               RESEARCH REPORTING SERIES

Research reports of the Office of Research and Development, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, have been grouped into five series. These five broad
categories were established to facilitate further development and application of
environmental technology. Elimination of traditional grouping was consciously
planned to foster technology transfer and a maximum interface in related fields.
The five series are:

    1.   Environmental Health Effects Research
    2.   Environmental Protection Technology
    3.   Ecological Research
    4.   Environmental Monitoring
    5.   Socioeconomic  Environmental Studies

This report  has been assigned  to the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
TECHNOLOGY series. This  series describes research performed to develop and
demonstrate instrumentation, equipment, and methodology to repair or prevent
environmental degradation  from point and non-point sources of pollution. This
work provides the new or  improved technology required for the control and
treatment of pollution sources to meet environmental quality standards.

PESTICIDES INDUSTRY
INDUSTRY DESCRIPTION
This industry produces the organic chemicals known as pesticides, which
are used to control agricultural pests such as insects, fungus, plants
and rodents, to disinfect and condition soil, and as plant hormones. This
industry includes only the bulk producers and does not include other pro-
ducers of preparations made from the chemicals. The inorganic chemicals,

petroleum products and creosote used as pesticides are specifically excluded
from this study. Such materials represent a minor use of the product chemi-
calor are products or by-products of processes addressed in other industries.
Many products of this industry are produced by single producers. A nar-
row product line is either the reflection of the success of a particular
line of research and the consequent proprietary position developed by the
producer or an indication of similar processes utilizing the same produc-
tion equipment, The rapid growth of herbicides and insecticides has been
tempered by the increasing attention to long-term residual environmental
effects. On the other hand, the growing worldwide need for food will con-
tinue to generate the pressure for fast-acting, selective and specific
pesticides.
Over 550 pesticides have been identified, with about 200 pesticides in
current production and use. Many different processes and input materials
are used for these various pesticides. As a result, to present a clearer
picture of the process relationships in the pesticide industry, the pesti-
cides have been separated into 12 industrial segments with similar chemical
structures and reactions. The industry segments are:
a.
Simple and aromatic chlorinated hydrocarbons;

Diene-based;
Organophosphates;
Carbamates and thiocarbamates;
Triazines;
Anilides;

These segments are described in more detail in a later section of this
report. The section on pesticide industry segments includes a descrip-
tion of each pesticide group with typical uses, chemical structures and
reactions and input materials. Representative flow sheets are included
to indicate the interrelationship and similarities of the pesticide pro-
cesses in each group.
The production volume for the pesticides industry has been reported at
1,258 million pounds in 1972 by the u.s. Tariff Commission. By-products
from other industries (e.g., creosote) accounted for over 1 billion addi-
tional pounds. For proprietary reasons, detailed production information
on pesticides with only one or two producers is not reported by the Tariff
Commission. Also, disparities have been noted between reportea production
volumes and sales. From industrial contacts and the Tariff COtrnnission in-
formation, Dr. Edward W. Lawless at the Midwest Research Institute has
conducted an in-house review of the pesticide production. This MRI esti-
mate of production for 1972 is presented in Appendix E.
Major pesticide production plants with capacities over 5 million pounds
are located in 25 states. Many plants are found near the coasts in close
proximity to refineries for supply of petroleum and ch1or-a1ka1i feed-
stocks. The size of the pesticide plants varies from less than 50,000
1b/year up to 200 million pounds per year.
According to information reported by Stanford Research Institute (SRI),
the projected average growth through 1980 for pesticide production is 6
to 8%/year, which is slightly greater than expected growth in consumption.
The difference will be exported to meet the projected 10%/year average
growth in pesticide demand worldwide. The trend will be to develop highly
selective pesticide formulations from commercially available chemicals.
The prohibitive cost of determining the environmental impact of any new
pesticide is likely to deter development and introduction of new chemi-
cals as broad-based pesticides. The replacement of chemical insecticides
by hormones and pheromones will be gradual. Much depends on future de-
velopment of effective methods of application and on farmer education.

-------
Information on the energy requirements for the pesticide industry is
not generally available since many products are proprietary- The feed-
stock raw materials such as chlorine and sodium hydroxide may require
large amounts of energy if electrolysis of brine solution is used. How-
ever, most of these feedstocks are actually products of the chlor-alkali,
petroleum and chemical industries. The final pesticide reactions them-
selves require relatively low amounts of energy for heating and maintain-
ing reaction temperatures, for some reflux and stripping operations and
for pumping of fluids.
Raw Materials
A list of the raw materials required to produce each pesticide is in-
cluded in Appendix A. This list is divided into the industrial segments.
The raw materials include many petroleum-based hydrocarbon chemicals from
the petroleum and chemical industry and some chlorine and sodium hydrox-
ide from salt electrolysis or from the chlor-alkali industry. Large
amounts of sulfuric and nitric acids are also used from the inorganic
chemical industry. The gases including chlorine, phosgene and ammonia
used in the production of some pesticides can be extremely toxic if re-
leased to the atmosphere. The heavy metal, arsenic, cyanide, and phos-
phate raw materials can also be a health hazard in water and air. The
bases and acids are potentially corrosive and can present a health hazard.
Products
Over 200 pesticides are in current production and use in the United
States. These pesticides are used as insecticides, herbicides, fungi-
cides, fumigants, rodenticides, and for other purposes. Some of the
pesticide products are also used as input materials for other pesticide
processes.
Products of this industry which have been identified by the U.S. Tariff
Commission are listed in Appendix B. These products are classified in
SIC 28694. Company listings for these products and other pesticides
have been compiled by the Stanford Research Institute from their Direc-
tory of Chemical Producers - USA. The SRI compilation is included as
Appendix C. Some pesticides which are not included by the U.S. Tariff
Commission are listed in Appendix D.
Companies
Over 25 companies are major producers of pesticides with production ca-
pacities above 5 million pounds. The largest plants for some major pro-
ducers are listed in Table 1. Most of the producers of bulk insecticides

