Federal E code for ammonium acetate. A white crystalline salt used in textiles, food processing & laboratories.

Is Federal E018 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. E018 is the federal listing for ammonium acetate. 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 E018 cover?

E018 covers ammonium acetate. Use it when ammonium acetate 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.
