    Chlorophenol production-equipment waste

Use F023 only when the waste stream and non-specific Schedule 12 source both match.

Waste from equipment used to make chlorophenols, a pesticide & wood preservative family. Stream and source must both match.

Is Federal F023 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal F023 lists chlorophenol production-equipment waste. The source, composition, concentration or test condition on record must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal F023 cover?

This is waste from making material on equipment that was earlier used to make or formulate tri- or tetrachlorophenols. Wastewater, carbon from hydrogen-chloride purification and equipment used only for hexachlorophene made from highly purified 2,4,5-trichlorophenol are excluded.

Official wording
Waste from the production of material on equipment previously used for the production or manufacturing use (as a reactant, chemical intermediate or component in a formulating process) of tri- and tetrachlorophenols, excluding wastewater and spent carbon from hydrogen chloride purification and waste from equipment used only for the production or use of hexachlorophene from highly purified 2,4,5-trichlorophenol.

Is waste from chlorophenol equipment Federal F023 or another code?

CodeWhen it fits
F023Waste from equipment earlier used for chlorophenols, with none of the exclusions met.

Decide from where the material came from, how it was used, what is in it and the test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make 2 codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still decide.