The plants are located throughout the United States in about 25 states.
Many pesticide producers are located near refineries and seacoasts to

Environmental Impact
The pesticide industry produces many products which are toxic to humans
and many more which are toxic or harmful to animals, fowl, fish, bene-
ficial insects, and plants. These effects can be minimized by use of
the least harmful, effective pesticide mixture with control of pesticide
distribution, proper handling procedures and application. Even with
these precautions, poisonous and carcinogenic pesticide residues are
found in runoff water from land used for agricultural purposes. Some
of these pesticides and pesticide residues have also been identified in
the waste streams coming from pesticide production plants. The pesticide
residues in plant waste streams and in agricultural runoff waters are
thought by some authorities to constitute a serious public health hazard.
It should be mentioned that there is the possibility that the chlorinated
hydrocarbons found in drinking water are formed during chlorination water
treatment. However, with the presently available information, it would
appear that the organic substances occurring in drinking water are for the
large part of industrial origin. Although data on the composition of
liquid waste streams from pesticide manufacturing processes are not avail-
able in the open literature, evidence exists that various organic materials
are present in liquid wastes. Some organic chemicals found in pesticide
plant effluents in an ongoing EPA monitoring study on carcinogens in water
supplies are listed in Table 2.
Some of the feedstock chemicals and intermediate chemicals used in pes-
ticide production also have hazardous toxic or corrosive properties. The
gases including chlorine, phosgene and ammonia represent potential toxic
hazards. Heavy metals, arsenic, cyanide, phosphate and partially chlori-
nated hydrocarbons also represent potential toxic hazards. In addition,
the acids and bases used represent potential hazards to health and safety.

-------
The pesticide industry is aware of the toxic nature of some of its prod-
ucts and has taken steps to protect the industry workers and to control
leakage or venting of toxic materials. Since many pesticide processes
are proprietary, very little information is available on the potential
toxic ingredients included in the air, water and solid wastes from these
processes. Accurate information on production amounts and raw materials
is even difficult to obtain for many pesticides. This lack of informa-
tion prevents a full evaluation of the potential health effects from
pesticide manufacturing wastes and of the environmental control methods
in use by the pesticide industry.
The characterization of waste streams and of treatment or disposal methods
in the process descriptions may appear to be overly simplistic. This
appearance is a direct result of the lack of meaningful process data
characteristic of this industry. In most cases the waste streams can be
expected to contain unreacted raw materials, reaction byproducts or pesti-
cide products, but difinitive information has never been published. An
indication in the process description that the waste material is fltreatedfl
and/or fldischarged", unaccompanied by more specific information, reflects
the almost total lack of treatment data.
Available information indicates that the equipment used to produce pest-
icides is usually isolated from other company activities and is dedicated
to one pesticide or similar pesticides. The gaseous emissions are often
controlled by condensation recovery, scrubbing and flares. Liquid ef-
fluents from the processes and from the gas scrubbing systems represent
the biggest pollution source. These liquid effluents may undergo many
separation treatments including stripping, decanting, filtration, set-
tling, and adsorption. Often, the most toxic waste streams have been in-
jected in deep wells, dumped at sea or dewatered and buried in landfill
sites.
------- ~--
A newer technique has been the incineration at sea on a special incinerator
ship (by Shell Chemical under EPA supervision). Many pesticide residues,
cancelled pesticides and waste products may also be incinerated success-
fully. Recently a pilot level study was conducted to determine incinerator
operating condition necessary for safe disposal of pesticides. Nine pesti-
cides in 15 liquid and solid formulation were investigated. The pesticide
studied were DDT, aldrin, picloram, malathion, toxaphene, atrazine, captan,
zineb and mirex. The formulated pesticide was injected into the primary
combustion chamber of the incinerator. Destruction efficiencies of greater
than 99.99 per cent were achieved for all pesticides tested except mirex
over a range of combustion chamber temperature/retention time combinations.

Emissions containing potentially hazardous components may occur not only
in the form of process waste streams but also from housekeeping and spill
cleanup operations, during packaging operations, and in effluent from
laundering of worker protective clothing. Estimates of the quantity and
composition of waste produced annually during pesticide manufacture have
been published9 and summarized.10 It is reported that 5.4 x 103 metric
tons (5.9 x 103 short tons) of accumulated surplus pesticides are currently
stored in government facilities.9
The Office of Solid Waste Management.Programs, EPA, is currently investi-
gating potentially hazardous effluents from this industry destined for
land disposal. The results will be available soon in a series of studies
entitled Assessment of Industrial Hazardous Waste Practices. Organic
Chemicals, Pesticides, and Explosives.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
The pesticide industry has produced over 550 diffferent pesticides. and
about 200 of these pesticides are in current production. Because of the
variety of chemical compounds in production as pesticides, many processes
are used. For many pesticides with similar chemical structure, the pro-
duction processes are similar. For other pesticides derived from a common
raw material, the processes are also similar. Based on these similar com-
pounds or those with a common input raw material, the pesticide industry
has been divided into 12 industrial segments.
Data for the industry analysis are presented in 12 sections, one for
each segment of the industry. The order of presentation is:

