    Phosphorus pentasulphide

Phosphorus pentasulphide is a flammable solid that gives off toxic gas on contact with water. Waste at 100 mg/kg or more by mass.

Is Federal E132 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E132 is the federal listing for phosphorus pentasulphide. The source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

For 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 still apply.

What does Federal E132 cover?

E132 covers phosphorus pentasulphide. Use it when phosphorus pentasulphide is present at 100.0 mg/kg or more by mass. Match the material, its source and any stated condition, because the name alone doesn't make it a listed waste.
