Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
SWALLOWED
路 If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
路 If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if
possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
路 Observe the patient carefully.
路 Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness;
i.e. becoming unconscious.
路 Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can
comfortably drink.
路 Seek medical advice.
Avoid giving milk or oils.
Avoid giving alcohol.
路 If spontaneous vomiting appears imminent or occurs, hold patient's head down, lower
than their hips to help avoid possible aspiration of vomitus.
EYE
If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
路 Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
路 Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and
moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
路 If pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
路 Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled
personnel.
SKIN
If skin contact occurs:
路 Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
路 Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
路 Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
INHALED
路 If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area.
路 Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested.
路 Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where
possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures.
路 Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve
resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary.
路 Transport to hospital, or doctor.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
For acute or short term repeated exposures to petroleum distillates or related
hydrocarbons:
路 Primary threat to life, from pure petroleum distillate ingestion and/or inhalation, is
respiratory failure.

Section 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
inadequate tidal volumes or poor arterial blood gases (pO2 50 mm Hg) should be intubated.
路 Arrhythmias complicate some hydrocarbon ingestion and/or inhalation and
electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial injury has been reported; intravenous lines
and cardiac monitors should be established in obviously symptomatic patients. The lungs
excrete inhaled solvents, so that hyperventilation improves clearance.
路 A chest x-ray should be taken immediately after stabilisation of breathing and
circulation to document aspiration and detect the presence of pneumothorax.
路 Epinephrine (adrenalin) is not recommended for treatment of bronchospasm because of
potential myocardial sensitisation to catecholamines. Inhaled cardioselective
bronchodilators (e.g. Alupent, Salbutamol) are the preferred agents, with aminophylline a
second choice.
路 Lavage is indicated in patients who require decontamination; ensure use of cuffed
endotracheal tube in adult patients. [Ellenhorn and Barceloux: Medical Toxicology].

INGREDIENT DATA
NAPHTHALENE:
SOLVENT NAPHTHA PETROLEUM, HEAVY AROMATIC:
Sensory irritants are chemicals that produce temporary and undesirable side-effects on
the eyes, nose or throat. Historically occupational exposure standards for these
irritants have been based on observation of workers' responses to various airborne
concentrations. Present day expectations require that nearly every individual should be
protected against even minor sensory irritation and exposure standards are established
using uncertainty factors or safety factors of 5 to 10 or more. On occasion animal no-
observable-effect-levels (NOEL) are used to determine these limits where human results
are unavailable. An additional approach, typically used by the TLV committee (USA) in
determining respiratory standards for this group of chemicals, has been to assign ceiling
values (TLV C) to rapidly acting irritants and to assign short-term exposure limits (TLV
STELs) when the weight of evidence from irritation, bioaccumulation and other endpoints
combine to warrant such a limit. In contrast the MAK Commission (Germany) uses a five-
category system based on intensive odour, local irritation, and elimination half-life.
However this system is being replaced to be consistent with the European Union (EU)

Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Scientific Committee for Occupational Exposure Limits (SCOEL); this is more closely
allied to that of the USA.
OSHA (USA) concluded that exposure to sensory irritants can:
路 cause inflammation
路 cause increased susceptibility to other irritants and infectious agents
路 lead to permanent injury or dysfunction
路 permit greater absorption of hazardous substances and
路 acclimate the worker to the irritant warning properties of these substances thus
increasing the risk of overexposure.
KEROSINE, (PETROLEUM), HYDRODESULFURISED:
No exposure limits set by NOHSC or ACGIH.
for kerosene CAS 8008-20-6
TLV TWA: 200 mg/m3 as total hydrocarbon vapour Skin A3
Exposure limits with "skin" notation indicate that vapour and liquid may be absorbed
through intact skin. Absorption by skin may readily exceed vapour inhalation exposure.
Symptoms for skin absorption are the same as for inhalation. Contact with eyes and mucous
membranes may also contribute to overall exposure and may also invalidate the exposure
standard.
CAUTION: This substance has been classified by the ACGIH as A3 Animal Carcinogen (at
relatively high doses).
OEL TWA: 14 ppm, 100 mg/m3 [NIOSH, 1985]
REL TWA: 150 ppm [Shell]
CEL TWA: 300 ppm, 900 mg/m3
SOLVENT NAPHTHA PETROLEUM, HEAVY AROMATIC:
Odour threshold: 0.25 ppm.
The TLV-TWA is protective against ocular and upper respiratory tract irritation and is
recommended for bulk handling of gasoline based on calculations of hydrocarbon content of
gasoline vapour. A STEL is recommended to prevent mucous membrane and ocular irritation
and prevention of acute depression of the central nervous system. Because of the wide
variation in molecular weights of its components, the conversion of ppm to mg/m3 is
approximate. Sweden recommends hexane type limits of 100 ppm and heptane and octane type
limits of 300 ppm. Germany does not assign a value because of the widely differing
compositions and resultant differences in toxic properties.