Urea and uracil pesticides;
Nitrated'hydrocarbon pesticides;
Other nitrogenous pesticides;
Organoarsenic and organometallic pesticides;
Microbial and natural-occurring pesticides; and
Other pesticides.
Each of the above 12 segments is further broken into component processes.
The chemical reaction trees and process flow sheets for individual industry
segments are shown in Figures 1 through 31, with process interrelationships
schematically presented on the flow sheets. Each chemical reaction tree
and process flow sheet immediately follows its respective industry segment
description. Processes within a particular segment are described sequentially
in the section immediately following the figure on which they are shown.
Many of the production operations in the industry are proprietary, and descrip-
tive process data are either quite limited or not available. Because of this
lack of detailed information chemical trees and process flow sheets are some-
what generalized. Separate process descriptions are included to characterize
those processes for which even limited data have been found. The process
descriptions presented in this study are numbered consecutively and are
represented by identically numbered rectangles shown on the flow sheets.
Processes for which no information was found are represented by unnumbered
rectangles on the flow sheets. In addition, such processes are listed at
the end of each segment description.
11

-------
Within each process description available data have been presented on operating
variables and waste streams associated with that process. Process rectangles
on the flow sheets are flagged to indicate the presence of gaseous, liquid
and/or solid waste streams. For most pesticide processes, little or no infor-
mation is available on potential pollution problems, emissions, effluents,
solid wastes, applied control technology and energy usage. For some processes,
no information is available beyond potential input materials or example chemi-
cal reactions cited in patent applications.
Some pesticides can be produced by as many as eight different processes, none
specifically identified with a particular producer or plant. For some of the
more popular pesticides, such as atrazine, information originally supplied by
the producer to MRI for other pesticide studies has been incorporated herein.
For other pesticides, much more data is needed from the producers in order to
make a proper evaluation of the pollution potential for their respective pro-
cesses and for the industry as a whole.

Simple and Aromatic Chlorinated Hydrocarbon Pesticides
A large family of
matic chlorinated
hydrocarbons with
about 90 pesticides is classified as simple and aro-
pesticides. These pesticides include acylic and cyclic
at least one chlorine atom.
The simple and aromatic chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides can be sepa-
rated into three groups: (a) simple chlorinated hydrocarbons; (b) DDT-
family of chlorinated hydrocarbons; and (c) aromatic-chlorinated hydro-
carbons. The "phenoxie" pesticides have phenol as a base and are included
as aromatic chlorinated hydrocarbons. The simple chlorinated hydrocarbon
pesticides have no common configuration. DDT, DDD, methoxychlor and hexa-
chlorophene include two aromatic rings in a "di" configuration. The gen-
eral structure of the aromatic-chlorinated hydrocarbons is:

The "phenoxies" are more connnonly available in a salt form compared to
the acid form. 2,4-D is also sold in an ester form. Although bromoxynil
is a brominated aromatic hydrocarbon, it is still often classified as a
"phenoxie" and is included here.
The annual production in 1972 of the chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides
included in this industry segment is estimated at over 380 million pounds
(about 30% of all pesticides). Toxaphene, which is the most popular pest-
icide, accounts for 95 million pounds. DDT still accounts for 40 million
pounds as an insecticide, and methoxychlor accounts for 3 million. The
"phenoxies" are used as herbicides with 2,4-D amine salts at 22.7 million
pounds and acids and esters at 30 million pounds. Other "phenoxies" in-
clude 2,4,5-T at 7 million pounds, Silvex at 3 million pounds, and ~~PA
at 2 million pounds.
Herbicides include chloramben at 20 million pounds and TCA at 11.3 mil-
lion pounds. Fungicides include PCP at 49.7 million pounds and 2,4,5-
trichlorophenol at 18 million pounds. In addition, soil fumigants include
dichloropropene at 20 million pounds.
The use of the DDT family and toxaphene pesticides is expected to decrease
as substitutes are found.
Many of the chemical reactions for chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides are
indicated in Figure 1. Figure 2 is the flow sheet for the simple chlori-
nated hydrocarbon pesticides. The flow sheets for the DDT family and
other chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons are presented in Figures 3 and 4.

SIMPLE AND AROMATIC CHLORINATED
HYDROCARBON PESTICIDES
PROCESS NO.1
Dichlorobenzene Chlorination Process
1.
Function - The dichlorobenzene chlorination process consists of
three process steps; the chlorination of the benzene, product re-
covery, and waste treatment and recovery.
In the chlorination step, dry benzene is charged into a lead or
glass-lined chlorinator containing about 1% by weight (of the ben-
zene charged) of iron turnings to be used as the catalyst. Chlorine
is then bubbled into the charge at the rate necessary to maintain a
constant temperature. This step yields waste HCl and chlorinated
benzene s .
To recover the dichlorobenzene, the chlorinated benzenes are neu-
tralized with an aqueous solution (10%) of caustic soda and then
sent to a separator. A sludge rich in dichlorobenzene settles out
and is withdrawn at the bottom. The lighter materials are with-
drawn and then distilled. The distillation yields benzene and
water, benzene and chlorobenzene, chlorobenzene, and dichloro- and
poylchlorobenzenes. The dichloro- and polychlorobenzelles and the
sludge are then processed for final re~0very of dichlorobenz~ne.
The basic waste product is the HCl by-product of the chlorination
process. This HCI is scrubbed with benzene or chlorobenzene and
then is absorbed in water to give hydrochloric acid. The benzene
or chlorobenzene from the scrubbing process is circulated into
the chlorination step of the process.
2.
Input Materials - Benzene and chlorine.
3.
Operating Parameters - Chlorination temperature, 40 to 60°C.
4.
Utilities - Data not available.
5.
Waste Streams - At one plant, liquid plant wastes containing poly-
chlorobenzenes go to an approved landfill.
6.
EPA Source Classification Code - None exists.

