12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATIONS, until this day, no evaluation has been made on the mixture
Until this day, no evaluation has been made on the mixture
12.1 – Ecotoxicity
Ammonium nitrate:
Toxicity for fishes: mainly depending on the real acidity value (pH) and the kind of fish
LC50 = 74 mg/l/48 h (Cyprinus carpio)
Toxicity for water flea:
Ec50 = 555 mg/l/ (Daphnia magna)

Ec50 = 83 mg/l/ (Scenedesmus quadricauda)
Fuel/gasoil: toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long- term adverse effects in the aquatic environment
12.2 - Persistence and degradability
The ammonium nitrate is a substance existing in an ionogene shape and also in the natural life cycles (for example
nitrogen) and can easily transform in other elements of these life cycles. Nevertheless, see § 12.5 This fuel/gazole is
biodegradable
12.3 - Potential of bioaccumulation
The potential bioaccumulation of the mixture is very low because those of the raw material is also very low

Excessive supply of ammonium nitrate can bring eutrophisation of water and over fertilization of the ground. The handling
of this substance must be imperatively carefully made. By care in handling this product and a using complying prescriptions, there
will be no harmful effect possible
