1,4-Dioxane (/ d aɪ ˈ ɒ k s eɪ n /) is a heterocyclic organic compound, classified as an ether. It is a colorless liquid with a faint sweet odor similar to that of diethyl ether . The compound is often called simply dioxane because the other dioxane isomers ( 1,2- and 1,3- ) are rarely encountered.
It is possible and technically acceptable to refer to the same parameter in different ways that may appear to suggest a variation in the standard required. For example, nitrite may be measured as nitrite ion or expressed as N. A standard of "nitrite as N" set at 1.4 mg/L equals a nitrite ion concentration of 4.6 mg/L.
Central Florida’s 1,4-dioxane contamination has caught the attention of Yale University researchers. They want to hear concerns from residents who have been drinking water supplied by public ...
The South Burlington Wastewater Treatment Plant, where the slug of 1,4-dioxane made its way into the Haw, has a capacity of 12 million gallons a day and averages seven to eight million gallons daily.
People wonder about the health risks they face – from driving on Interstate 4, to sun exposure, to consuming alcohol, to eating bacon and more – but drinking tap water usually isn’t one of them.
1,4-Dioxane Diethylene glycol dimethyl ether Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa).
DEQ’s limits on PFAS are being opposed by the NC Chamber, while Triad-area utilities are opposed to 1,4-dioxane limits in surface water.
Dioxane tetraketone (or 1,4-dioxane-2,3,5,6-tetrone) is an organic compound with the formula C 4 O 6. It is an oxide of carbon (an oxocarbon), which can be viewed as the fourfold ketone of dioxane. It can also be viewed as the cyclic dimer of oxiranedione (C 2 O 3), the hypothetical anhydride of oxalic acid.