HYDROCARBON PESTICIDES
PROCESS NO.2
DDT Process
1.
Function - DDT is produced by the reaction of of chloral (or chloral

hydrate) and chlorobenzene in the presence of H2S04' The process
consists of four basic stages: the reaction, separation of DDT,
processing of DDT, and waste control and recovery.
In the two-stage reactor step, two moles of C6HSCl are reacted with
one mole of CCl3CHO with H2S04 as a catalyst to form DDT. In this
step, excess C6HSCl and the spent H2S04 along with the DDT are then
introduced to the DDT separator.
In the DDT separator, the DDT is extracted from the excess
and H2S04' There are two waste recovery streams from this
for H2S04 and one for C6HSCl. The product stream contains
purified and unprocessed DDT.
C6HSCl
step, one
the un-
The DDT processing step consists of several stages. First the DDT
is washed with NaOH and H20. The waste stream from this process con-
tains dilute caustic. The DDT then goes through a crystallizing,
drying, flaking stage from which it passes to either the packaging
or formulation process. At each stage through the final process-
ing there is some recovery of C6H5Cl.
The DDT process contains three waste recovery steps. One step re-
moves the C6HSCl from the separating and processing streams and re-
cycles it to the reaction step. The second step first removes the
acid from the separator stream. This acid is cycled through an acid
recovery plant from which the recovered acid is recycled to the in-
itial reaction step. The waste acid from the recovery plant is then
combined with the dilute caustic in a neutralizer. The final step
is the recovery of waste from clean-up operations.

Input Materials - Chloral and chlorobenzene.

S.
Waste Streams - Wastes resulting from the process include spent
hydrochloric and sulfuric acids, monochloral benzene, sodium mono-
chloral benzene sulfonate, chloral, NaOH caustic washwaters, chloro-
benzene, sulphonic acid, and some product. The waste streams may
21

-------
contain DDT in the 1-5 ppm range with DDE and other related compounds
present in amounts up to four times the DDT level. The pH of the
waste is low and the salt content is high. At one plant, the primary
waste stream containing waste acid and dilute caustic is neutralized
and sent to a Class I dump.

PROCESS NO.3
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) Process
1.
Function - Pentachlorophenol is produced by the simple chlorination
of phenol in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride. The pro-
cess steps consist of a two-stage reaction and HCI recovery.
In the primary reactor, an excess of chlorine is added to phenol to
give the product pentachlorophenol. The wastes from this process
are cycled to the secondary reactor where more phenol is added. The
products of the second reactor are partially chlorinated phenols and
HCI. The phenols are recycled to the primary reactor, and the HCl
is recovered and cycled through a recovery process.
2.
Input Materials - Phenol and chlorine.
3.
Operating Parameters - Initial temperature of phenol, 65 to 130°C;
preferably 105°C.

- Atmospheric pressure.
- Reaction time varies from 5 to 15 hr.

2,4-D Process
(2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid)
1.
Function - 2,4-D is produced and recovered in a three-step process
with each step involving a distinct chemical reaction. First,
chloroacetic acid is combined with sodium hydroxide to obtain
ClCH2COONa. Thi& is combined with neutralized 2,4-dichlorophenol
in a condensation reactor to produce 2,4-D sodium salt. The salt
is then reacted with HCI to form 2,4-D and NaCI. The 2,4-D is then
recovered and cycled to a drying system. The NaCI is also r~covered.
At this same stage of the process, the excess dichlorophenol is re-
covered and returned to the condensation reactor.
There are three waste streams from the 2,4-D recovery step. At one
of the plants manufacturing 2,4-D, dusts are collected and recycled.
Liquid wastes are chemically treated, passed through a special trick-
ling filter, and then to a biological waste treatment plant. Solid
wastes, still bottomE, etc., are incinerated; the combustion gases
are scrubbed; the water is chemically treated, and then sent to a bio-
waste plant.

Waste Streams - Waste streams from chlorinated hydrocarbon herbicides
such as 2,4-D include large amounts of sodium chloride, hydrochloric
acid, some caustic, and organics including solvents, phenols, chloro-
phenols and chlorophenoxy acids. These wastes arise from acidifica-
tion, washing steps, phase separation steps, incomplete yields and
chlorination of the phenolic compounds. A typical waste stream can

Toxaphene Process
1.
Function - Toxaphene is produced by chlorination of a-pinene (or
camphene). The a-pinene is reacted with a catalyst to form toxa-
phene solution. The solution is filtered and stripped to obtain
the toxaphene product. The chlorinator waste HCl gas passes through
a water absorber and the resulting muriatic acid is recovered or
neutralized and sent to wastewater treatment. The toxaphene prod-
uct then goes either to a solution or to a dust formulation step.
Emissions from the dust formulation are vented to a baghouse, with
the captured dust then recycled to the formulation step.

