Use E072 when 2,2-Dichloroethyl ether is present at >= 100.0 mg/kg by mass.

A toxic chlorinated ether once used as a solvent & fumigant. Federal E code for waste at 100 mg/kg or more by mass.

Is Federal E072 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E072 lists 2,2-Dichloroethyl ether. The source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal E072 cover?

Use E072 when 2,2-Dichloroethyl ether is present at >= 100.0 mg/kg by mass. The material, source and any stated condition must match, so the name alone isn't enough.
