    Cyanide-process stripping/cleaning baths

Type 10 applies only when this condition holds: cyanides are used in the process.

Spent bath solutions from plating of non-precious metals, where cyanide is used in the process.

Is B.C. Type 10 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 10 is a listed B.C. hazardous waste with a Schedule 7 shipping name. The waste must match the entry's description and stay inside the hazardous-waste definition after exclusions.

For a regulated listed-waste shipment, Type 10 is the shipping name on the B.C. hazardous waste manifest. The B.C. exclusions and shipment rules apply.

What does B.C. Type 10 cover?

Type 10 covers cyanide-process stripping/cleaning baths. It applies only when cyanides are used in the process. It is a B.C. listed-waste shipping name. It is not a TDG class, and not a general code for similar material from another process.
