Type 4, Cresol/nitrobenzene solvent waste.

  • B.C. Schedule 7 wastes

    Cresol/nitrobenzene solvent waste

Type 4 uses a closed solvent list; an unlisted solvent does not fit this entry.

Spent non-halogenated solvents, cresols, cresylic acid and nitrobenzene, plus still bottoms from recovering them.

Is B.C. Type 4 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 4 is the Schedule 7 shipping name for a listed B.C. hazardous waste. The waste must match the entry's description and fall inside the hazardous-waste definition once exclusions are applied.

For a regulated listed-waste shipment, Type 4 is the shipping name on the B.C. hazardous waste manifest. The exclusions and shipment rules for B.C. still apply.

What does B.C. Type 4 cover?

Type 4 covers cresol/nitrobenzene solvent waste. Type 4 uses a closed solvent list, so an unlisted solvent doesn't fit. It is a B.C. shipping name for a listed waste, not a TDG class, and it doesn't cover similar material from other processes.
