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.

Other Information
The reaction with nitrosating agents can result in the formation of carcinogenic N-nitrosodiethylamine (DFG 2008).This substance is usually commercially available as a solution.Decomposes slowly in water or acidic solutions forming carbon disulfide and amines.See ICSC 0022.Other CAS numbers: 20624-25-3 (trihydrate).Use of alcoholic beverages enhances the harmful effect.
