Type 40, Ortho-xylene-process phthalic-anhydride distillation residue.

  • B.C. Schedule 7 wastes

    Ortho-xylene-process phthalic-anhydride distillation residue

Type 40 excludes the same residue from a source other than the production of phthalic anhydride from ortho-xylene.

Distillation bottoms from the production of phthalic anhydride from ortho-xylene. The heavy fraction, not the light ends.

Is B.C. Type 40 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 40 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 40 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 40 cover?

Type 40 covers ortho-xylene-process phthalic-anhydride distillation residue. Residue from any source other than the production of phthalic anhydride from ortho-xylene is excluded. 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.
