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.

1. Ventilate area of spill or leak. 2. Collect for reclamation or absorb in vermiculite, dry sand, earth, or a similar material. /chloroform/

Do not touch spilled material. Use water spray to reduce vapors. For small spills, take up with absorbent material then flush area with water. For large spills, dike far ahead. /Chloroform/

Oxidation processes are responsible for the removal of organic compounds and precursors of trihalomethanes. Substitution reactions are the source of chlorine incorporation into the organic matter. Disinfectants differ in their abilities to carry out oxidation and substitution reactions, but studies show that chloramines also add chlorine to organic materials by substitution. Before a decision is made to change disinfectants, operating parameters and chemical functions must be taken into account to achieve the best quality drinking water.

SMALL SPILLS AND LEAKAGE: If you spill this chemical, FIRST REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION. Then, use absorbent paper to pick up all liquid spill material. Your contaminated clothing and absorbent paper should be sealed 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: 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.

Chloroform is a waste chemical stream constituent which may be subjected to ultimate disposal by controlled incineration, preferably after mixing with another combustible fuel; care must be exercised to assure complete combustion to prevent the formation of phosgene; an acid scrubber is necessary to remove the halo acids produced. /Chloroform/

Potential candidate for liquid injection incineration, with a temperature range of 650 to 1600 °C and a residence time of 0.1 to 2 seconds; for rotary kiln incineration with a temperature of of 820 to 1600 °C and a residence time of seconds for liquids and gases, hours for solids; and for fluidized bed incineration, with a temperature range of 450 to 980 °C and a residence time of seconds for liquids and gases, longer for solids. /Chloroform/

Skin that becomes wet with liquid chloroform should be promptly washed or showered with soap or mild detergent and water to remove any chloroform. Employees who handle chloroform should wash their hands thoroughly with soap and mild detergent and water before eating, or smoking. /Chloroform/

Where there is any possibility that employees' eyes may be exposed to chloroform, an eye-wash fountain should be provided within the immediate work area for emergency use. /Chloroform/

Good industrial hygiene practices recommend that engineering controls be used to reduce environmental concentrations to the permissible level. However, there are some exceptions where respirators may be used to control exposure. Respirators may be used when engineering and work practice controls are not technically feasible, when such controls are in the process of being installed, or when they fail and need to be supplemented. Respirators may also be used for operations which require entry into tanks or closed vessels, and in emergency situations. In addition to respirator selection, a complete respiratory protection program should be instituted which includes regular training, maintenance, inspection, cleaning, and evaluation. /Chloroform/

Clothing wet with liquid chloroform should be placed in closed containers for storage until it can be discarded or until provision is made for the removal of chloroform from the clothing. If the clothing is to be laundered or otherwise cleaned to remove the chloroform, the person preforming the operation should be informed of chloroform's hazardous properties. /Chloroform/

Non-impervious clothing which becomes wet with liquid chloroform should be removed promptly and not worn until the chloroform is removed ... /Chloroform/

Chlorodibromomethane was identified in one of 12 human milk samples collected from volunteers from four USA cities (Bridgeville, PA; Bayonne, NJ; Jersey City, NJ; and Baton Rouge, LA) (1). Chlorodibromomethane was not detected in any sample from the USEPA National Human Adipose Tissue Survey for fiscal year 1982(2). 12% of 1035 blood samples tested positive for chlorodibromomethane exposure in a non-occupationally exposed U.S. population(3).

EYES: irrigate opened eyes for several minutes under running water. INGESTION: do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth with water (never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person). Seek immediate medical advice. SKIN: should be treated immediately by rinsing the affected parts in cold running water for at least 15 minutes, followed by thorough washing with soap and water. If necessary, the person should shower and change contaminated clothing and shoes, and then must seek medical attention. INHALATION: supply fresh air. If required provide artificial respiration.

Exposure to dibromochloromethane leads to central nervous system depression, which is probably the chief cause of death in acute exposures. Some studies in animals indicate that exposure to high doses of dibromochloromethane may also lead to liver and the kidney injury within a short period of time. (L1173)

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 84(2), indicates that chlorodibromomethane is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of chlorodibromomethane from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 7.83X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(3). Chlorodibromomethane is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 5.5 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(4). Chlorodibromomethane is resistant to aerobic biodegradation(5), but degrades anaerobically within 2(6) to 8 weeks(7).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 84(2), indicates that chlorodibromomethane is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 7.83X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 2.6 hrs and 6 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 9(SRC), from its log Kow of 2.16(6) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Volatilization of chlorodibromomethane is the dominant removal mechanism from environmental surface waters(SRC). The volatilization half-life from rivers and streams has been estimated to range from 43 min to 16.6 days with a typical half-life being 46 hours(8). Chlorodibromomethane is resistant to aerobic biodegradation(9), but degrades anaerobically within 2(10) to 8 weeks(11).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), chlorodibromomethane, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 5.5 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase chlorodibromomethane 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 280 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 5.8X10-14 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) determined using a structure estimation method(3). Direct photolysis does not occur below the ozone layer(4).

An analysis of 12 samples of various German milk products (ice cream, yogurt, curds, buttermilk) found chlorodibromomethane levels ranging from not detectable to 0.3 ug/kg with an overall mean concentration of 0.1 ug/kg(1). Chlorodibromomethane concentrations in food samples ranged from not detected to 0.6 ppb for 24 hour duplicate portion diet in Japanese housewives(2).

Used to make other organic chemicals (fire extinguishing agents, aerosol propellants, refrigerants, and pesticides); [HSDB]

Chemical reagent/intermediate in organic synthesis.

Chlorodibromomethane has been used as a chemical intermediate in the manufacture of fire extinguishing agents, aerosol propellants, refrigerants and pesticides. It is also used for the preparation of phenyldibromochloromethylmercury, which has been used for the generation of bromochlorocarbene.

Dibromochloromethane exposition occurs by drinking water that has been treated with chlorine, at a swimming pool, by breathing bromoform or dibromochloromethane that has evaporated into the air, or by uptake from the water through the skin. Neither dibromochloromethane nor bromoform are likely to be found in food. (L1173)
