| | calcium bis(methylarsonate) Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Colorless liquid. Odorless. | | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by
intraperitoneal and possibly other routes.
Arsenic compounds are considered to be
poisons. An herbicide. When heated to
decomposition it emits toxic fumes of As.

CALCIUM COMPOUNDS. | | Potential Exposure | Organoarsenic herbicide, and defoliant
used to control a wide variety of broadleaf weeds and
annual grasses, primarily in industrial and residential
environments | | Shipping | UN3280 Organoarsenic compound, liquid, n.o.s.,
Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials,
Technical Name Required, Potential Inhalation Hazard
(Special Provision 5 | | Incompatibilities | Keep this material away from bases, heavy metal salts, strong oxidizers; alkaline materials. Contact
with reducing agents may release toxic arsine gas | | Waste Disposal | Do not discharge into drains
or sewers. Dispose of waste material as hazardous waste
using a licensed disposal contractor to an approved landfill.
Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices. If allowed,
Incineration with effluent gas scrubbing is recommended.
In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for
the disposal of pesticides and pesticide containers.
Noncombustible containers should be crushed and buried
under more than 40 cm of soil. Must be disposed properly
by following package label directions or by contacting your
local or federal environmental control agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office. Chemical Treatability of

Fe of Fe2(SO4)3 and 260 ppm of CaO @ pH 5 10.0. High
lime system used 600 ppm of CaO @ pH 5 11.5. Chemical
coagulation was followed by multimedia filtration). (2)
