    Acrylonitrile acetonitrile-purification residue

Use K014 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Bottoms from the acetonitrile purification column in acrylonitrile production. A federal K source code for organic chemical plants.

Is Federal K014 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal K014 is the federal listing for acrylonitrile acetonitrile-purification residue. The source, make-up, concentration or test result must match the listing, 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. Also apply the movement rules and exclusions.

What does Federal K014 cover?

Bottoms from the acetonitrile purification column when acrylonitrile is made. The waste must match both the material and the process that made it. A similar material from another operation doesn't take K014.

Official wording
Bottoms from the acetonitrile purification column in the production of acrylonitrile.

Is acrylonitrile acetonitrile-purification residue Federal K014?

CodeWhen it fits
K014Acrylonitrile acetonitrile-purification residue, from the process named in Schedule 12.

Decide from where the material came from, how it was used, what is in it and what the tests show. A shared chemical or process word isn't enough, because the full wording and any federal exclusion still apply.
