Section XII.        Ecological Information    
    Ecotoxicity        Not available.    
    Environmental Fate        Glycerin is produced in large quantities synthetically and used in thousands of applications. It may be released to the    
    environment in industrial effluent and during the use and disposal of the numerous products in which it is contained. If
    released to soil, glycerin is expected to undergo rapid biodegradation under aerobic conditions. It is expected to display
    very high mobility in soil and it is not expected to significantly volatilize to the atmosphere. If released to water, glycerin is
    expected to rapidly degrade under aerobic conditions. Biodegradation in seawater and under anaerobic conditions is also
    expected. Glycerin is not expected to bioconcentrate is fish and aquatic organisms nor is it expected to adsorb to
    sediment and suspended organic matter. Volatilization to the atmosphere is expected to be slower then for water itself. If
    released to the atmosphere, glycerin may undergo a gas-phase oxidation with photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals
    with a half-life of 33 hrs. It may also undergo atmospheric removal by wet deposition processes. Occupational exposure to
    glycerin may occur by dermal contact during its production and use. Exposure to the general population may occur by
    dermal contact or ingestion due to the wide variety of food and personal care products in which it is contained.

Section XIII. Disposal Considerations
    Waste Disposal        Recycle to process, if possible. Consult your local regional authorities. You may be able to dissolve or mix material with a    
    combustible solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber system. Observe all
    federal, state and local regulations when disposing of the substance.
