Disposal considerations
Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Recovery for recycling is not possible.
Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: Alkaline hydrolysis to palmitic acid and geraniol may remove
the hazardous properties. (A632)
Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Disposal at a controlled landfill site is possible. (A650)
Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Recommended method of destruction. Incinerate at a suitable
facility using waste gas treatment. (A661)
Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: Disposal after adequate dilution to a sewage treatment plant
is possible. (A641)
Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: The substance will enter the public domain as a component of
fragrance mixtures which will be in turn incorporated into
detergents/softeners.
Recovery for recycling is not feasible.
Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.
Public at large - Possibility of destruction - others: Products containing the substance can be disposed of as
household waste.
