Waste holding non-fused vanadium pentoxide at 100 mg/kg or more by mass. It is a catalyst in sulphuric acid plants.

Is Federal E166 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E166 is the listing for non-fused vanadium pentoxide. The source, composition, concentration or test result must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal E166 cover?

E166 covers non-fused vanadium pentoxide at 100.0 mg/kg or more by mass. The material, source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition must match too. The name alone doesn't make it E166.
