Raw FGD calcium sulphite or sulphate
Use AB150 for raw FGD calcium sulphite or sulphate as an OECD recovery-movement waste.
Is OECD AB150 hazardous waste?
For controlled OECD recovery movements. OECD AB150 is an OECD amber-list waste for recovery movements. The code describes the material. SOR/2021-25 and the countries' rules decide whether the Canadian movement is regulated.
On a federally regulated international shipment, the applicant enters the waste classification in the waste-line details of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions say when that applies.
What does OECD AB150 cover?
The amber code covers unrefined calcium sulphite and calcium sulphate from flue-gas desulphurization. SOR/2021-25 decides Canadian controls on a recovery movement, not the amber code alone.
