- Executive summary:
The biodegradation of the test substance under aerobic conditions was determined in an OECD Guideline 307 test. Radiolabelled test substance was added to four different types of soil, and incubated for 120 days under aerobic conditions. NaOH traps were used to determine the amount of CO2 evolved, and ethylene glycol traps were used to measure the amount of organic volatiles produced. Measurements were taken on days 0, 2, 7, 14, 30, 62, and 120. The amount of CO2 evolved at the end of the 120 days ranged from 25.6 -37.2%. Bound residues ranged from 12.8 -21.8%. No volatile orangics were detected. The test substance degraded moderately in soil in aerobic conditions.

- Conclusions:
- The test substance degraded slowly under aerobic conditions, and even more slowly under anaerobic conditions.
- Executive summary:
The anaerobic biodegradation potential of the test substance was determined in an OECD Guideline 307 study. The test substance was radiolabelled and added to four different soils. For the first 28 days, the soils were incubated at 20 degrees C under aerobic conditions. The soils were then flooded, and the soils incubated under anaerobic conditions for an additional 120 days. The redox potential was measured to ensure anaerobic conditions. NaOH traps were used to collect evolved CO2, and ethylene glycol traps were used to collect any organic volatiles produced. Soils were sampled at days 0 and 28 pre-flooding, and days 7, 14, 30, 62, and 120 post-flooding. HPLC and LSC was used to determine the amount biodegraded. The percent degradation ranged from 10.2% to 22.7% at day 120 post-flood. No volatile organics were detected. The bound residues in the soil at day 120 post-flood were 4.3 -9.1%. The major degradation product was CO2 with 5.1 -10.7% evolved. The half-life ranged from 1114 to 6.32E9 days. The test substance degraded slowly under aerobic conditions, and even more slowly under anaerobic conditions.

- Half-life in soil:
- 378 d
- at the temperature of:
- 12 °C
Additional information
Anaerobic and aerobic biodegradation simulation studies in soil were perfomed using radiolabelled C10 dialkylbenzene, a major category of HAB which comprises 20 -70% of the composition. The testing was perfomed in four different soils with an exposure period of 120 days (in the anaerobic testing, there was a 28 day aerobic exposure period prior to the 120 day anaerobic exposure period). The initial concentration was 5.17 uCi/vessel for the anaerobic test, and 4.55 uCi/vessel for the aerobic test. Half-lives for the substance in the aerobic testing ranged from 23 to 178 days at 20 C. When the results were adjusted for 12 C using the Arrhenius equation, the half-lives ranged from 49 to 378 days. Anaerobic degradation was significantly slower with half-lives ranging from 1114 to 4.6E+08 days and 2365 to 8.6E+08 days at 20 and 12 C, respectively.
