In this process, organic feedstocks are dispersed in liquid, anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, and an electric current is passed through the solution, causing the hydrogen atoms on the molecule to be replaced with fluorine. The predominant components of the products created by this process have the same carbon skeletal arrangement as the feedstock used, but with all of the hydrogen atoms replaced by fluorine. However, fragmentation and rearrangement of the carbon skeleton can also occur and significant amounts of cleaved, branched and cyclic structures may be formed. The degree of fluorination of the organic feedstock is also dependent upon the specific carbon chain length of the feedstock and parameters of the ECF process such as electrical current and the length of time the process is run. It is possible to synthesize fully fluorinated or perfluoroorganic molecules where all of the hydrogen atoms of the hydrocarbon feedstock have been replaced by fluorine atoms. Using these perfluoroorganic molecules as basic building blocks, unique chemistries can be created by further reactions with functionalized hydrocarbon molecules. 3M has produced sulfonyl based fluorochemicals commercially for over 40 years using the ECF process. A basic building block of such products and the highest production volume fluorochemical 3M manufactures is perfluorooctanesulfonyl fluoride (POSF). The starting feedstock for this reaction is 1-octanesulfonyl fluoride. (Reaction 1) Reaction 1 C8H17S02F + 17 HF 1-Octanesulfonyl fluoride Energy -------- > C8Fi7S02F + 17 H2 ECF Perfluorooctanesulfonyl fluoride The electrochemical fluorination process yields about 35%-40% straight chain (normal) POSF, and a mixture of biproducts and waste of unknown and variable composition comprised of the following: 1) higher and lower straight-chain homologs, i.e., n-CnF2n+iS02F, e.g., C6Fi3S02F, C7F15S 0 2F, C9Fi9S02F which comprise about 7% of the process output 2) branched-chain, perfluoroalkylsulfonyl fluorides with various chain lengths, about 18-20% o f the output 3) straight-chain, branched, and cyclic (non-functional) perfluoroalkanes and ethers, which comprise about 20-25% of the output 4) "tars" (high molecular weight fluorochemical byproducts) and other byproducts, including molecular hydrogen, which comprise about 10-15% of the output. Because of slight differences in process conditions, raw materials, and equipment, the mixture produced by the electrochemical fluorination process varies somewhat from lot-to-lot and from plantto-plant. The product that results from electrochemical fluorination is thus not a pure chemical but rather a mix of isomers and homologues. The commercialized POSF derived products are a mixture of approximately 70% linear POSF derivatives and 30% branched POSF derived impurities. ' CAS Number 24448-09-7 3M Company 3 During production, byproducts and waste products are formed. The volatile waste products, such as perfluoromethane, have been vented to the atmosphere in the past, but plans are being implemented to capture and destroy these releases by thermal oxidation over the next few years. The tars have been landfilled in a hazardous waste landfill in the past, but are all currently being incinerated at an in-house or external hazardous waste incinerator. The byproducts, many of which are incompletely fluorinated with hydrogen atoms still present, can be recycled back into the ECF process or are partially degraded in stabilization processes and discharged to controlled, in-house, wastewater treatment systems. The treatment sludge associated with the ECF process has been either landfilled or land-incorporated in the past, but all of this treatment sludge is being landfilled off-site since early 1998. POSF is itself a commercially viable product, but is primarily an important intermediate in the synthesis of substances used in many other 3M fluorochemical products. The majority is used to produce functionally derivatized fluorochemicals and high molecular weight polymeric products. Unique chemistries can be created by derivatizing POSF through the sulfonyl fluoride moiety of the molecule using conventional hydrocarbon reactions. POSF is reacted with methyl or ethyl amine to produce either N-methyl or N-ethylperfluorooctanesulfonamide (MeFOSA or EtFOSA). Some of the MeFOSA and EtFOSA is isolated to be used as intermediates to be reacted to form other materials. The majority of the MeFOSA and EtFOSA is not isolated and subsequently reacted with ethylene carbonate to form either N-methyl or N-ethylperfluorooctane sulfonamido ethanol. These are the principal building blocks of the 3M product lines. 137 CAS Number 24448-09-7 3M Company The following block flow diagram describes the process discussed above.

SITE RELEASE AND TRANSFER INFORMATION FOR TRI CHEMICALS 5 Not applicable. V. SITE RELEASE AND TRANSFER INFORMATION FOR NON-TRI CHEMICALS While analytical methods have improved over time, large variability still exists for certain matrices and compounds, so data available for this report is mostly of a qualitative nature. Although limited monitoring data exists, most emission and waste estimates are based upon process models and engineering calculations. Engineering calculations, however, have limitations with respect to fluorochemicals because fluorochemical losses were not always included in the analysis of each intermediate step. The accuracy of the emissions data submitted varies due to several factors. Batch process systems are difficult to measure due to quickly changing process conditions, venting pressures and difficulty in isolating processes to take measurements. Additionally, the unique characteristics of these compounds cause them to behave differently from conventional compounds, and physical chemical data properties are not available for all intermediate reaction steps in the past. A. ON-SITE AIR RELEASES ALL PLANTS - Fugitive emissions may occur from vacuum charging from drums, sampling from reactors, drumming of product/intermediate, flaking monomer, drying operations.

