    Aluminum hydrate, alumina and production residue

Use B2100 for aluminum hydrate, alumina and production residue as a Basel List B waste without an Annex III hazard.

Listed withBasel List B codes

Waste aluminum hydrates, alumina and residues from alumina production. Non-hazardous, not used for gas cleaning or filtration.

Is Basel B2100 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. Basel B2100 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 B2100 cover?

Covers discarded aluminum hydrates, alumina and alumina-production residue. Material used for cleaning gas, flocculation or filtration is excluded. List B status holds only while the waste has no Annex III hazardous characteristic.
