    Yes and no. It’s safe for humans, but very harmful to aquatic organisms. For this reason it’s banned almost everywere, or the dosage is restricted to 1% or less. I suggest you replace it with a fatty alcohol.

    Check NP9 replacements from Dow Chemicals.

    You will have to check with your suppliers to know what they have to offer, but this is a good starting point, here is the list of Dow replacements and here is everything else you need.
