Type 13, Cyanide heat-treatment quench-water sludge.

  • B.C. Schedule 7 wastes

    Cyanide heat-treatment quench-water sludge

Type 13 applies only when this condition holds: cyanides are used in the process.

Quench wastewater treatment sludge from non-precious metal heat treating, where cyanide is used.

Is B.C. Type 13 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 13 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 13 is the shipping name on the B.C. hazardous waste manifest. The B.C. exclusions and shipment rules apply.

What does B.C. Type 13 cover?

Type 13 covers cyanide heat-treatment quench-water sludge. 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.
