August 2017 Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention U.S. EPA Preliminary Information on Manufacturing, Processing, Distribution, Use, and Disposal: Hexachlorobutadiene CASRN: 87-68-3 CI CI CI CI August 2017 Support document for Docket EPA-HQ-OPPT-2016-0738 Page 1 of 13 ------- This document provides a preliminary public summary of available information collected by EPA's Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) in the Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention (OCSPP) on the manufacturing (including importing), processing, distribution incommerce, use, and disposal of this chemical. This is based on existing data available to EPA, including information collected under the Chemical Data Reporting rule, Toxics Release Inventory (if available), information from other Agency databases, other U.S. Government agencies, publicly available information from states, and a review of published literature. In addition, the document includes information reported to EPA by producers and users of the chemical in the United States and in othercountries. This preliminary use information and any additional use information received in the docket by December 9, 2017, will inform efforts to identify, under section 6(h)(1)(B) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), whether exposure to this chemical is likely, under the conditions of use, either to the environment, the general population, or to a potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulation identified by EPA. The information will also inform any risk management efforts following the exposure and use assessment under TSCA section 6(h)(1)(B). Mention of trade names in this document does not constitute endorsement by EPA. To verify products or articles containing this chemical currently in commerce, EPA has identified several examples. Any lists are provided for informational purposes only. EPA and its employees do not endorse any ofthe products or companies. This document does not contain confidential business information (CBI).

Docket: EPA-HQ-OPPT-2016-0738 Page 3 of 13 ------- MANUFACTURING, PROCESSING, DISTRIBUTION, USE AND DISPOSAL 1. Manufacturing (Including Importing) Hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD) is primarily generated as a by-product of the manufacture of chlorinated hydrocarbons, particularly perchloroethylene, trichloroethylene, and carbon tetrachloride, but it can also be produced during magnesium manufacturing via electrolysis1,2- According to recent reports to the UN Environmental Programme, HCBD does not appear to be intentionally manufactured in Europe, Japan, Canada, or the United States. Intentional production in Europe ceased as early as the late 1970s; in various other parts of the world, production of HCBD has been restricted or banned in subsequent years; however, the chemical continues to be manufactured as a byproduct of chemical manufacturing3. No data was submitted by manufacturers (including importers) under the Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) rule for the 2016 reporting period4,5. For the 2015 Toxics Release Inventory (TRI), 14 facilities submitted reports for HCBD6. Of these, 9 facilities reported manufacture in the United States, 0 reported import, 5 reported processing, and 9 reported other uses7.

English.pdf 3 United Nations - Open-ended Working Group of the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal, Draft technical guidelines on the environmentally sound management of wastes consisting of containing or contaminated with hexachlorobutadiene (Meeting in Nairobi, Kenya: United Nations Environmental Programme, 2016). 4 Manufacturers (including importers) are required to report under CDR if they meet certain production volumethresholds, generally 25,000 lb or more of a chemical substance at any single site. Reporting is triggered if the annual reporting threshold is met during any of the calendar years since the last principal reporting year. In general, the reporting threshold remains 25,000 lb per site. However, a reduced reporting threshold (2,500 lb) now applies to chemical substances subject to certain TSCA actions, https://www.epa.gov/chemical-data-reporting/how-report-under-chemical-data-reporting 5 Manufacture in the context of CDR means to manufacture, produce, or import for commercial purposes. Manufacture includes the extraction, for commercial purposes, of a component chemical substance from a previously existing chemical substance or complex combination of chemical substances. (40 CFR 711.3) https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2015- 12/documents/cdr fact sheet importers final dec2015 O.pdf Similarly, the term "manufacture" in the context of TRI means to produce, prepare, compound, or import an EPCRA Section 313 chemical. The term "manufacture" also includes coincidental production of an EPCRA Section 313 chemical (e.g., as a byproduct or impurity) as a result of the manufacture, processing, otherwise use or disposal of another chemical or mixture of chemicals, https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/documents/rv2012rfi.pdf SA facility must report to the TRI program if it meets all three of the following criteria: 1) is in a specific industry sector, 2) employs 10 or more full-time equivalent employees, and 3) manufactures, processes, or otherwise uses a TRI-listed chemical in quantities above applicable threshold levels for a given chemical in a given year, https://www.epa.gov/toxics- release-inventorv-tri-program/basics-tri-reporting 7 The term "process" in the context of CDR and TRI means the preparation of a chemical substance or mixture, afterits manufacture, for distribution in commerce (A) in the same form or physical state as, or in a different form or physical state from, that in which it was received by the person so preparing such substance or mixture, or Page 4 of 13 ------- facilities that reported manufacturing and 4 that reported processing are in the chemical manufacturing industry (NAICS codes 325199, 325180, and 325211). One facility that reported processing and 3 that reported use are in the hazardous waste industry (NACIS codes 562211 and 562213). Two facilities that reported use are in the cement manufacturing industry (NACIS code 327310). The facilities generated 10,619,094 lbs. of waste including 2,311 lbs. released to air and 10,278,244 lbs. treated on site. For more information, see Unit 6. Manufacturing Process Various methods for HCBD synthesis have been described in two patents8,9. HCBD can be directly synthesized through the chlorination of butadiene or butane or produced as a by-product of chlorinated hydrocarbon manufacturing, including perchloroethylene, trichloroethylene, and carbon tetrachloride. It appears that HCBD, generated as a by-product during the synthesis of other compounds of interest, may be recovered or recycled for commercial purposes10. 2. Processing HCBD may be processed for use as: Plastic additives11 Protective coatings12 Prepared in solvent as analytical standards13 Part of the recovery system for chlorine containing gases at chlorine plants14 Chemical intermediates in the production of rubber, chlorofluorocarbons, and lubricants15 (B) as part of an article containing the chemical substance or mixture. http://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim(Stitlel5/chapter53&edition=prelim The term "otherwise use" under TRI means any use of an EPCRA Section 313 chemical, including an EPCRA Section 313 chemical contained in a mixture or other trade name product or waste, that is not covered by the terms manufacture or process. See the definition of "otherwise use" for additional details on applicability of otherwise use with regardto disposal, stabilization, and treatment for destruction, https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2016- 01/documents/ry 2015 tri reporting forms and instructions.pdf 8 http://www.google.com.na/patents/US2454820 9 http://www.google.com/patents/US2034292 10 Lecloux A. 2004: Hexachlorbutadiene - Sources, environmental fate and risk characterization, Science Dossier, Euro Chlor. http://www.eurochlor.org/media/14939/sd5-hexachlorobutadiene-final.pdf 11 Chemstock, Hexachloro-l,3-Butadiene (Hackettstown, New Jersey: Chemstock, 2017). http://www.chemstock.com/product/hexachloro-13-butadiene/ 12 State of Washington - Department of Ecology, Children's Safe Product Act Reported Data (Lacey, Washington: State of Washington, 2017). https://fortress.wa.gov/ecv/cspareporting/Reports/ReportViewer.aspx?ReportName=ChemicalReportBvCASNumber Select CAS Number: 87-68-3. 13 Sigma-Aldrich, Hexachloro-l,3-butadiene PESTANALฎ, analytical standard (St. Louis: Sigma Aldrich Co.
