Cleaned spent precious-metal catalyst, washed catalysts that hold gold or platinum. Not hazardous.

Is Basel B1130 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. Basel B1130 is on Basel List B, so material that matches it is normally outside the Convention's hazardous definition. That changes if Annex I constituents give it an Annex III hazardous characteristic. SOR/2021-25, including its exclusions, decides Canadian federal control.

On a federally regulated international shipment, the applicant enters the waste classification in the waste line of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions still apply.

What does Basel B1130 cover?

Covers used catalysts that hold precious metals, after cleaning. List B status holds only while the waste has no Annex III hazardous characteristic.
