Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: Anthranilic acid (10 ppm) degraded 100% in 2 days using a 1% suspension of Niagara silt loam at 25 deg C(1). Biodegradation of anthranilic acid was studied using 7 different tests, (inoculum conc, incubation time, chemical conc) result; closed bottle (1 drop sewage/L, 30 days, 2 ppm) 90% BODT; OECD screening (0.05% sewage effluent, 19 days, 20 ppm carbon) 100% DOC; Sturm CO2-evolution (1% sewage, 28 days, 10 ppm carbon) 71% CO2 and 100% DOC removal; French AFNOR (sewage, 42 days, 40 ppm carbon) 93% DOC removal; Japanese MITI (30 mg activated sludge/L, 14 days, 50 ppm carbon) 70% BODT; Zahn-Wellens (1 g activated sludge/L, 14 days, 400 ppm carbon) 97% DOC after 1 day; OECD coupled units (2500 mg sewage/L, 12 ppm carbon) 103%DOC removal(2). Warburg activated sludge screening tests gave results of 96% BODT in 0.6 days after 20 days of acclimation(3), 17% BODT after 8 days(4) and 50% BODT in 0.5 days after 23 hours acclimation(5). Anthranilic acid degraded 81% in a 5 day BOD test using sewage at 20 deg C(6). Anthranilic acid degraded 97.5% by COD removal in 5 days after 20 days acclimation of activated sludge(7). A 5 day BOD test gave 62.7% biodegradation of anthranilic acid in Songhua River water collected from Jilin Province, China(8). Anthranilic acid degraded 104 and 127% in 8 weeks after a 1 week lag time in a 10% sludge(9).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for anthranilic acid(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.21(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of anthranilic acid is estimated as 110(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.21(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that anthranilic acid is expected to have high mobility in soil. The pKa of anthranilic acid is 2.14(4), indicating that this compound will primarily exist in anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).
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.