Diene-Based Chlorinated Pesticides
A large group of insecticides known as the diene-based group of chlori-
nated insecticides have been derived from hexachlorocyclopentadiene.
This group includes 13 pesticides: aldrin, dieldrin, heptachlor, chlor-
dane, isodrin, endrin, endosu1fan, isobenzan (telodrin), alodan, bromodan,
kepone, mirex, and pentac. Toxaphene has a similar chemical structure
and is sometimes grouped together with the dienes as the aldrin-toxaphene
group.
The structure of many diene pesticides is of the form:
@r~
where the Cl denotes a saturated chlorinated loop and A and Bare
side chains. A and B are quite often linked together to form another
loop, as indicated for some diene pesticides in Figure 5, which summar-
izes reaction sequences for diene insecticides.
The estimated annual production of diene group
cluded: aldrin (14 million pounds), chlordane
(7 million), endrin (4 million), endosu1fan (2
million), mirex (0.3 million), and kepone (0.1
pesticides in 1972 in-
(20 million), heptachlor
million), dieldrin (0.5
million) .
The production trend is downwards since aldrin
banned by the EPA because of high toxicity and
persistence. The uses of heptachlor have also
dane is being reviewed. Mirex, which received
ants, is also restricted by the EPA.
and dieldrin have been
low degradable, long-term
been callcelled and chI or..
widespread use for fire
The process flow diagram for the diene group is presented in Figure 6.
The hexachlorocyclopentadiene intermediate chemical used for all dienes
is produced from dicyclopentadiene with chlorination (Process 7). Most
of the diene pesticide processes include a Diels-Alder addition reaction
(Process 9) for direct synthesis or for synthesis of intermediate chem-
icals. The diene pesticide processes utilizing these intermediate chem-
icals are also indicated (Processes 10 through 13).

DIENE-BASED CHLORINATED PESTICIDES
PROCESS NO.7
Hexachlorocyclopentadiene Process
1.
Function -Both hexachlorocyclopentadiene and cyclopentadiene are
produced in this process utilizing dicyclopentadiene. This is a
two-step process involving first a separation step and then a chlor-
ination step.
First, the dicyclopentadiene is heated in order to cause separation.
At this point, the cyclopentadiene is either recovered, or intro-
duced to chlorine and sodium hydroxide in the chlorination step.
The solvent for the chlorination is either CC14 or perchloroethyl-
ene. The product is then recovered as pentachlorocyclopentadiene.
The only waste stream in the process is after the chlorination step
and contains NaCl. This is cycled through a waste treatment system.

1.
Function - Hexachlorocyclopentadiene is produced by the chlorina-
tion of ~-pentane in this process. The basic steps are the reac-
tion, a heat exchange, and the product recovery.
The chlorine and ~-pentane are introduced into a burner reactor in
the presence of an anhydrous H2S04 catalyst. The chlorinated prod-
ucts then pass through a heat exchanger and into the product absorp-
tion column. The solvent in the column is either CC14 or perchloro-
ethylene. After the absorption step the stream is passed to a
distillation unit for recovery of the hexachlorocyclopentadiene.

Function - Chlordane is produced by the chlorination of the inter-
mediate chlordene. (See Figure 6, Process No.9). The process
involves three major steps: S02C12 generation, the chlorination,
and product recovery.
In the first step, S02 and C12 are combined to form sulfurylchlor-
ide. An excess of S02C12 is then combined with chlordene in a
chlorination reaction. The resultant product stream contains a mix-
ture of chlordane, S02C12 and S02' The chlordane is removed and
processed, and the S02C12 and S02 are recycled to the S02C12 genera-
tion.

Organophosphate Pesticides
The organophosphate pesticides are hydrocarbon compounds which contain
one or more phosphorous atoms. The typical structure of acyclic organo-
phosphate pesticides is illustrated in Table 4 along with a tabulation
of many pesticides. Similarly, Table 5 presents the structure and tabu-
lated cyclic organophosphate pesticides.
The organophosphates can be separated into three main groups: (a) those
derived from phosphorus pentasulfide (P2SS)' (b) those derived from thio-
phosphoryl chloride (PSC13)' and (c) those derived from phosphorus tri-
chloride (PC13)' The chemical reactions and their relationships for key
pesticides in these three groups are presented in Figures 7, 8, and 9,
respectively.
Most organophosphates are used as insecticides with a few used as herbi-
cides. The acyclic insecticides include methyl parathion at 13 million
pounds and diazinon at 10 million pounds. The cyclic insecticides include
malathion at 2S million pounds. The herbicides include DEF at S million
pounds and merphos at 2 million pounds. The production of organophosphate
pesticides has increased since 1972.
The flow sheets for the organophosphate pesticide processes are presented
by groups in Figures 10 and 11. When similar reactions are involved and
similar chemical structures are formed, the related pesticide processes
are represented by one process block. Note that the pesticides formed
from PSCl3 can also be formed from P2SS by simple chlorination of the
P2SS or the intermediate mercaptan chemicals. The process blocks are
discussed in more detail in the individual process summaries that follow.
Data for several processes within this segment were not available, and

(chloro thio alcohol). In the Chemagro plant at Kansas City, Missouri,
where disulfoton is manufactured, intermediates are also produced.
The diethyl salt and chloro thio ether are combined in the presence
of NaOH in order to maintain caustic conditions. The reaction pro-
ceeds according to the equation:

Function - Diazinon is produced by the reaction of diethylphosphoro-
chloridothionate [(CZH50)2P(S)Cl] and 2-isopropyl-4-methyl-6-hydrox-
pyrimidene with Na2C03' The process consists of two reaction steps,
a purification and recovery step, and the waste treatment system.
The first reaction is a coupling reaction between the pyrimidene
and the (CZHs0)ZP(S)Cl, which is in a solvent such as toluene, benz-
ene or dioxane. The product of this reaction is then combined with
NaZC03 in a purification and filtration step. The product stream
then passes to a stripper and then a filtration step for collection
of the diazinon product.

