Conclusions:
Estimated half life of 1,8-Bis((4-methylphenyl)amino)anthraquinone in water is 60 days (1440 h) and in sediment estimated to be 541.66 days (13000 h).
Executive summary:

Estimation Programs Interface (EPI) Suite (2016) prediction model was run to predict the half-life in water and sediment for the test compound 1,8-Bis((4-methylphenyl)amino)anthraquinone (CAS no. 82 -16 -6). Half-life of 1,8-Bis((4-methylphenyl)amino)anthraquinone in water is estimated to be 60 days (1440 hrs) while in sediment it is 541.66 days (13000 hrs). Based on these half-life value of 1,8 -Bis((4 -methylphenyl)amino)anthraquinone, it is concluded that the chemical is persistent in both water and sediment.
