AEROBIC: Malathion, present at 100 mg/L, reached 22% of its Theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1). Malathion is rapidly degraded in soils with reported degradation in 10 days in various non sterile (sterile) loam soils: 92% (8%), 94% (5%), and 81% (19%)(2). Biochemical reactions utilized include desulfuration, oxidation, hydrolysis, transfer of alkyl or aryl groups, alkylation, dealkylation, reduction and conjugation(2). The rate of degradation increased with increasing soil organic matter and was related to soil pH(3). C14-Malathion was biodegraded 50% and 10% after 17 days in clay loam (45.3% sand, 19.7% silt, 35% clay, 5.74% organic matter) and sandy soil (74.74% sand, 24.76% silt, 0.5% clay, 1.9% organic matter), respectively(4). In activated sludge, malathion had a first-order degradation rate of 0.161/hr(8). In raw river water (pH 7.3-8.0), malathion was degraded 90% within 2 weeks, no change was observed in distilled water over 3 weeks suggesting that degradation was biological(5). Degradation of malathion was complete in 3 days in non-sterile estuarine sediments, and 57% in 11 days in sterilized sediment(6). Malathion has a first-order degradation rate of 0.902/day and a half-life of 0.8 days under aerobic conditions, under anaerobic conditions a first-order degradation rate of 0.302/day and a half-life of 2.3 days were reported in sediment from San Diego Creek, CA(7). Products of degradation include alpha and beta monocarboxylic acids (major metabolite in soil), and dicarboxylic acid(9).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialMalathion did not bioconcentrate in the freshwater fish topmouth gudgeon (Pseudorasbora parva)(1). No detectable concentration of malathion was observed in pinfish (Lagodon sp) after exposure to 20-75 ug/L(2). Malathion undergoes biotransformation in fish with some of the metabolites being malaoxon, malathion monoacid, malathion diacid, O,O-dimethyl phosphorodithioate, O,O-dimethyl phosphorodithiolate, O,O-dimethyl phosphorodithionate and O,O-dimethylphosphate(2). Based on the rapid metabolism, bioconcentration of malathion in aquatic organisms is expected to be low(SRC). The BCF for egg masses of the Triaenodes tardus (caddisfly) was found to be 10(3). Malathion had BCFs of 3.0, 23 and 1.2 in axenically cultured parrot feather (Myriophyllum aquaticum), duckweed (Spirodela oligorrhiza L) and elodea (Elodea canadensis), respectively(4).
12.4 Mobility in soilThe Koc of malathion was determined 26 times in a field study conducted with five applications at a 10 day interval in a lychee orchard in northern Thailand; Koc values were reported as 927-17,620(1). Other reported Koc values of malathion in soil are 1175(2), 1200(3) and 1800(4). According to a classification scheme(5), these Koc values suggest that malathion is expected to have low to no mobility in soil(SRC). An experiment conducted to see how much malathion leaches at depths of 50 cm in soil found that most of the malathion is degraded in the higher layers of soil (within the polar carboxylic acid groups) and only small degradation products, that are usually biodegradable, move to the groundwater(6).
12.5 Other adverse effectsno data available
13.Disposal considerations 13.1 Disposal methods ProductThe 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.
Contaminated packagingContainers 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.
