e (1) Describe the nature oCthe reaction or process The initial step in the process is the conversion of natural gas to synthesis gas (a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen) . The synthesis gas is then subjected to high temperature over a catalyst where it undergoes the Fischer-Tropsch reaction to produce a mixture of lowmolecular weight alkenes and alkanes . This mixture is then subjected to a first hydrotreatment that uses a catalyst to reformulates the mixture of alkenes and alkanes to produce a newmixture of compounds made up of higher alkanes (paraffins), cycloalkenes and aromatics . A second hydrotreatment of the paraffin, cycloalkene and aromatics mixture further reformulates the hydrocarbons to yield a mixture of predominantly C10 to C13 branched paraffins with a very minor amount of residual aromatics and n-alkanes . The steps in the process are presented diagrammatically below .

# OPTIONAL POLLUTION PREVENTION INFORMATION To claim information in the following section as confidential circle or bracket the specific information that you claimas confidential . In this section you may provide information not reported elsewhere in this formregarding your efforts to reduce or minimize potential risks associated with activities surrounding manufacturing, processing, use and disposal of the PMN substance. Please include new information pertinent to pollution prevention, including source reduction, recycling activities and safer processes or products available due to the new chemical substance. Source reduction includes the reduction in the amount or toxicity of chemical wastes by technological modification, process and procedure modification, product reformulation, rawmaterials substitution, and/'or inventory control . Recycling refers to the reclamation of useful chemical components fromwastes that would otherwise be treated or released as air emissions or water discharges, or land disposal . Descriptions of pollution prevention, source reduction and recycling should emphasize potential risk reduction subsequent to compliance with existing regulatory requirements and can be either quantitative or qualitative. The EPA is interested in the information to assess overall net reductions in toxicity or environmental releases and exposures, not the shifting of risks to other environmental media or nonenvironmental areas (e.g., occupational or consumer exposure) . In addition. information on the relative cost or performance characteristics of the PNN substance to potential alternatives may be provided . r111 information provided in this section will be taken into consideration during the reviewof this substance. See Ph1N Instructions Manual and Pollution Prevention Guidance manual for guidance and examples.

PMN Page 11 ; Page 18 of 29 Optional Pollution Prevention Information (Continued) Describe the expected net benefits, such as ( I ) an overall reduction in risk to human health or the environment ; (2) a reduction in the volume manufactured; (3) a reduction in the generation of waste materials through recycling, source reduction or other means; (4) a reduction in potential toxicity or human exposure and/or environmental release: (5) an increase in product performance, a decrease in the cost of production and/or improved operation efficiency of the new chemical substance in comparison to existing chemical substances used in similar application; or (6) the extent to which the new chemical substance may be a substitute for an existinQ substance that poses a areater overall risk to human health or the environment . The new substance is a non-odorous substitute for kerosene . Its use will result in a significantly reduced exposure to aromatics, because this material does not contain the aromatics that kerosene does . Therefore, the overall risk to human health and the environment will be reduced.

Combustible Liquid. Flammable when exposed to heat or flame. Can react with oxidizing agents. Vapours may formexplosive mixtures with air. Vapours may travel to sources of ignition and flash back. Vapours are heavier than air and will spread along the ground and collect in lowor confined areas. Vapour explosion hazard indoors, outdoors and in sewers. Run-off to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Liquid is lighter than water . Combustion will produce COand other asphyxiants. Fire could produce irritating or poisonous gases. Runoff fromfire-control or dilution water could cause pollution . Vapours and mists may cause irritation of the nose and throat . Inhalation causes coughing, distress and rapidly developing pulmonary oedema . It may also cause a burning sensation in the chest, headache, nausea, weakness, restlessness, Inc-ordination, confusion, vomiting, diarrhea . 

## In poorly ventilated areas or confined spaces, unconsciousness and asphyxiation may result . Prolonged or overexposure may result in absorption of potentially harmful amounts of material .

### Small fires: Dry chemical, C02, water fog or alcohol loam . Large fires: Water spray, fog or alcohol foamis recommended. Move container fromfire area if you can do it without risk_ Cool containers that are exposed to flames with water from the side until well after the fire is out. Stay away from ends of tanks. For massive fire in cargo area, use unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles; if this is impossible, withdrawfromarea and let fire burn. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety device or any discolouration of tank due to fire. Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of lowareas . Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and structural firefighter's protective clothing will provide limited protection. 

## 6 . Accidental Release Measures Spills or Leaks: Contain (avoid spillage fromentering drains or water courses) Restrict access to area. Provide adequate protective equipment and ventilation_ Remove sources of heat and flame . Stay upwind and out of low areas. Contaminated soil to be excavated and transported to a hazardous materials waste disposal site. Notify Environmental and Safety officials to ensure all relevant reporting and control methods are complied with. Eliminate all ignition sources. No smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area. All equipment used when handling the product, must be grounded . Do not touch or walk through spilled material . Stop leak if you can do so without risk. Prevent entry into water ways, sewers, basements or confined areas. A vapour suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapours . Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers . Use clean, non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material . Water spray may reduce vapour-, but it may not prevent ignition in closed spaces Small Spills: Take up with sand or other inert material . Collect and deposit in sealed containers for disposal . Lar e Spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal . 7. Handling And Storage Storage in the same roomor space is prohibited with the following classes: Separation of at least 3 metres fromCorrosives is recommended . Fire separation of at least 5 metres or 4-hour fire resistant wall fromthe following classes is recommended: Flammable Gases Flammable solids Poison Spontaneously Combustible Dangerous when wet The spaces should be at least 10 metres apart from the following classes: Explosives Poisonous Gases Radioactive Oxidizing Agents Organic Peroxides Avoid contact with strong oxidizers . Store in tightly closed, containers in a welt-ventilated area. . Smoking, heat, sparks and open flames are prohibited in the storage area. Avoid prolonged inhalation of mist or vapour . Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with the skin_ Wash thoroughly after handling. 

## 8 . Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Occupational Exposure L imits 100 mg/M3 Controls Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry place, away fromsources of heat or ignition. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment when conditions warrant . Do not get in eyes . Do not breathe vapours_ Wash thoroughly after handling . Immediately remove and launder contaminated clothing before re-use. Have a safety shower/eye wash fountain readily available in the immediate work area . The control measures appropriate for a particular work site depend on howthis material is used and extent of exposure. The best protection is to enclose operations and/or provide local exhaust ventilation at the site of chemical release. Use a non-sparking, grounded ventilation system separate from other exhaust ventilation systems. Exhaust directly to the outside. Supply