Carbamate Pesticides
The carbamate family of pesticides includes over 30 pesticides with the
characteristic carbamate carbon-nitrogen structure (-N-C-). This family
can be separated into three groups: (a) the carbamate pesticides; (b)
the thiocarbamate pesticides; and (c) the dithiocarbamate acid salt pest-
icides.
The structure of the major carbamate and thiocarbamate pesticides is:
R 0

as summarized in Table 6.
The dithiocarbamate acid salts have the characteristic carbamate struc-
ture with two sulfur atoms added:

Function - Carbaryl is produced by the reaction of l-naphthol,
COCl2' NaOH, and methylamine. The process consists of two reac-
tion steps, a product recovery step and waste removal.
The first reaction step combines naphthol, NaOH, and COCl2 to form
I-naphthyl-chloroformate and waste NaCl. The naphthyl-chloroformate
is then introduced with NaOH and CE3NHz to the carbaryl unit. This
reaction produces carbaryl and NaCl waste. The reaction chemistry

At one plant, all pesticide-containing wastewater goes to the plant's
secondary waste treatment system and then to a river. This effluent
contains only 0.01 to 1 ppm carbaryl. Toxic vents are either flared
or go to NaOH scrubbers. Nontoxic vents go to a condenser and are
then vented to the atmosphere. Standard hoods are used in the packaging
area and the recovered material is recycled. The heavy residue solid
wastes are burned. One shutdown for cleaning is made per year, but
numerous maintenance clean-ups are made and the washings go to the
process waste treatment system.

The estimated U.S. annual production of triazine pesticides is about
110 million pounds. Atrazine is by far the most important pesticide
in this family with a current U.S. annual production of 95 million
pounds. Atrazine is produced by a continuous process. The inter-
mediate step of forming cyanuric ethylamine is combined in the amina-
tion unit in the continuous process (shown in Process 56 in Figure
16). Other triazine pesticides can be made in the same facility as
atrazine. The growth trend for the triazine pesticides is up slightly
as new appl~cations and mixtures are approved for atrazine.

Cyanuric chloride is reacted with appropriate amino hydrocarbons to ob-
tain the different triazine pesticides. Reaction sequences for selected
triazine pesticides are shown in Figure 15. A general pro~ess flow sheet
for the synthesis of triazine pesticides is presented in Figure 16. The
cyanuric chloride ~7 produced from hydrogen cyanide and chlorine as de-
scribed by Sittig.- The cyanuric chloride unit and all other triazine
pesticide processes include a water wash of the pesticide product.

action of cyanuric chloride, ethylamine, and (CH3)ZCHNHZ' The process
consists of the continuous reaction step, product recovery, and waste
handling.
In the reaction step, the ethylamine, (CH3)ZCHNHZ and a solvent are
added to the cyanuric chloride. The solvent is removed from the
unit and recycled to the process. The product stream is passed
through a filter and on. to the atrazine formulation unit. Here any
additives or solvents are combined with the atrazine and the final
product is then packaged.

5.
Waste Streams - The gaseous waste stream is scrubbed to remove HCI.
Scrubber water as well as the liquid wastes from the filtration and
formulation are treated and then discharged to a river.
Sanitary wastes from the pl~nt are chlorinated before they are dis-
charged. The BOD of the waste going to the river is 500 lb/day at
the 100 million pounds per year production rate.
Dusts are emitted in the formulation and packaging areas. Losses
are estimated to be less than 1%. Fabric filters or wet scrubbers
are employed to control dust emissions.

The production of this small group of four anilide pesticides was esti-
mated at 71 million pounds in 1972 with individual production of alachlor
at 24 million pounds, butachlor at 5 million pounds, propachlor at 35 mil-
lion pounds and propanil at 7 million pounds. Propanil is the oldest
herbi~ide of the group, having been introduced in 1960 by Rohm and Haas.
The other three pesticides have been introduced since 1965 by the MOnsanto
Company (Monsanto also makes propanil). The growth trend in these pesti~
cides is upward with large gains possible for butachlor (introduced in
1969) .

Urea and Uracil Pesticides
The urea and uracil pesticides include a group of about 25 pesticides
used as herbicides. These pesticides can be synthesized from urea as
a common base (as inferred by the classification). However, more fre-
quently, they are synthesized from an isocyanate compound. Phosgene is
used in the synthesis of most urea and uracil pesticides as indicated
in the chemical reaction steps in Figure 19.

Nitrated Hyd~ocarbon Pesticides
The nitrated hydrocarbon pesticides include six pesticides with one or
two of the characteristic nitro (-NOZ) groups in their chemical struc-
ture. These pesticides include the dinitroaromatics (trifluralin, benefin,
dinoseb, and DNOC) and the chlorinated nitro hydrocarbons (nitrofen and
chloropicrin). The dinitroarow~tic pesticides and nitrofen are herbi-
cides. Chloropicrin is an insecticide.

Trifluralin Process
1.
Function - Trifluralin is produced by the reaction of 2,6-dinitro-
l-chloro-4-trifluoromethylbenzene and dipropylamine with sodium
carbamate. In some cases, the 2,6-dinitro-l-chloro-4-trifluoro-
methylbenzene is produced as shown in Figure 22 as a part of the
same manufacturing process.
The trifluralin process consists of the addition of sodium carba-
mate, dipropylamine, and water to the dinitro in CRC13 solvent. The
products of the reaction are first filtered and then decanted to re-
move the saltwater waste. The crude trifluralin is then distilled
in a vacuum still with aromatic naphtha and the resulting streams
are technical grade trifluralin and CRC13' The CRC13 is recycled
to the process.

