On the Freshwater Ecotoxicity and Biodegradation Properties of Some Common Ionic Liquids
Abstract
Ecotoxicological tests, using OECD standard methods on some ionic liquids, have revealed that several have very high toxicity towards freshwater algae and the freshwater invertebrate Daphnia magna (∼10 4 −10 6 times more ecotoxic than methanol for the worse cases). In addition these compounds show high levels of toxicity to the microorganisms responsible for biodegradation in the environment. These materials have a significant potential to damage the aquatic ecosystem if released into water. We conclude that considerable care should be exercised in the choice of ionic liquids to be used in chemical processes at design stage and that contamination of aqueous effluent streams by these materials should be avoided wherever practicable.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
