Экологическая судьба

Soil. Degrades in soil yielding hydroxy metabolites and dealkylation of the side chains (Hartley and Kidd, 1987).
Photolytic. Pelizzetti et al. (1990) studied the aqueous photocatalytic degradation of prometon and other s-triazines (ppb level) using simulated sunlight (λ >340 nm) and titanium dioxide as a photocatalyst. Prometon rapidly degraded forming cyanuric acid, nitrates, the intermediate tentatively identified as 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxy-N,N′-bis(1-methylethyl)-1,3,5-triazine and other intermediate compounds similar to those found for atrazine. Mineralization of cyanuric acid to carbon dioxide was not observed (Pelizzetti et al., 1990).

Несовместимости

Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explo- sions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides. UV causes decomposition.

Утилизация отходов

Dissolve or mix the material with a combustible solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber. All federal, state, and local environmental regulations must be observed. In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recom- mendations for the disposal of pesticides and pesticide containers. Containers must be disposed of properly by following package label directions or by contacting your local or federal environmental control agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office.