Function - Benefin, a solid dinitroaniline, is produced by reaction
of chloro-4-trifluoromethylbenzene, HN03/H2S04 and butylethylamine.
The nitration process is the same as for trifluralin. Since bene fin
and trifluralin are both made by Eli Lilly and Company. the nitrated
product (chloro-4-trifluoromethyl-2,6-dinitrobenzene) is probably
fed to both processes. Also, both final processes may use the same

Other Nitrogenous Pesticides
This group of pesticides includes all pesticides containing nitrogen which
have not been covered in the previous carbamate, triazine, anilide, urea,
and nitrated hydrocarbon industrial segments. This group includes deriva-
tives of imines, amines, cyanides, hydrazines, and guanidines. Fifteen
pesticides with production exceeding 1 million pounds in 1972 are included
in this group.
The estimated production in 1972 of other nitrogenous pesticides was 52
million pounds. The imide fungicides were the most popular with cap tan
at 17 million pounds. CDAA, a preemergence herbicide, was next at 6 mil-
lion pounds. Maleic hydrazide, a growth retardant, accounted for 4.5
million pounds.
The -chemical reactions and structures of many of these nitrogenous pest-
icides are presented in Figure 23. The imide pesticides (captafol, captan
and folpet) have a similar reaction of a sulphenyl chloride with an imide
and NaOH. Many other nitrogenous pesticides also have a similar reaction
between a chloride and an amine or other nitrogenous compound (as shown
in Figure 23). No information is available for the reactions to produce
methomyl and benomyl, which are both classified as amate pesticides.
The flow sheet for the imide and other nitrogenous pesticide processes
is shown in Figures 24 and 25. The first two groups of imides and other
pesticides have similar reaction processes with the inputs for each pest-
icide in line across the flow sheet.

Imide Pesticide Process, Cap tan 
1.
Function - Captan is produced by the reaction of sodium hydroxide,
trichloromethylsulphenyl chloride (perchloromethyl mercaptan (PMM)),
and tetrahydrophthalimide (THPI). Both PMM and THPI are manufac-
tured on site.
Captan is produced in a two-step reaction process followed by
several purification steps. The first reaction step is simply the
dissolving of P~l in NaOH to form the sodium salt of PMM and water.
The second reaction step combines this salt and THPI to form captan
and NaCl. The captan is then purified and packaged.
2.

Organoarsenic and Organometallic Pesticides
The organoarsenical and organometallic pesticides are a small group of
abo~t 15 pesticides. The organoarsenical pesticides are herbicides, and
the ~rganometallic pesticides are predominantly mercury and copper fungi-
cides.
The organoarsenic pesticides are all derived from sodium arsenite. DSMA,
the derivative, is also the intermediate chemical for producing Y~MA,
methane arsenic acid and cacodylic acid as indicated in Figure 26. The
structure of the organoarsenic pesticides is:

The main two organomercuric pesticides are formed with benzene from mer-
curic acetate and mercuric oleate to form PMA and phenyl mercuric oleate.
The major organocopper pesticide is formed by reacting naphthenic acids
with soluble copper salts to form copper naphthenates.
The estimated' production in 1972 of organoarsenic pesticides was 32.7
million pounds. MSMA and MAA accounted for 24 million pounds of the
total. The combined organomercuric production was less than 1 million
pounds. The copper naphthenates were the leading organometallic pesti-
cide at 2.2 million pounds. Based on the Tariff Commission data, the
production of organoarsenic pesticides increased from 32.7 to 42.1 mil-
lion pounds from 1972 to 1973. The production has~ncreased signifi-
cantly for each year from 1971 through 1973.
The chemical reactions for all of these pesticides are

ORGANOARSENIC AND ORGANOHETALLIC PESTICIDES
PROCESS NO. 31
DSMA Process
1.
Function - DS~~ is produced by the reaction of arsenic trioxide,
sodium hydroxide, and methyl chloride. The process includes a
two-stage reaction, precipitation and filtration. The reaction
chemistry is as follows:
ASZ03 + 6NaOH
> ZNa3As03 + 3~O
(1)
Na3As03 + CH3Cl
)
(2)
CH3AsO(ONa)2 + NaCl
( DSMA)
In practice, the reaction in Eq. (1) is not initially allowed to go
to completion. A sodium to arsenic ratio of less than 3:1 is used
initially with the balance of the NaOH being added in proportion to
the addition of methyl chloride. An excess of CE3Cl is used in
order to assure a virtually complete conversion of the sodium ar-
senite.
Following the addition of all reactants, the contents are allowed
to "digest" until the reaction ceases. The contents are then cooled
and the DSMA is precipitated by the addition of a suitable liquid
such as isopropyl alcohol.