For privacy considerations, please do not include any personal identifiers such as a worker's name or social security number with any data submitted to EPA. There is no chemical-specific personal industrial hygiene monitoring data or area/source monitoring data for this specific material at this facility. For most areas of the facility, recent qualitative assessment of potential exposure to this material under 3M's ongoing industrial hygiene program indicates a low exposure potential to this material. Each 3M plant that produces sulfonated fluorochemicals has an industrial hygienist on staff and is supported by a corporate industrial hygiene group. 3M's industrial hygiene program focuses on task-based exposure assessment and control. Exposures are identified and assessed qualitatively and/or quantitatively. Qualitative assessments are performed by an industrial hygienist. Quantitative assessments include task-based personal sampling for certain, specific fluorochemicals and/or source or area sampling. The results of the assessments support decisions on exposure control. Engineering controls are preferred, but personal protective equipment may be used on an interim basis or when effective engineering control is not feasible. 4. Briefly describe the engineering controls used to minimize exposure to this chemical: Materials are transferred using closed piping (where possible) from reactor vessels to other containers. Vacuum charging of materials from drums is a standard practice. Positionable local exhaust ventilation hoods are situated at significant point sources such as at drum bungs when drumming. General room air provides for dilution of airborne materials. 5. Briefly list the personal protective equipment your workers regularly wear to prevent exposure of this chemical: Process operating standards list the respirator (e.g., supplied air, organic vapor cartridge with particulate prefilter, or particulate filtering), glove by elastomer (e.g., neoprene or nitrile), chemical protective clothing (e.g., 2-piece PVC rainsuit), eye protection (e.g., chemical splash goggles with or without full faceshield depending on type of respirator used) to be used by the employee when the task involves exposure to a particular fluorochemical material.

For privacy considerations, please do not include any personal identifiers such as a worker's name or social security number with any data submitted to EPA. Personal sampling for these materials is currently (late 1999 to present) done using OSHA Versatile Sampler tubes with XAD-4 resin and mixed cellulose ester or glass fiber prefilter. Sample analysis is by LC-MS. Previous sampling had employed silica gel acid mist tubes with GC-ECD analysis. See attached table for air sample results. There has been area/source air monitoring data and/or surface wipe sampling data collected for this material at the plant. Area/source sample results and/or surface wipe sample results are used to identify areas with employee exposure potential as part of exposure assessment under 3M's industrial hygiene program and are not measurements of actual employee exposures. Hence, they are not included with this submission. Prior to 1999, these samples were considered to be semivalidated. Surfaces in production and administration areas were sampled in 1998. A glass fiber filter wetted with methyl alcohol was wiped inside a 10 cm x 10 cm square with analysis by LC-MS. Results indicated the presence of these materials on floors and equipment surfaces in production areas. This resulted in improvements in Hazard Communication practices, personal hygiene emphasis, personal protective equipment emphasis, and several engineering and administrative changes. The sample results of any air monitoring are compared to 3M's voluntary exposure guideline (EG) of 0.1 mg/m3 (milligrams of fluorochemical per cubic meter of air) for various fluorochemical compounds, including compounds covered in this submittal. The EG is an 8-hour time-weighted average (TWA) personal breathing zone exposure chosen to minimize potential for uptake. Each 3M plant that produces sulfonated fluorochemicals has an industrial hygienist on staff and is supported by a corporate industrial hygiene group. 3M's industrial hygiene program focuses on task-based exposure assessment and control.

Briefly describe the engineering controls used to minimize exposure to this chemical: Materials are transferred using closed piping (where possible) from reactor vessels to other containers. Vacuum charging of materials from drums is a standard practice. Local exhaust ventilation hoods are situated at significant point sources such as at drum bungs when drumming. Some equipment, such as the flaker, is equipped with local exhaust ventilation. General room air provides for dilution of airborne materials. Operator control rooms are segregated from process areas and provided separate room air ventilation. 5. Briefly list the personal protective equipment your workers regularly wear to prevent exposure of this chemical: Specific personal protective equipment is indicated on written operating procedures used by process operators. Respiratory protection: Tasks with significant exposure potential (charging, drumming, some maintenance tasks) are performed using positive pressure, pressure demand full face supplied air respirators. Tasks with moderate exposure potential (short term sampling from taps or drums, and some maintenance tasks) are performed using full face air-purifying respirators with organic vapor cartridges and P I00 prefilters. Hand protection: All tasks identified as having potential for hand contact require neoprene (Scorpio) or nitrile industrial gloves. Body protection: Exposure significant tasks use one or two-piece PVC suits. Aprons may be worn for some low exposure potential tasks such as sampling. Foot protection: Tasks identified as posing a significant foot exposure potential require chemical resistant boots. Comments: (This section is available to clarify the responses given. Attach additional pages if desired.) Current exposures are expected to be less than those measured in the recent past. Significant sources of exposure have been identified and eliminated. In 1998 an extensive area air sampling of the production areas was performed. Areas with higher levels of airborne materials were investigated further to identify sources. These sources, which include the flaking equipment, are in the process of being eliminated or reduced through replacement with better ventilated equipment. In addition, the ventilation system in the primary production building (3) is being upgraded. The fluorochemical hazard communication program was improved upon in 1998. This has resulted in improved exposure avoidance behaviors among production employees and better use of personal protective equipment requirements. |51 CAS Number 24448-09-7 3M Company 19 Additional hand wash facilities have been installed in primary process buildings.
