SRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.

A good 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 good 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 good 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.

Remove all ignition sources. Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and vapours adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable non-plastic containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Animal studies indicate that disulfiram slows the metabolism of paraldehyde by way of inhibition of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase resulting in an increase in blood concn of paraldehyde & acetaldehyde. Until this potential interaction is investigated in humans, paraldehyde & disulfiram should be admin together with caution.

INTERACTIONS BETWEEN PARALDEHYDE & ETHYL ALCOHOL ARE NOT WELL UNDERSTOOD ... DOSES OF 1-2 OZ IN ALCOHOLICS SOMETIMES KILL WITHIN 0.5-4 HR. IN ANIMALS ETHANOL & PARALDEHYDE ARE SYNERGISTIC BUT LESS THAN ADDITIVE IN TERMS OF LETHALITY; UNDER SOME DOSAGE SCHEDULES, HOWEVER, EXPTL DATA SUGGEST THAT THESE DRUGS ARE ANTAGONISTIC.

ADDITIVE CNS DEPRESSION MAY OCCUR WHEN PARALDEHYDE IS ADMIN CONCOMITANTLY WITH OTHER CNS DEPRESSANTS SUCH AS BARBITURATES OR ALCOHOL. SOME FATALITIES HAVE BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH CONCOMITANT USE OF ALCOHOL & PARALDEHYDE.

The increased acetate levels which may follow paraldehyde administration reportedly may increase the danger of sulfonamide crystalluria.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: If released to soil, paraldehyde may volatilize rapidly from soil surfaces or it may leach into deeper soil. Potential degradation products include acetaldehyde and acetic acid. (SRC)

AQUATIC FATE: If released to water, volatilization is expected to be an important, if not the dominant, fate process (half-life in a model river: 31 hr). Paraldehyde is not expected to bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms, or adsorb to suspended solids and sediments in water. (SRC)

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: Based on a vapor pressure of 25.5 mm Hg at 20 °C(1), paraldehyde is expected to exist almost entirely in the vapor phase in the atmosphere(2,SRC). Reaction with photochemically generated hydroxyl radicals is expected to be the dominant removal mechanism (half-life 45 hours). The relatively high water solubility of paraldehyde (125,000 mg/l at 25 °C(3)) suggests that this compound may also be removed from the atmosphere in precipitation(SRC).

Burning sensation in the throat and chest. Nausea. Vomiting. Diarrhoea. Drowsiness. Unconsciousness.

Soil adsorption coefficients (Koc) of 7-55 were estimated for paraldehyde using linear regression equations based on a water solubility of 125,000 mg/l at 25 °C and a log Kow of 0.67(1,2,3,SRC). These Koc values suggest that paraldehyde would be very highly mobile in soil and that adsorption to suspended solids and sediments in water would be insignificant(4,SRC).

... IT MAY PRODUCE EXCITEMENT OR DELIRIUM IN PRESENCE OF PAIN. ... IN LARGE DOSES, IT PRODUCES RESPIRATORY DEPRESSION & HYPOTENSION.

SOME DELAY IN ONSET OF RESP MOVEMENTS HAS BEEN OBSERVED IN NEONATES FOLLOWING ITS ADMIN TO MOTHER DURING LABOR.

Patients poisoned by paraldehyde commonly exhibit very rapid, labored respiratory movements. Acidosis, bleeding gastritis, muscular irritability, azotemia, oliguria, albuminuria, leukocytosis, fatty changes in the liver and kidney with toxic hepatitis and nephrosis, pulmonary hemorrhages and edema, and dilatation of the right ventricle have all been observed in cases of severe acute or chronic paraldehyde poisoning.

Chronic paraldehyde intoxication results in tolerance and dependence. The paraldehyde addict may become acquainted with the drug when it is used in the treatment of alcoholism and then, surprisingly in view of its disagreeable taste and odor, prefer it to alcohol. Paraldehyde addiction resembles alcoholism, and sudden withdrawal may result in delirium tremens and vivid hallucinations.

Paraldehyde may be released to the environment in emissions or effluents from sites of its manufacture or industrial use (paraldehyde is used as a drug, chemical intermediate, dyestuff intermediate, and solvent(1)) and from disposal of wastes containing this compound (ie hospital wastes)(2,3,SRC).

Based on a water solubility of 125,000 mg/l at 25 °C and a log Kow of 0.67, bioconcentration factors (BCF) of 0.8-2 were estimated for paraldehyde(1,2,3,SRC). These BCF values suggest that paraldehyde would not bioaccumulate significantly in aquatic organisms(SRC).

Paraldehyde is an indirect food additive for use as a component of adhesives.

Derivatives designated as a habit forming drug.

U182; As stipulated in 40 CFR 261.33, when paraldehyde, 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).

This action promulgates standards of performance for equipment leaks of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI). These standards implement Section 111 of the Clean Air Act and are based on the Administrator's determination that emissions from the SOCMI cause, or contribute significantly to, air pollution which may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. The intended effect of these standards is to require all newly constructed, modified, and reconstructed SOCMI process units to use the best demonstrated system of continuous emission reduction for equipment leaks of VOC, considering costs, non air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements. Paraldehyde is produced, as an intermediate or final product, by process units covered under this subpart. These standards of performance become effective upon promulgation but apply to affected facilities for which construction or modification commenced after January 5, 1981.

Persons in charge of vessels or facilities are required to notify the National Response Center (NRC) immediately, when there is a release of this designated hazardous substance, in an amount equal to or greater than its reportable quantity of 1000 lb or 454 kg. The toll free number of the NRC is (800) 424-8802; In the Washington D.C. metropolitan area (202) 426-2675. The rule for determining when notification is required is stated in 40 CFR 302.4 (section IV. D.3.b).

BELIEVED TO DEPRESS MANY LEVELS OF CNS INCLUDING ASCENDING RETICULAR ACTIVATING SYSTEM TO CAUSE IMBALANCE BETWEEN INHIBITORY & FACILITATORY MECHANISMS.

The mean half life is 7.5 hours in a range if 3.5-9.5 hours.

The biological half-life of paraldehyde /in humans/ has been reported to be 3.5 to 9.5 hours with an average of about 7.5 hours.

Paraldehyde is believed to undergo depolymerization to acetaldehyde followed by oxidation by aldehyde dehydrogenase. It is thought to ultimately be metabolized to carbon dioxide and water.

It is believed that paraldehyde is depolymerized to acetaldehyde in the liver & then oxidized by aldehyde dehydrogenase to acetic acid, which is ultimately metabolized to carbon dioxide & water.