Microbial and Natural-Occurring Pesticides
Two types of microorganisms pathogenic to insects have been
are in limited commercial use on several crops today, i.e.,
of Bacillus species, and nuclear polyhedrosis viruses.
developed and
preparations
Several commercial products based upon Bacillus thurin~iensis are cur-
rently available on the U.S. market. These products are exempted from
the requirement of a tolerance and are registered for the control of
lepidopterous insects on a considerable number of crops. The main de-
terrent to their use is that growers are familiar with the chemical in-
secticides and their more rapid mode of action, and chemical insecticides
are often less expensive per unit control. Preparations based on Bacillus
popilliae and several other Bacillus species are under commercial develop
ment, but have not yet reached the volume of use of Bacillus thuringien-
sis.
Several nuclear polyhedrosis virus preparations are available in the U.S.
for control of cotton bollworms, Heliothis spp. These products are not
widely used at this time. Problems concerning their large-scale produc-
tion, formulation, storage stability, application timing and methods,
stability after application, and safety precautions remain to be resolved.
Development work is in process on a number of other insect viruses, in-
cluding those of the cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni; the alfalfa looper,
Autographa californica; the Douglas fir tussock moth, Hemerocampa pseudo-
tsugata; and several others.
Bacillus preparations are of interest to growers, especially for the con-
trol of lepidopterous insects on lettuce and cole crops clos~ to harvest
when there may be restrictions on the use of chemical insecticides. 80
far as application timing and technique is concerned, Bacillus prepara-
tions can be used as direct substitutes for chemical insecticides for the
uses for which they are registered, or even combined with chemicals in
the spray tank. On the other hand, the virus preparations known to date
do not work well if they are used in the same manner as chemical insecti-
cides. They normally work best as components of complete integrated pest
management systems.
Microbial pathogens useful for the nonchemical control of weeds or plant
diseases have not been commercially developed to this date.
Natural-occurring pesticides include the pyrethrins and obtusaquinone.
The pyrethrins are derived from the chrysanthemum flower, and obtusa-
quinone is an orange pignlent of the tropical cocobolo tree. Pyrethrin
pesticides have also been synthesized and some of these offer promise
as insect-specific insecticides.
105

-------
The processes for production of the microbial and natural-occurring pes-
ticides are at present considerably different from the chemical reactions
for other pesticides. The microbial pesticides are developed from cul-
tures in fermented solutions as expressed by the following procedure for
Bacillus thuringiensis:

The most popular microbial pesticide is Bacillus thuringiensis with an
estimated production of 1 million pounds in 1972. The total production
of microbial and natural-occurring pesticides was about 2 million pounds
in 1972. The use of these pesticides is expected to increase signifi-
cantly in the next decade as new and more effective derivatives are
formed and as some of the more toxic and persistant chemical pesticides
are forced out by environmental restrictions.

pyrethrin Process
1.
Function - The pyrethrins, derivatives of the chrysanthemum flower,
are produced by an extraction process using methanol and hexane.
The process incorporates two extraction steps, a dewaxing extraction
and a deresining extraction.
First, the methanol and crude pyrethrin are mixed. The wax residue
is recovered as a by-product. The methanol extract is filtered with
charcoal and then stripped and distilled. The distillation yields
methanol and semi-finished pyrethrin. The methanol is recycled to
the process and the pyrethrin is combined with the hexane. The resin
from this step is recovered as a product. The hexane extract is fil-
tered with iono1 and ce1ite and then stripped. The stripping yields
hexane which is recycled and pyrethrin concentrate. The concentrate
is then diluted in kerosene to obtain 20% pyrethrin.

and hexane.

Other Pesticides
Organic pesticides which did not fit well in other operations include
methyl bromide, endothall, bensulide and EXD. These four pesticides are
discussed in this industry segment. Some other organic pesticides may
have been omitted because of low volumes of production (100,000 lb/year
or less). Other large-volume pesticides such as elemental sulfur, sodium
chlorate, and the organotin compounds were excluded because these mate-
rials are products of other industries and are predominantly used for
other purposes. Creosote has also been excluded since it is a natural
product from coking operations at foundries. (Note that creosote is the
number one pesticide with about 1 billion pounds used in 1972 as a wood
preservative for fence posts, railroad ties and telephone poles.)
Methyl bromide is the most popular of these "other" pesticides with an
estimated production in 1972 of 25 million pounds. The other pesticides
also include endothall at 2 million pounds, bensulide at 1 million pounds
and EXD at 0.5 million pounds.
The chemical reactions and structures of the four pesticides (methyl
bromide, endothall, bensulide and EXD) are presented in Figure 29. As
can be seen, none of the reactions or structures arc similar. The pro-
cess flow sheet is presented in Figure 30.

Pesticides
The following revised Pesticides grouping is based upon information received from
producing c()f'1[>i1.nip~ and the 1968 Report (Synthetic Organic Chemicals--U.S. Production and
Sales) of the United States Tariff Commission (issued in July 1970).
Pestici~es dl!d related products are often better known by trade and brand names than
by chemical :13.mr~:",. Maaj' of th~ more common trade and brand names are included (and

16. ABSTRACT The catalog was developed to aid in defining the environmental impacts of 
U.S. industrial activity. Entries for each industry are in consistent format and form 
separate chapters of the catalog. The pesticides industry produces organic chemicals 
used: to control agricultural pests, to disinfect and condition soil, and as plant hor- 
mones. The inorganic chemicals, petroleum products, and creosote used as pesti- 
cides are specifically excluded from this chapter. The industry is discussed in 12 
segments: simple and aromatic chlorinated hydrocarbons; diene-based; organophos - 
phates; carbamates and thiocarbamates; triazines; anilides; ureas and uracils; nitra- 
ted hydrocarbons; other nitrogenous; organoal~senicals and organometallics; micro- 
bial or natural derivatives; and others. Thirteen chemical trees, 17 process flow 
sheets, and 37 process descriptions characterize the industry. For each process 
des cription, available data is presented on input materials, operating parameters '
utility requirements, and waste streams. Related information, provided as appen- 
dices, includes company, product, and raw material data.
