Persistence and degradability
In experiments with a soil column, concentrations of 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol were about two orders of magnitude lower in the column effluent than in the feed(1). Soil from this column, which had undergone 3 inundation cycles with 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol at 10 ug/l, required 16 hours to convert 7% of this compound to CO2. Microbial adaptation was noted for this compound, as indicated by increased removal efficiencies during successive inundation cycles (6 day flooding, 16 day drying cycle) at varying concentrations. Column effluent concentrations of 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol were independent of input concentrations during the final stage of the test(1). Following three aerobic flooding cycles, anaerobic conditions were introduced(2). Fractional breakthrough profiles for 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol did not change (from those obtained during aerobic test conditions) although the degree of breakthrough increased for this compound; this indicates that the inhibition in compound removal mediated by anaerobic conditions is not due solely to cessation of mineralization activity(2).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF value of 6000 was calculated for 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 5.28(1,SRC) and a recommended regression-derived equation(2). According to a recommended classification scheme(3), this BCF value suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms will be an important fate process(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol is estimated as approximately 18,000(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 5.28(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2,SRC). According to a recommended classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol will be immobile in soil(SRC). However, this compound was measured in wells down gradient from the flooding basins (0.17 ug/L) during rapid infiltration of primary sewage (containing 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol at 0.79 ug/L) at a kame site(4). Sorption processes did not appear to completely control the movement of this compound through soil(4). This compound was again present in wells down gradient from the initial site(at 0.01-0.017 ug/L) at another rapid infiltration site in Arizona (4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol initially present at 0.757 ug/L); here, removal of 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol was attributed mainly to sorption processes as the sewage had been through secondary treatment(5).

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
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.
