Use K042 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Listed withFederal K source codes

Heavy ends or residues from distilling tetrachlorobenzene in making 2,4,5 T. A federal K source code for herbicide plants.

Is Federal K042 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal K042 is the federal listing for 2,4,5-T process tetrachlorobenzene distillation residue. The source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal K042 cover?

Heavy ends or distillation residues from the distillation of tetrachlorobenzene during production of 2,4,5 T. Both the waste form and its named generating step must match. A similar material from another operation isn't K042.

Official wording
Heavy ends or distillation residues from the distillation of tetrachlorobenzene in the production of 2,4,5 T.

Is 2,4,5-T process tetrachlorobenzene distillation residue always Federal K042?

CodeWhen it fits
K042The waste is 2,4,5-T process tetrachlorobenzene distillation residue from the named Schedule 12 process.

Decide between these entries from the material's real origin, use, composition and test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make the codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still govern.
