5.Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
Excerpt from ERG Guide 159 [Substances (Irritating)]: SMALL FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or regular foam. LARGE FIRE: Water spray, fog or regular foam. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk. Dike fire-control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material. FIRE INVOLVING TANKS OR CAR/TRAILER LOADS: Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles. Do not get water inside containers. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in fire. For massive fire, use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles; if this is impossible, withdraw from area and let fire burn. (ERG, 2016)

12.2 Persistence and degradability
A mixed culture of soil microorganisms containing primarily Pseudomonas and Flavobacteria dehalogenated 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane to n-propanol(1). The most rapid rate of dehalogenation (20% in 1 week) was obtained with pH 8 soil suspensions; the maximum observed dehalogenation was 63% after 4 weeks under unspecified conditions(2). Biodegradation of 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane was measured in soil columns; half-lives of 6.6, 13.0, and 1130 days were obtained for natural, nutrient-enriched, and sterile conditions, respectively(3). Two soil samples, four subsoil materials and groundwater samples, and a sewage sample were incubated in the presence of 0.05 to 500 mg 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane/kg soil, soil suspension, or water. No transformation was noted, by formation of inorganic halide or organic products or by the production of CO2, over 60 days(4). Soil samples, maintained under anaerobic conditions, transformed 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane, at 10 and 100 mg/kg suspension, with 5.6 and 11.6% conversion, respectively, in 28 days(4). Groundwater and aquifer samples incubated under similar, anaerobic conditions were unable to convert 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane over a 4 month period(4). Alkyl reductive dehalogenation was reported as a transformation mechanism for the biodegradation of 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane in anaerobic soil(5).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
A bioconcentration factor for 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane of 11 was estimated from a measured water solubility of 1,230 ppm(1).
12.4 Mobility in soil
The Kd for the adsorption of 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane onto Panoche clay loam is 0.20 cu cm/g for a 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane concentration range of 0.5-95 ug/ml(1). A Kd value of 0.286 L/kg was measured in Hanford sandy loam soil columns(2). Values of 40 (Koc value)(3) and 128 (Kom value)(4) were measured for 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane in unspecified soils. Koc values of 129 and 149 were measured in a silt loam and in a fine sand soil, respectively(5). Koc values of 305 and 355 were measured for aquifer solids from the Fresno aquifer (pH 7.3-7.7, mass fraction of organic carbon=0.0002); a calculated Rf value from these results indicates that only about 10% of the 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane is sorbed to the aquifer material(6). Koc values for 3 soils ranged from 70 to 126 (pH 7.6-8.1, mass fraction of organic carbon=0.0052-0.0544)(6). According to a recommended classification scheme(7), these measured Koc values suggest that 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane has moderate to very high mobility in soil(SRC).

13.Disposal considerations
13.1 Disposal methods
Product
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