OSF=0.042 (gasoline).
REL TWA: 100 ppm [Manufacturer]
CEL TWA: 100 ppm, 550 mg/m3
NAPHTHALENE:
Exposed individuals are reasonably expected to be warned, by smell, that the Exposure
Standard is being exceeded.
Odour Safety Factor (OSF) is determined to fall into either Class A or B.
The Odour Safety Factor (OSF) is defined as:
OSF= Exposure Standard (TWA) ppm/ Odour Threshold Value (OTV) ppm

The TLV-TWA is thought to be low enough to prevent ocular toxicity but the margin of
safety associated with the TLV for hypersusceptible individuals (with glucose-6-phosphate
dehydrogenase defective erythrocytes) to naphthalene-induced blood dyscracias is unknown.
Individual sensitivity to inhaled naphthalene-induced haemotoxicity varies greatly with
even small doses producing acute haemolysis in some.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
EYE
路 Safety glasses with side shields.
路 Chemical goggles.
路 Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and
concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lens or
restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a
review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account
of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal
and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure,
begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens
should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be
removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC
NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59].
HANDS/FEET
路 Wear chemical protective gloves, eg. PVC.
路 Wear safety footwear or safety gumboots, eg. Rubber.
Suitability and durability of glove type is dependent on usage. Factors such as:
路 frequency and duration of contact,
路 chemical resistance of glove material,
路 glove thickness and
路 dexterity,
are important in the selection of gloves.

Skin contact with the material may damage the health of the individual; systemic effects
may result following absorption.
The material may accentuate any pre-existing dermatitis condition.
INHALED
The vapour is discomforting.
Inhalation hazard is increased at higher temperatures.
Inhalation of high concentrations of gas/vapour causes lung irritation with coughing and
nausea, central nervous depression with headache and dizziness, slowing of reflexes,
fatigue and inco-ordination.
If exposure to highly concentrated solvent atmosphere is prolonged this may lead to
narcosis, unconsciousness, even coma and possible death.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Constant or exposure over long periods to mixed hydrocarbons may produce stupor with
dizziness, weakness and visual disturbance, weight loss and anaemia, and reduced liver
and kidney function. Skin exposure may result in drying and cracking and redness of the
skin. Chronic exposure to lighter hydrocarbons can cause nerve damage, peripheral
neuropathy, bone marrow dysfunction and psychiatric disorders as well as damage the liver
and kidneys.
Chronic solvent inhalation exposures may result in nervous system impairment and liver
and blood changes. [PATTYS].

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
[PETROFIN]
Lifetime exposure of rodents to gasoline produces carcinogenicity although the relevance
to humans has been questioned. Gasoline induces kidney cancer in male rats as a
consequence of accumulation of the alpha2-microglobulin protein in hyaline droplets in
the male (but not female) rat kidney. Such abnormal accumulation represents lysosomal
overload and leads to chronic renal tubular cell degeneration, accumulation of cell
debris, mineralisation of renal medullary tubules and necrosis. A sustained regenerative
proliferation occurs in epithelial cells with subsequent neoplastic transformation with
continued exposure. The alpha2-microglobulin is produced under the influence of hormonal
controls in male rats but not in females and, more importantly, not in humans.

