General notes:
The product does not contain organically bounded halogens (AOX-free). The contained organic complexing agents reach a DOC-elimination grade of 80% (corresponding to No. 406 of Annex "Analytic and measuring methods") and with this meet the tightened demands of Annex 49 of the revised Direction on liqid waste. Do not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage system. Rinse off of bigger amounts into drains or the aquatic environment may lead to increased pH-values. A high pH-value harms aquatic organisms. In the dilution of the use-level the pH-value is considerably reduced, so that after the use of the product the aqueous waste, emptied into drains, is only low water-dangerous.
Results of PBT and vPvB assessment
- PBT: Not applicable.
- vPvB: Not applicable.
Other adverse effects
