Docket: EPA-HQ-OPPT-2016-0724 Page 3 of 14 ------- MANUFACTURING, PROCESSING, DISTRIBUTION, USE, AND DISPOSAL 1. Manufacturing (Including Importing) Decabromodiphenyl ether (deca BDE) is a member of a class of brominated flame retardants that are added to plastics, textiles, and other materials to retard combustibility. When fire occurs, these polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) utilize vapor-phase chemical reactions that interfere with the combustion process, thus delaying ignition and inhibiting the spread of fire. These characteristics have promoted the widespread use of PBDEs in textiles, flexible polyurethane foams used in upholstery stuffing for furniture and car seats, electronic components, electrical components, and plastics used in the casings of televisions, personal computers, and other electronic equipment. [EPA: An Exposure Assessment of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (2010)] For the 2012 Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) period, data indicates that 5 sites manufactured (including imported) deca BDE in the United States1,2. The total volume (in lbs) of deca BDE manufactured (including imported) in the United States in 2010 was 51,008,002; in 2011:18,110,827. However, the principle domestic manufacturers and importers of commercially available deca BDE agreed to voluntarily phase out domestic manufacture and import of the chemical no later than December 31, 2013. EPA believed that other domestic manufacturers and importers of deca BDE would also cease their activities by that date. Preliminary data for the 2016 CDR period indicates that 4 sites reported domestic manufacture or import of deca BDE. The total volume of deca BDE manufactured (including imported) in the United States was 16,696,951 lbs in 2012, between 1,000,000 and 10,000,000 lbs in 2013, between 100,000 and 500,000 lbs in 2014, and less than 25,000 lbs in 2015. Actual production volume for years 2013 through 2015 is claimed as confidential business information. Data from the 2015 Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) shows a total of 211,498 lbs of total on- and off-site reported releases of deca BDE from 29 sites. Of these, 1 site reported production, 2 reported import, and 23 reported processing of deca BDE. 1 Manufacturers (including importers) are required to report under CDR if they meet certain production volume thresholds, 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 2 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 Page 4 of 14 ------- Manufacturing Process Commercial production of PBDEs began in 1976. Each commercial formulation is manufactured through the chemical reaction of bromine with diphenyl oxide (also known as diphenyl ether) in the presence of an inorganic catalyst (e.g., AICU). The amount of bromine and the time allotted for the chemical reaction control the extent of bromination on the diphenyl ether molecule. The stepwise addition of bromine causes the formation of lower- to higher-brominated congeners until the total desired amount of bromination is obtained. The molecular backbone consists of two phenyl rings interconnected by an oxygen atom. There are 10 positions whereby a bromine atom can substitute a hydrogen atom on the molecule with the possibility of 10 homologue groups identified by the preface mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, hexa-, hepta-, octa-, nona-, and deca DBE. Commercial formulations of deca BDE have a bromine content of about 83%. [EPA 2010] 2. Processing For the 2015 TRI reporting year, the following types of facilities reported processing3 deca BDE. As a formulation component: All Other Rubber Product Manufacturing (NAICS 326299) Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding, And Alloying (NAICS 331420) Other Communication and Energy Wire Manufacturing (NAICS 335929) Custom Compounding of Purchased Resins (NAICS 325991) All Other Plastics Product Manufacturing (NAICS 326199) Nonwoven Fabric Mills (NAICS 313230) Fabric Coating Mills (NAICS 313320) Plastics Material and Resin Manufacturing (NAICS 325211) Adhesive Manufacturing (NAICS 325520) Urethane and Other Foam Product (except Polystyrene) Manufacturing (NAICS 326150) As an article component: Other Communication and Energy Wire Manufacturing (NAICS 335929) All Other Rubber Product Manufacturing (NAICS 326299) All Other Plastics Product Manufacturing (NAICS 326199) Fabric Coating Mills (NAICS 313320) Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding, And Alloying (NAICS 331420) 3 The term "process" means the preparation of a chemical substance or mixture, after its 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 (B) as part of an article containing the chemical substance or mixture. http://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim(a>titlel5/chapter53&edition=prelim Page 5 of 14 ------- 3. Use - Products and Articles Deca BDE is an additive flame retardant. Additive flame retardants are incorporated into polymers via physical mixing, and are not chemically bound to the polymer. As a result, the polymer/additive mixture is less susceptible to combustion than the polymer alone. Since additive flame retardants can be incorporated up until the final stages of production, it is usually easier to use additive flame retardants than reactive flame retardants. [EPA: An Alternatives Assessment for the Flame Retardant Decabromodiphenyl Ether (DecaBDE) (2014), available at https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-05/documents/decabde final.pdfl The primary use of deca BDE is in high impact polystyrene-based products, and in the manufacture of rubber and plastics. The three major product categories in which deca BDE has been used as a flame retardant are: textiles, electronic equipment, and building and construction materials. Articles treated with deca BDE are used in the home, in business settings, and in the transportation sector. Articles often treated with deca BDE include carpets, upholstery fabric, back coatings, cushions, mattresses, and tents. Deca BDE is also found in plastics used as components in electrical appliances and equipment such as stereos, computers, televisions, circuit boards, casings, and cable insulation. Other specified uses in the transportation and construction sector are in the fabrics of automobiles, aircrafts, and in wood used as building materials. [WHO: Brominated diphenyl ethers (1994), available at: http://www.inchem.Org/documents/ehc/ehc/ehcl62.htm#SubSectionNumber:l.l.21 In addition to the facilities that reported processing deca BDE, for the 2015 TRI reporting year, facilities in the following NAICS codes reported using deca BDE as a chemical processing aid, a manufacturing aid, or as an ancillary or other use: 326130 - Laminated Plastics Plate, Sheet (except Packaging), and Shape Manufacturing 562211 - Hazardous Waste Treatment and Disposal (Primary) Under its Children's Safe Product Act, the State of Washington has received reports of children's products that contain deca BDE, including bibs, bracelets and necklaces, sportswear, undergarments, socks and shoes, craft materials, blankets, and dolls and other toys. [State of Washington Department of Ecology, Children's Safe Product Act Reported Data, last accessed March 29, 2017. Available at https://fortress.wa.gov/ecy/cspareporting/ 1 EPA identified the following types of products [and articles] based on a search of available sources for products containing deca BDE.