The lower molecular weight hydrocarbons are expected to form a "slick" on the surface of
waters after release in calm sea conditions. This is expected to evaporate and enter the
atmosphere where it will be degraded through reaction with hydroxy radicals.
Some of the material will become associated with benthic sediments, and it is likely to
be spread over a fairly wide area of sea floor. Marine sediments may be either aerobic or
anaerobic. The material, in probability, is biodegradable, under aerobic conditions

(isomerised olefins and alkenes show variable results). Evidence also suggests that the
hydrocarbons may be degradable under anaerobic conditions although such degradation in
benthic sediments may be a relatively slow process.
Under aerobic conditions the material will degrade to water and carbon dioxide, while
under anaerobic processes it will produce water, methane and carbon dioxide.
Based on test results, as well as theoretical considerations, the potential for
bioaccumulation may be high. Toxic effects are often observed in species such as blue
mussel, daphnia, freshwater green algae, marine copepods and amphipods.
Drinking Water Standards:
hydrocarbon total: 10 ug/l (UK max.).
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous in the marine environment,
occurring at their highest environmental concentrations around urban centres.
Two factors, lipid and organic carbon, control to a large extent the partitioning
behaviour of PAHs in sediment, water and tissue; the more hydrophobic a compound, the
greater the partitioning to non-aqueous phases. These two factors, along with the octanol-
water partition coefficient, are the best predictors of this partitioning and can be used
to determine PAH behaviour and its bioavailability in the environment.
The lipid (fat) phase, of all organisms, contains the highest levels of PAHs: organic
carbon associated with sediment or dissolved in water has a great influence on
bioavailability resulting from its ability to adsorb.
Accumulation of PAHs occurs in all marine organisms; however there is a wide range in
tissue concentrations resulting from variable environmental concentrations, level and
time of exposure, and species ability to metabolize these compounds. PAHs generally
partition in lipid-rich tissues and their metabolites are found in most tissues. In fish,
bile and liver accumulate the highest levels of parent PAH and metabolites. In
invertebrates, the highest concentrations can be found in the internal organs, such as
the liver and pancreas; tissue concentrations appear to follow seasonal cycles which may
be related to variations in lipid content or spawning cycles.
Chemical analysis for all individual compounds in a petroleum bulk product released to
the environment is generally unrealistic due to the complexity of these mixtures and the
laboratory expense. Determining the chemical composition of a petroleum release is
further complicated by hydrodynamic, abiotic, and biotic processes that act on the
release to change the chemical character.
The longer the release is exposed to the environment, the greater the change in chemical
character and the harder it is to obtain accurate analytical results reflecting the
identity of the release. After extensive weathering, detailed knowledge of the original
bulk product is often less valuable than current site-specific information on a more
focused set of hydrocarbon components. Health assessment efforts are frequently
frustrated by three primary problems: (1) the inability to identify and quantify the
individual compounds released to the environment as a consequence of a petroleum spill;
(2) the lack of information characterizing the fate of the individual compounds in
petroleum mixtures; and (3) the lack of specific health guidance values for the majority
of chemicals present in petroleum products. To define the public health implications
associated with exposure to petroleum hydrocarbons, it is necessary to have a basic
understanding of petroleum properties, compositions, and the physical, chemical,
biological, and toxicological properties of the compounds most often identified as the
key chemicals of concern.
Petroleum products released to the environment migrate through soil via two general
pathways: (1) as bulk oil flow infiltrating the soil under the forces of gravity and
capillary action, and (2) as individual compounds separating from the bulk petroleum
mixture and dissolving in air or water. When bulk oil flow occurs, it results in little
or no separation of the individual compounds from the product mixture and the
infiltration rate is usually fast relative to the dissolution rate (Eastcott et al.
1989). Many compounds that are insoluble and immobile in water are soluble in bulk oil
and will migrate along with the bulk oil flow. Factors affecting the rate of bulk oil
infiltration include soil moisture content, vegetation, terrain, climate, rate of release
(e.g., catastrophic versus slow leakage), soil particle size (e.g., sand versus clay),

