Section 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

5 Page 5 of Information on toxicological effects: Based on available data, the classification criteria for relevant hazard classes are not met. Acute toxicity: Oral: LD50 (Rat) > mg/kg (test conducted in 1979 by the American Agency FHSA IUCLID (February 2000)). Inhalation: LC50 (Rat) > 64,4 mg/l (test conducted in 1979 by the American Agency FHSA IUCLID (February 2000)). Germ cell mutagenicity: Based on the available data, petroleum cokes are not considered to be germ cell mutagens (Concawe). Carcinogenicity: Based on the available data, petroleum cokes are not considered carcinogenic (Concawe). Reproductive toxicity: Results indicate that exposure to petroleum coke is unlikely to present a reproductive hazard (Concawe). Inhalation of the dusts should be avoided as even inert dusts may impair respiratory organ functions. No toxic effects are to be expected when the product is handled appropriately. Section 12 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Toxicity: LC 50 (fathead minnow) > 1,000 mg/l (API, 2007b), EC 50 (daphnids) > 1,000 mg/l (API, 2007a), IC 50 (algae) > 1,000 mg/l (API, 2006). The ecotoxicity is expected to be low due to low bioavailability Persistence and degradability: Petroleum cokes are not expected to meet the criteria for ready degradability Bioaccumulative potential: Not relevant, the product is insoluble in water Mobility in soil: No data available Results of PBT and vpvb assessment: According to the results of the assessment, this product is not a PBT or a vpvb Other adverse effects: No relevant information. Section 13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS Waste treatment methods: Dispose of in accordance with national and regional regulations. Section 14 TRANSPORT INFORMATION UN number: Not relevant.
