· General notes:
Water hazard class 2 (German Regulation) (Self-assessment): hazardous for water
Do not allow product to reach ground water, water course or sewage system.
Must not reach sewage water or drainage ditch undiluted or unneutralised.
Danger to drinking water if even small quantities leak into the ground.
Rinse off of bigger amounts into drains or the aquatic environment may lead to decreased pH-values. A low pH-
value harms aquatic organisms. In the dilution of the use-level the pH-value is considerably increased, so that after
the use of the product the aqueous waste, emptied into drains, is only low water-dangerous.

· PBT: Not applicable.
· vPvB: Not applicable.
· 12.6 Other adverse effects No further relevant information available.
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
· 13.1 Waste treatment methods
· Recommendation
Must not be disposed together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system.
Must be specially treated adhering to official regulations.
After prior treatment product has to be landfilled or incinerated adhering to the regulations pertaining to the
disposal of especially hazardous waste.