and oil viscosity (e.g., gasoline versus motor oil).
As bulk oil migrates through the soil column, a small amount of the product mass is
retained by soil particles. The bulk product retained by the soil particles is known as
鈥渞esidual saturation.鈥?
Depending upon the persistence of the bulk oil, residual saturation can potentially
reside in the soil for years. Residual saturation is important as it determines the
degree of soil contamination and can act as a continuing source of contamination for
individual compounds to separate from the bulk product and migrate independently in air
or groundwater. Residual saturation is important as it determines the degree of soil

amount of product released to the environment is small relative to the volume of
available soil, all of the product is converted to residual saturation and downward
migration of the bulk product usually ceases prior to affecting groundwater resources.
Adverse impacts to groundwater may still occur if rain water infiltrates through soil
containing residual saturation and initiates the downward migration of individual
compounds. When the amount of product released is large relative to the volume of
available soil, the downward
migration of bulk product ceases as water-saturated pore spaces are encountered. If the
density of the
bulk product is less than that of water, the product tends to 鈥渇loat鈥? along the interface
between the water saturated and unsaturated zones and spread horizontally in a pancake-
like layer, usually in the direction of groundwater flow. Almost all motor and heating
oils are less dense than water.If the density of the bulk product is greater than that of
water, the product will continue to migrate downward through the water table aquifer
under the continued influence of gravity. Downward migration ceases when the product is
converted to residual saturation or when an impermeable surface is encountered.
As the bulk product migrates through the soil column, individual compounds may separate
from the mixture and migrate independently. Chemical transport properties such as
volatility, solubility, and sorption potential are often used to evaluate and predict
which compounds will likely separate from the mixture. Since petroleum products are
complex mixtures of hundreds of compounds, the compounds characterized by relatively high
vapor pressures tend to volatilize and enter the vapor phase. The exact composition of
these vapors depends on the composition of the original product. Using gasoline as an
example, compounds such as butane, propane, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene are
preferentially volatilized. Because volatility represents transfer of the compound from
the product or liquid phase to the air phase, it is expected that the concentration of
that compound in the product or liquid phase will decrease as the concentration in the
air phase increases.
In general, compounds having a vapor pressure in excess of 10-2 mm Hg are more likely to
be present in the air phase than in the liquid phase. Compounds characterized by vapor
pressures less than 10-7 mm Hg are more likely to be associated with the liquid phase.
Compounds possessing vapor pressures that are less than 10-2 mm Hg, but greater than 10-7
mm Hg, will have a tendency to exist in both the air and the liquid phases.
Lighter petroleum products such as gasoline contain constituents with higher water
solubility and volatility and lower sorption potential than heavier petroleum products
such as fuel oil.
Data compiled from gasoline spills and laboratory studies indicate that these light-
fraction hydrocarbons tend to migrate readily through soil, potentially threatening or
affecting groundwater supplies. In contrast, petroleum products with heavier molecular
weight constituents, such as fuel oil, are generally more persistent in soils, due to
their relatively low water solubility and volatility and high sorption capacity.
Solubility generally decreases with increasing molecular weight of the hydrocarbon
compounds. For compounds having similar molecular weights, the aromatic hydrocarbons are
more water soluble and mobile in water than the aliphatic hydrocarbonsand branched
aliphatics are less water-soluble than straight-chained aliphatics. Aromatic compounds in
petroleum fuels may comprise as much as 50% by weight; aromatic compounds in the C6-C13,
range made up approximately 95% of the compounds dissolved in water.

Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Indigenous microbes found in many natural settings (e.g., soils, groundwater, ponds) have
been shown to be capable of degrading organic compounds. Unlike other fate processes that
disperse contaminants in the environment, biodegradation can eliminate the contaminants
without transferring them across media.
The final products of microbial degradation are carbon dioxide, water, and microbial
biomass. The rate of hydrocarbon degradation depends on the chemical composition of the
product released to the environment as well as site-specific environmental factors.
Generally the straight chain hydrocarbons and the aromatics are degraded more readily
than the highly branched aliphatic compounds. The n-alkanes, n-alkyl aromatics, and the
aromatics in the C10-C22 range are the most readily biodegradable; n-alkanes, n-alkyl
aromatics, and aromatics in the C5-C9 range are biodegradable at low concentrations by
some microorganisms, but are generally preferentially removed by volatilization and thus
are unavailable in most environments; n-alkanes in the C1-C4 ranges are biodegradable
only by a narrow range of specialized hydrocarbon degraders; and n-alkanes, n-alkyl
aromatics, and aromatics above C22 are generally not available to degrading
microorganisms. Hydrocarbons with condensed ring structures, such as PAHs with four or
more rings, have been shown to be relatively resistant to biodegradation. PAHs with only
2 or 3 rings (e.g., naphthalene, anthracene) are more easily biodegraded. PAHs with only
2 or 3 rings (e.g., naphthalene, anthracene) are more easily biodegraded. A large
proportion of the water-soluble fraction of the petroleum product may be degraded as the
compounds go into solution. As a result, the remaining product may become enriched in the
alicyclics, the highly branched aliphatics, and PAHs with many fused rings.
In almost all cases, the presence of oxygen is essential for effective biodegradation of
oil. Anaerobic decomposition of petroleum hydrocarbons leads to extremely low rates of
degradation. The ideal pH range to promote biodegradation is close to neutral (6-8). For
most species, the optimal pH is slightly alkaline, that is, greater than 7. The moisture
content of the contaminated soil will affect biodegradation of oils due to dissolution of
the residual compounds, dispersive actions, and the need for microbial metabolism to
sustain high activity. The moisture content in soil affects microbial locomotion, solute
diffusion, substrate supply, and the removal of metabolic by-products. Biodegradation
rates in soils are also affected by the volume of product released to the environment. At
concentrations of l-0.5% of oil by volume, the degradation rate in soil is fairly
independent of oil concentrations. However, as oil concentration rises, the first order
degradation rate decreases and the oil degradation half-life increases. Ultimately, when
the oil reaches saturation conditions in the soil (i.e., 30-50% oil), biodegradation
virtually ceases.
Excessive moisture will limit the gaseous supply of oxygen for enhanced decomposition of
petroleum hydrocarbons. Most studies indicate that optimum moisture content is within 50-
70% of the water holding capacity.
All biological transformations are affected by temperature. Generally, as the temperature
increases, biological activity tends to increase up to a temperature where enzyme
denaturation occurs. The presence of oil should increase soil temperature, particularly
at the surface. The darker color increases the heat capacity by adsorbing more radiation.
The optimal temperature for biodegradation to occur ranges from 18 潞C to 30 潞C. Minimum
rates would be expected at 5 潞C or lower.

Naphthalene released to the atmosphere may be transported to surface water and/or soil by
wet or dry deposition. Since most airborne naphthalene is in the vapor phase, deposition
is expected to be very slow (about 0.04鈥?0.06 cm/sec). It has been estimated that about
2鈥?3% of naphthalene emitted to air is transported to other environmental media, mostly by
dry deposition .
Naphthalene in surface water may volatilize to the atmosphere. The rate of volatilization
also depends upon several environmental conditions, including temperature, wind velocity,
and mixing rates of the air and water columns.
Log octanol/water partition coefficients (Kow) for naphthalene range from 3.29 to 3.37
and log organic carbon coefficients (Koc) range from 2.97 to 3.27. The reported
experimentally determined log Koc is 3.11. Based on the magnitude of these values, it is
expected that only a small fraction (<10%) of naphthalene in typical surface water would
be associated with particulate matter. Thus, naphthalene discharged to surface waters
would remain largely in solution, with smaller quantities being associated with suspended
solids and benthic sediments.
Naphthalene is easily volatilized from aerated soils and is adsorbed to a moderate extent
(10%) . The extent of sorption depends on the organic carbon content of the soil, with
rapid movement expected through sandy soils. The estimated soil adsorption coefficient
for naphthalene in a soil with <0.6% organic carbon is 1.8 . Because it adsorbs to
aquifer material, naphthalene's passage through groundwater will be somewhat retarded.
However, sorption of naphthalene to aquifer materials with low organic carbon content
(<0.03%) may be enhanced by the presence of nonionic low-polarity organics, such as
tetrachloroethene, commonly found at hazardous waste sites. Bioconcentration factors
(BCFs) for naphthalene have been measured and calculated from the Kow, Koc, or water
solubility. The values reported for log BCF range from 1.6 to 3, indicating moderate
bioconcentration in aquatic organisms. Naphthalene is reported to be rapidly eliminated
from invertebrates when the organisms are placed in pollutant-free water, and naphthalene
is readily metabolized in fish . Based on the magnitude of the Kow, bioaccumulation in
the food chain is not expected to occur. However, naphthalene exposure of cows and
chickens could lead to the presence of naphthalene in milk and eggs.
Limited data were located on transport and partitioning of methylnaphthalenes in the
environment. The respective vapor pressures (0.054 and 0.068 mmHg), water solubilities
(25.8 and 24.6 mg/L), and Henry's law constants (3.60x10-4 and 4.99x10-4 atm-m3/mol) for
1-methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene are of similar magnitude to these properties
for naphthalene. Thus, it is likely that loss of methylnaphthalenes from ambient water

