0 Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) CAS No. 67-68-5
•
•
Quantity of DMSO Generated:
The hydrolysis solution is composed of 30% DMSO, 60% Water; and 10% KOH on a weight ba;
The density of the solution is approximately 91bs. per gallon.
Total yearly consumption of solution is 15 gallons.
On a weight basis, this is equivalent to 135 lbs of solution (15 gal. x 9 lbs./gal.)
Therefore, the total amount of possible DMSO emitted is 40 lbs (135 lbs. x 30% = 40 lbs.)
40 lbs./yr. of DMSO is equivalent to 0.020 tons/yr. of DMSO emitted.
