Freisetung ohne BrandExcerpt from ERG Guide 155 [Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Flammable / Water-Sensitive)]:
EntsorgungsverfahrenGenerators of waste (equal to or greater than 100 kg/mo) containing this contaminant, EPA hazardous waste number U156, must conform with USEPA regulations in storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste.Methyl chloroformate is a waste chemical stream constituent which may be subjected to ultimate disposal by controlled incineration. Incineration, preferably after mixing with another combustible fuelcare must be exercised to assure complete combustion to prevent the formation of phosgene. An acid scrubber is necessary to remove the halo acids produced.A potential candidate for liquid injection incineration at a temperature range of 650 to 1,600 °C and a residence time of 0.1 to 2 seconds. A potential candidate for rotary kiln incineration at a temperature range of 820 to 1,600 °C and residence times of seconds for liquids and gases, and hours for solids. A potential candidate for fluidized bed incineration at a temperature range of 450 to 980 °C and residence times of seconds for liquids and gases, and longer for solids.
Verschüttetes entsorgenEvacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in dry sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations. Do NOT wash away into sewer.
UmweltverhaltenTERRESTRIAL FATE: If methyl chloroformate is released to soil, it should rapidly hydrolyze if the soil is moist, based upon the relatively rapid hydrolysis observed in aqueous solution(1,SRC). Since it rapidly hydrolyzes, biodegradation, adsorption, and volatilization from moist soil are not expected to be significant processes, although no data specifically regarding the fate of methyl chloroformate in soil were located(SRC). Based upon a measured vapor pressure of 108.5 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), volatilization from dry near-surface soil or other surfaces may be a significant process(SRC).AQUATIC FATE: If methyl chloroformate is released to water, it will be expected to hydrolyze relatively rapidly with a calculated half-life of 34.8 min at 19.6 °C(1,SRC). Since it relatively rapidly hydrolyzes, bioconcentration, volatilization, biodegradation, and adsorption to sediment and suspended solids are not expected to be significant processes(SRC).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: If methyl chloroformate is released to the atmosphere, it will be expected to exist almost entirely in the vapor phase(1) based upon a measured vapor pressure of 108.5 mm Hg at 25 °C(2). It will be susceptible to photooxidation via vapor phase reaction with photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals. An atmospheric half-life of 74 days at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm has been calculated for this process based upon an estimated rate constant(3,SRC).

ICSC Environmental DataThe substance is toxic to aquatic organisms.
EPA IRIS InformationMethyl chlorocarbonate
Soil Adsorption/MobilitySince methyl chloroformate rapidly hydrolyzes in water(1) and presumably in moist soil(SRC), adsorption to soil is not expected to be a significant process(SRC).
Human Toxicity Excerpts... HIGHLY CORROSIVE AND IRRITANT TO SKIN AND EYES ... .... IT IS HIGHLY IRRITANT AND CORROSIVE BY INGESTION, INHALATION, OR EYE ... CONTACT. CONCN OF 10 PPM (5.28 MG/CU M) HAVE CAUSED LACRIMATION AND A CONCN OF 190 PPM (1 MG/L) HAS BEEN LETHAL IN 10 MIN.HUMANS EXPOSED TO METHYL CHLOROFORMATE HAVE EXPERIENCED RESPIRATORY TRACT AND EYE IRRITATION, EVEN PERSISTING AFTER CESSATION OF EXPOSURE. SKIN SENSITIZATION MAY OCCUR, ALTHOUGH EMPLOYEES IN CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING PLANT SHOWED NO HEALTH EFFECTS NOR POSITIVE LAB FINDINGS FROM BLOOD AND LIVER FUNCTION TESTS.A CHEM PRODUCTION WORKER WAS EXPOSED TO METHYL CHLOROFORMATE, 2-3 INHALATIONS. BRIEF INITIAL IRRITATION, BUT MASSIVE SYMPTOMS OCCURRED AFTER 36 HR: HEAVY COUGH, DYSPNEA & LIGHT LIP CYANOSIS. IMPROVEMENT AND RELAPSES OCCURRED DURING NEXT 9 DAYS, WITH EVENTUAL FULL RECOVERY.COMPARATIVELY, IRRITANT POTENCY MAY BE ABOUT FIVE TIMES THAT OF CHLORINE AND ONE-HALF THAT OF PHOSGENE.
Artificial Pollution SourcesMethyl chloroformate may be released to the environment as a result of its manufacture and use as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the preparation of insecticides(1). It also has been used as a military poison gas in World War I(2).
Environmental BiodegradationNo data were located concerning the biodegradation of methyl chloroformate either in natural systems or in laboratory studies(SRC). Since methyl chloroformate hydrolyzes with a calculated half-life of 34.8 min at 19.6 °C(1,SRC), biodegradation probably will not be a significant process in the environment(SRC).
Environmental BioconcentrationSince methyl chloroformate hydrolyzes in water relatively rapidly(1), bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is not expected to be a significant process(SRC).
Volatilization from Water/SoilSince methyl chloroformate hydrolyzes in water relatively rapidly(1), it is not possible to estimate the half-life for volatilization from aqueous media(SRC). Based upon a measured vapor pressure of 108.5 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), volatilization of methyl chloroformate from surfaces and near-surface dry soil may be significant processes(SRC). In a comparison of relative volatility from wet and dry soil, the evaporation rate of methyl chloroformate was estimated to be approx 3.5 times slower than that of carbon disulfide(3). Since carbon disulfide is known to evaporate quickly from soil, evaporation of methyl chloroformate from soil may be a significant process(SRC). The low-boiling chloroformic esters are highly volatile(4)therefore, evaporation from dry surfaces will occur(SRC).
RCRA-AnforderungenU156As stipulated in 40 CFR 261.33, when methyl chlorocarbonate, as a commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate or an off-specification commercial chemical product or a manufacturing chemical intermediate, becomes a waste, it must be managed according to Federal and/or State hazardous waste regulations. Also defined as a hazardous waste is any residue, contaminated soil, water, or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill, into water or on dry land, of this waste. Generators of small quantities of this waste may qualify for partial exclusion from hazardous waste regulations (40 CFR 261.5).
