in these studies. The

monochloroanilines, however, appeared to be resistant to further dechlorination (Struijs and

Rogers, 1989). No information on mineralisation is available.
