1,4-Dioxane is a useful solvent in chemistry. It is synthesized by dehydration of ethylene glycol in anti-freeze with a catalytic amount of sulfuric acid found as a liquid drain opener. After the first reaction, impurities are condensed and water is removed with sodium hydroxide, which can be found as a solid drain opener, and the product is re-distilled. A small quantity of dioxane is then burned. Dioxane is a flammable, carcinogenic organic solvent. Steps should be taken to minimize all exposure, including gloves and good ventilation. Open flames should be extinguished before performing this experiment. Dioxane can form explosive peroxides during storage, and the standard caution towards this issue is necessary. The reaction seen here is: 2*C2H6O2 (l) → C4H8O2 (g) + 2*H2O (g) (Catalyzed by H2SO4 (l)) Dioxane Synthesis...

www.washingtonpost.com More than half the baby shampoo, lotion and other infant care products analyzed by a health advocacy group were found to contain trace amounts of two chemicals that are believed to cause cancer, the organization said yesterday. Some of the biggest names on the market, including Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo and Baby Magic lotion, tested positive for 1,4-dioxane or formaldehyde, or both, the nonprofit Campaign for Safe Cosmetics reported. The chemicals, which the Environmental Protection Agency has characterized as probable carcinogens, are not intentionally added to the products and are not listed among ingredients on labels. Instead, they appear to be byproducts of the manufacturing process. Formaldehyde is created when other chemicals in the product break down over time, while 1,4-dioxane is formed when foaming agents are combined with ethylene oxide or similar petrochemicals. The organization tested 48 baby bath products such as bubble bath and shampoo. Of those, 32 contained trace amounts of 1,4-dioxane and 23 contained small amounts of formaldehyde. Seventeen tested positive for both chemicals. ..." onmouseout="mouseOutImage(this, '4', 'FFFFFF')" onmouseover="mousOverImage(this,'DCiG1WxBgTE',1, '4','FFCC00')" /> Toxic Cancer...
Quaternium-15 is a formaldehyde-releasing preservative. It is used in many cosmetics and pharmaceutical preparations. According to the report, obtained by The Associated Press, one of the suspect chemicals, quaternium-15, is a preservative that kills bacteria by releasing formaldehyde. Formaldehyde, used as a disinfectant and embalming fluid, was declared a known human carcinogen this past June by the US National Toxicology Program. Formaldehyde also is a skin, eye and respiratory irritant. Quaternium-15 is still an ingredient on Johnson & Johnson's Baby Shampoo sold in the US, Canada, China, Indonesia and Australia, but the campaign's research this summer found it's not in the same product sold in at least eight other countries, from the UK and Denmark to Japan and South Africa. The second chemical, 1,4-dioxane, is considered a likely carcinogen. It's a byproduct of a process for making chemicals more soluble and gentler on the skin. www.charlotteobserver.com 1,4-Dioxane Because it is a contaminant produced during manufacturing, the FDA does not require 1,4-dioxane to be listed as an ingredient on product labels. Without labeling, there is no way to know for certain how many products contain 1,4-dioxane—and no guaranteed way for consumers to avoid it. Most commonly, 1,4-dioxane is found in products that create suds, like shampoo, liquid soap and bubble bath. Environmental Working Group's analysis suggests that 97 percent of hair relaxers, 57 percent of baby soaps and 22 <b>...</b> Johnson & Johnson...

Discharge point in Honey Creek Tributary where Pall-Gelman dumps the partially treated purgewater from its dioxane cleanup. The initial discharge in 1997 was up to 300 gallons per minute, then that was increased to 800 gpm, and later increased to the current 1200 gpm. This has resulted in constant high water in the tributary near the discharge point and in the adjacent wetland. The wetland has turned into a pond killing much of the original wetland vegetation. Some of the high water backs up to the highly contaminated Marshy Area where some of the dioxane there is likely leaching down to groundwater aquifers... unmonitored and untreated. Pall-Gelman...

This was during the brief period when the company was cooperating with local government and citizen stakeholders when Kim Davis was in charge. Several months later, Kim Davis's control over the cleanup was taken away (without public notification) just prior to Pall Corporation acquiring Gelman Sciences and assuming responsibility for the cleanup.
