Excerpt from ERG Guide 153 [Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Combustible)]: TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution. (ERG, 2016)
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Nitrates, nitrites, and related compounds
To fight fire use /carbon dioxide/, dry chemical.
Excerpt from ERG Guide 153 [Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Combustible)]: Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily. When heated, vapors may form explosive mixtures with air: indoors, outdoors and sewers explosion hazards. Those substances designated with a (P) may polymerize explosively when heated or involved in a fire. Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may pollute waterways. Substance may be transported in a molten form. (ERG, 2016)
Use water spray, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. Combat fire from a sheltered position.
Personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Vacuum with specialist equipment (See Notes) or carefully sweep into sealable containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
NO open flames. NO contact with incompatible substances. See Chemical Dangers. Do NOT expose to friction or shock. Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Fireproof. Separated from strong oxidants, strong bases, strong reducing agents, food and feedstuffs and ammonia. Store in an area without drain or sewer access.PROTECT AGAINST PHYSICAL DAMAGE, KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT AND SOURCES OF IGNITION OR ACUTE FIRE HAZARD AREAS. STORAGE AREA SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH AN AUTOMATIC SPRINKLER SYSTEM IF WITHIN A BUILDING.

May decompose explosively on shock, friction or concussion. May explode on heating even in the absence of air. Reacts with strong oxidants and strong bases. Reacts violently with ammonia and strong reducing agents. This generates fire and explosion hazard. On combustion, forms toxic and corrosive gases and fumes including hydrogen chloride and nitrogen oxides.

The substance is severely irritating to the skin and eyes. The substance may cause effects on the blood. This may result in the formation of methaemoglobin. Exposure to high concentrations could cause death.
Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization. The substance may have effects on the blood. This may result in a decrease in haemoglobin and a decrease of blood cells.
No indication can be given about the rate at which a harmful concentration of this substance in the air is reached on evaporation at 20°C.
AEROBIC: 1-Chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene is reported as non-biodegradable in water based on an aqueous screening biodegradation test using 100 ppm as an initial concn, activated sludge inoculum and a 2 week incubation period(1). 1-Chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, present at 100 mg/L, reached 0 percent of its theoretical BOD in 2 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L and the Japanese MITI test suggesting the compound is not readily biodegradable(2). Structurally similar compounds have been shown to undergo biodegradation slowly in the environment(3,4). The half-life of 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene in a dry silt loam soil was greater than 50 days(3) suggesting biodegradation of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene also occurs slowly in the environment(SRC).
The BCF in carp (Cyprinus carpio) ranged from <4.2 to <44 at test concentrations of 1-10 ppb 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene over a 6-week exposure period(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
A Koc of 501 was measured for 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene using a sediment (1.28% organic carbon content) collected from the Yangtse River in China(1). Sorption to montmorillonite clay is stronger (Koc of 6000)(2). Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(3), the Koc of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene can be estimated to be 575(SRC). According to a classification scheme(4), Koc values of 501-575 suggests that 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene is expected to have low mobility in soil. It has been shown that nitrobenzenes adsorb strongly to clay surfaces and the mobility of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene is expected to be low in soils rich in clay content(5,6).

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.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
