    Adipic acid

Use E010 when adipic acid is present at >= 100.0 mg/kg by mass.

Federal E code for adipic acid, a chemical used in nylon, polyurethane & food additives. Listed at 100 mg/kg by mass or more.

Is Federal E010 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. E010 is the federal listing for adipic acid. The source, composition, concentration or test condition on record must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal E010 cover?

E010 covers adipic acid. Use it when adipic acid is present at >= 100.0 mg/kg by mass. The material, its source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition must match, because the name alone doesn't make the listing.