occurs by volatilization. Based on the magnitude of log Kow for 1-methylnaphthalene and 2-
methylnaphthalene (3.87 and 3.86, respectively) and the experimental log Koc for 2-
methylnaphthalene (3.93) , these chemicals may partition similarly to naphthalene in
environmental media and are expected to be slightly mobile to immobile in soils. Log BCFs
calculated for 2-methylnaphthalene range from 2 to 2.8 and measured log BCFs for 1-
methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene in oysters ranged from 2.7 to 4.1.
Methylnaphthalenes are also metabolised and excreted rapidly by fish and shellfish when
they are removed from polluted waters.
The most important atmospheric removal process for naphthalene is reaction with
photochemically
produced hydroxyl radicals. The major products of this reaction are 1- and 2-naphthol and
1- and 2-nitronaphthalene. Naphthalene also reacts with N2O5, nitrate radicals, and ozone
in the atmosphere and photolysis is expected to occur. Methylnaphthalenes also react with
hydroxyl radicals. The reported rate constants are 5.30x10-11 and 5.23x10-11 cm3/molecule-
sec for 1-methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene, respectively. Based on an
atmospheric hydroxyl radical concentration of 1x10 6/cm3, the corresponding atmospheric
half-lives are 3.6 and 3.7 hours. Reactions of 1-methylnaphthalene and 2-
methylnaphthalene with N2O5 radicals have half-lives of 24 and 19 days, respectively.
These chemicals also react with atmospheric ozone.
Naphthalene and methylnaphthalenes are degraded in water by photolysis and biological
processes. The half-life for photolysis of naphthalene in surface water is estimated to
be about 71 hours, but the half-life in deeper water (5 m) is estimated at 550 days. The
half-lives for photolysis of 1-methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene were estimated
at 22 and 54 hours, respectively.
Biodegradation of naphthalene is sufficiently rapid for it to be a dominant fate process
in aquatic systems. Data on biodegradation of naphthalene in biodegradability tests and
natural systems suggest that biodegradation occurs after a relatively short period of
acclimation. Methylnaphthalenes are biodegraded under aerobic conditions after
adaptation. The highest degradation rates were reported in water constantly polluted with
petroleum.
Naphthalene biodegradation rates are about 8鈥?20 times higher in sediment than in the
water column above the sediment. Methylnaphthalenes biodegrade more slowly. Reported half-
lives in sediments were 46 weeks for 1-methylnaphthalene and ranged from 14 to 50 weeks
for 2-methylnaphthalene.
In soils, biodegradation potential is important to biological remediation of soil.
Studies on biodegradation of PAHs suggest that adsorption to the organic matter
significantly reduces the bioavailability for microorganisms, and thus the
biodegradability, of PAHs, including naphthalene. Biodegradation is accomplished through
the action of aerobic microorganisms and declines precipitously when soil conditions
become anaerobic. Studies indicate that naphthalene biodegrades to carbon dioxide in
aerobic soils, with salicylate as an intermediate product. Abiotic degradation of
naphthalene seldom occurs in soils. The behavior of 1-methylnaphthalene in sandy loam was
very similar to that of naphthalene. 1-Methylnaphthalene was easily volatilised from
aerated soil, and the biodegradation half-life averaged between 1.7 and 2.2 days.
