SECTION 12: Ecological information
Toxicity

Persistence and degradability
Resting cells of a Pseudomonas strain obtained by selective enrichment with 4-hydroxybenzoate as the sole carbon source, were able to biodegrade 2-t-butylphenol (oxygen uptake rate 26 nmol O2/min/mg protein)(1). 4-t-Butylphenol (at 30 mg/l) was not biodegraded over a 2 week period using an activated sludge inoculum; in river and sea water 4-t-butylphenol showed 11% biodegradation over 3 days(3). By analogy to 4-t-butylphenol, 2-t-butylphenol may be recalcitrant to biodegradation in the environment(SRC).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF value of 190 was calculated for 2-t-butylphenol(SRC), using an experimental log Kow of 3.31(1) and a recommended regression-derived equation(2). According to a recommended classification scheme(3), this BCF value suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms may be an important fate process(SRC). This compound was rapidly taken up by zebra fish with a steady state concentration reached within 5 hours; the clearance phase required 6 hours(3).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of 2-t-butylphenol is estimated as approximately 1500(SRC), using an experimental log Kow of 3.31(1) and a regression-derived equation(2,SRC). According to a recommended classification scheme(3), this Koc value suggests that 2-t-butylphenol has low mobility in soil(SRC).
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
