Waste holding branched-chain sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate at 100 mg/kg or more by mass. It is a surfactant used in cleaners.

Is Federal E146 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E146 is the federal listing for branched-chain sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate. 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 E146 cover?

E146 covers branched-chain sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate. Use it when branched-chain sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate 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.
