The major hazards encountered in the use and handling of 3,5-dichlorophenol stem from its toxicologic properties. Toxic effects from exposure to this crystalline substance may occur from dermal contact or inhalation and include burning of the skin, headache, dizziness, cyanosis, and death from cardiac or respiratory failure. Personnel handling 3,5-dichlorophenol should wear protective clothing, gloves, boots, goggles, and an approved dust respirator. In emergency situations, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and structural firefighter's protective clothing. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing at the site. In case of contact with 3,5-dichlorophenol, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes, and wash affected areas of the skin with soap and water. 3,5-Dichlorophenol does not ignite easily, but it can burn, producing irritating and poisonous gases. For small fires involving 3,5-dichlorophenol, extinguish with dry chemical, CO2, water spray, or standard foam, and for large fires, use water spray, fog, or standard foam. Dike runoff from fire control water if necessary to keep it from entering water sources or sewers. 3,5-Dichlorophenol may be shipped via air, rail, road, or water in containers bearing the label, "Keep away from food." Small spills of 3,5-dichlorophenol solution may be taken up with sand or other noncombustible absorbent and placed into containers for later disposal. Large spills should be contained in pits, or other holding areas that are sealed with an impermeable flexible membrane liner. Solids should be covered with a plastic sheet. Spills of 3,5-dichlorophenol in water may be trapped at the bottom with sand bag barriers, activated charcoal applied, and trapped material removed with suction hoses, mechanical dredges, or lifts. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance.

Fires involving this material can be controlled with a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher. (NTP, 1992)

Use water spray, foam, powder, carbon dioxide.

Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.

Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap. Refer for medical attention .

Rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible). Refer for medical attention.

Rinse mouth. Rest. Refer for medical attention .

EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.

Land Spill: Dig a pit, pond, lagoon, or holding area /SRP: If time permits, pits, ponds, lagoons, soak holes, or holding areas should be sealed with an impermeable flexible membrane liner./to contain liquid or solid material. Cover solids with plastic sheet to prevent dissolving in rain or fire fighting water. /Trichlorophenol/

Water Spill: Use natural deep water pockets, excavated lagoons, or sand bag barriers to trap material at bottom. If dissolved, apply activated carbon at ten times the spilled amount in region of 10 ppm or greater concentration. Remove trapped material with suction hoses. Use mechanical dredges or lifts to remove immobilized masses of pollutants and precipitates. /Trichlorophenol/

ACTIVATED CARBON IS A GOOD METHOD FOR REMOVING CHLOROPHENOLS FROM WATER. COMPETITIVE ADSORPTION OCCURS BETWEEN CHLOROPHENOLS & HUMIC SUBSTANCES PRESENT IN NEARLY ALL MUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLIES. THIS COMPETITION DECR THE CAPACITY OF CARBON FOR CHLOROPHENOLS. /CHLOROPHENOLS/

SMALL SPILLS AND LEAKAGE: Should a spill occur while you are handling this chemical, FIRST REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION, then you should dampen the solid spill material with 60-70% ethanol and transfer the dampened material to a suitable container. Use absorbent paper dampened with 60-70% ethanol to pick up any remaining material. Seal the absorbent paper, and any of your clothes, which may be contaminated, in a vapor-tight plastic bag for eventual disposal. Solvent wash all contaminated surfaces with 60-70% ethanol followed by washing with a soap and water solution. Do not reenter the contaminated area until the Safety Officer (or other responsible person) has verified that the area has been properly cleaned.

SRP: The most favorable course of action is to use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational exposure or environmental contamination. Recycle any unused portion of the material for its approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's impact on air quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.

Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Sweep spilled substance into covered containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

SRP: Contaminated protective clothing should be segregated in such a manner so that there is no direct personal contact by personnel who handle, dispose, or clean the clothing. Quality assurance to ascertain the completeness of the cleaning procedures should be implemented before the decontaminated protective clothing is returned for reuse by the workers. Contaminated clothing should not be taken home at end of shift, but should remain at employee's place of work for cleaning.

Keep material out of water sources and sewers; Build dikes to contain flow as necessary; Keep upwind; Avoid breathing vapors or dusts; Wash away any material which may have contacted the body with copious amounts of water or soap and water. /Trichlorophenol/

SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

Immediately wash contaminated areas of skin with concentrated soap solution. Contaminated gloves, clothing, shoes should be removed without delay and disposed by incineration.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1,200(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 3.62(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 3,5-dichlorophenol is expected to have low mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of 3,5-dichlorophenol is 8.14(4), indicating that this compound will partially exist in the anion form and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5). Volatilization of 3,5-dichlorophenol from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.4X10-7 atm-cu m/mole, derived from its vapor pressure, 0.00842 mm Hg(6), and water solubility, 7,394 mg/L(6). 3,5-Dichlorophenol is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(6). The half-life of 3,5-dichlorophenol in an aquifer slurry was reported as 1 day(7) suggesting that biodegradation may be an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1,200(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 3.62(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 3,5-dichlorophenol is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.4X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 0.00842 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 7,394 mg/L(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 190 days and 47 months, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), a measured BCF of 9 to 82(6) suggests bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. A half-life of about 14 days in water(4), suggests that biodegradation may be an important environmental fate process in water(SRC).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 3,5-dichlorophenol, which has a vapor pressure of 0.00842 mm Hg at 25 °C(2) is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 3,5-dichlorophenol is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be about 1 day(SRC), calculated from its estimated rate constant of 1.7X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). 3,5-Dichlorophenol contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

