Spent halogenated degreasing solvents
Named degreasing solvents; the original blend limit is 10% by volume.
ComplyOnSiteIs Federal F001 hazardous waste?
Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal F001 is the listing for spent halogenated degreasing solvents. 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 F001 cover?
Spent tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene, methylene chloride, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride and chlorofluorocarbons from degreasing. A degreasing blend counts too if it held at least 10% by volume of the named F001, F002, F004 or F005 solvents before use. Recovery still bottoms are included.
- Official wording
- The following spent halogenated solvents used in degreasing: tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene, methylene chloride, 1,1,1 trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride and chlorinated fluorocarbons; all spent solvent mixtures and blends used in degreasing containing, before use, a total of 10% or more (by volume) of one or more of the above halogenated solvents or those solvents listed as F002, F004 or F005; and still bottoms from the recovery of those spent solvents and spent solvent mixtures.

Is spent halogenated degreasing solvents always Federal F001?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| F001 | The solvent was used for degreasing and is a named solvent or a blend with 10% or more of them before use. |
Decide from the material's origin, use, composition and test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make 2 codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still govern.
