Inwater, copper ions have a strong tendency to formcomplexes or to be adsorbed, followed bysedimentation. In the sediment, copper reacts withorganic matter or sulfides; these reactions reducebioavailability.Empty containers and contaminated material byproduct are SPECIAL wastes who must be disposal asallowed by state and local authorities.Classn UNPGr93082III(environmentally hazardous substance, liquid, n.o.s.)it contains Tribasic Copper SulfateICAO/IATA – DGRGGVSee/IMDG – Code15Regulatory information15.1Labelling15.1.1ClassificationN – DANGEROUS FOR THE ENVIRONMENT15.1.2R – Phrases15.1.3S – PhrasesR50/53 – Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause longterm adverse effects in the aquatic environment.S1/2 – Keep locked up and out of the reach of children.S13 – Keep away from food, drink and animal feedingstuffs.S20/21 – When using do not eat, drink or smoke.S29 – Do not empty into drains.S60 – This material and its container must be disposed of ashazardous waste.S61 – Avoid release to environment.