/AQUATIC SPECIES/ ... Ten European laboratories took part in an inter-laboratory study using different commercial devices based on bioluminescence inhibition of bacteria Vibrio fischeri. Reproducibility and stability by short toxicity endpoints, effective concentration that gives 10%, 50% and 80% of inhibition (EC(10), EC(50) and EC(80)) is evaluated. Parametric and non-parametric statistic is applied and performance of participant laboratories is addressed by z-scores calculated by non-parametric statistic. z-Score classification was based on harmonised protocol for proficiency testing of analytical laboratories (satisfactory |z|</=2; questionable 2<|z|</=3; unsatisfactory |z|>3). Tested samples were phenol, 3,5-dichlorophenol and influent wastewater. Based on z-score classification, more than 70% of the laboratories showed a satisfactory performance for phenol, 3,5-dichlorophenol and influent wastewater (86%, 90% and 70%, respectively). Reproducibility and stability was observed in toxicant references and in wastewater samples. EC(80) determination appears to be more robust that EC(10) and EC(50). EC determinations can be considered favorable at 5 and 15min of exposition, in particular for EC(80). The use of different commercial devices can not be considered an additional source of variation.

/AQUATIC SPECIES/ A rapid and simple ecotoxicological bioassay allows quick estimation of the effects of ... 3,5-dichlorophenol (3,5-DCP) on the growth of the green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (formerly Selenastrum capricornutum). The effects of a 15-min exposure to... 3,5-DCP on delayed fluorescence (DF) in P. subcapitata were compared to the results of standard growth inhibition tests involving 72 hr of exposure to these chemicals at the same concentrations. Integrated DF intensity in the time period from 0.6 to 50s was found to correlate with algal growth inhibition as measured by the standard tests.

/AQUATIC SPECIES/ The polychaete Platynereis dumerilii (Polychaeta: Nereidae) has been evaluated as a candidate bioassay species for marine ecotoxicity testing. The species conforms with many of the requirements of an ideal bioassay organism in that (i) it is amenable to laboratory culture, (ii) its relatively small size makes it convenient for handling and laboratory exposure studies, (iii) its diet is defined and can be controlled, (iv) it reproduces throughout the year and, using photoperiod manipulation, can be induced to spawn as required, and (v) it has a short life cycle (approximately 3 months at 20 °C) making it feasible to study the effects of xenobiotics on chronic endpoints such as reproduction. The components of the life history which have been examined to date include fertilization rate, embryo-larval development, and larval survival. These life stages were evaluated using the reference materials used in the 1991 International Paris Commission (PARCOM) Ring Test (namely, the biocides, Bioban P-1487 and Vantocil IB, and the widely used reference toxicant, 3,5-dichlorophenol). For fertilization rate, the median effect concentrations (1-hr EC50 values) were ... 1.92 [corrected] mg/L for 3,5-dichlorophenol ... For embryo-larval development, the median effect concentrations (48-hr EC50 values) were ... 2.13 mg/L for 3,5-dichlorophenol ... . For larval survival, the median lethal concentrations (48-hr LC50 values) were ... 3.64 mg/L for 3,5-dichlorophenol ... .

/AQUATIC SPECIES/ In order to investigate possible synergistic or antagonistic (more or less than additive) toxicity effects, mixtures of chemicals were tested in water using a microbial bioassay. Ten toxicants (3,4-dichloroaniline, 3,5-dichlorophenol, cadmium, chromium, copper, Lindane, linear alkylbenzene sulphonate, pentachlorophenol, toluene, zinc) were chosen on the basis of their common occurrence in industrial effluents within local waste water treatment plants. These toxicants also cover a wide range of modes of toxic action, namely, polar and non-polar narcosis, membrane disruption, respiratory disruption, uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation, biochemical disruption and enzyme inhibition. Efficient screening for possible combination toxicity between toxicants involved testing the chemicals both singly and in triplet combinations. The triplets were based on four replicates of a balanced incomplete block design (BIB). A standardised Vibrio fischeri rapid toxicity bioluminescence assay was used. The combinations tested showed that only one mixture was found to be significantly more toxic than expected from the pure single-toxicant results. Two triplets were significantly less toxic. Further tests on the more toxic triplet showed that the effect was due to only one of the 45 pairs originally screened.

Biologically treated effluent samples from nine Canadian bleached softwood kraft mills were analyzed for chlorinated phenolic content. Chlorinated phenolics, including 3,5-dichlorophenol, are present in effluent discharged from bleached kraft mills and are not expected to contribute an off-odor to recipient waters.

3,5-Dichlorophenol was detected in 7 of 34 treated water samples collected at a sewage treatment plant in Karkola, Finland between September 1989 and November 1990 at an average concentration of 0.34 ug/L(1). 3,5-Dichlorophenol was detected in one sample of aqueous leachate collected at a hazardous waste site in Germany at a concentration of 2.8 ppm(2). 3,5-Dichlorophenol was detected in 2 of 5 samples of gas emissions from a metal reclamation plant in Finland, at an average concentration of 0.1 ug/cu Nm(3).

The Koc of 3,5-dichlorophenol is estimated as 1,200(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.62(1), and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 3,5-dichlorophenol is expected to have low mobility in soil. The pKa of 3,5-dichlorophenol is 8.18(4), indicating that this compound will partially exist in anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).

Dichlorophenols can be synthesized directly by soil fungi utilizing chloride ions and humic phenols found in soil(1); chloroperoxidase enzymes released into soil by fungi can also bring about the chlorination of humic phenols with chloride ions(1). Chlorophenols may be released into the environment through burning of fresh lignocellulosic biomass during forest fires(2).
