    Chlorobenzene production distillation residue

Use K085 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Federal K-listed distillation or fractionating column bottoms from making chlorobenzenes, the heavy residue left in the still.

Is Federal K085 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K085 is the federal listing for chlorobenzene production 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. Follow the movement rules and exclusions.

What does Federal K085 cover?

Bottom residue left by distillation or fractionation in the production of chlorobenzenes. The waste form and its generating step must both match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K085.

Official wording
Distillation or fractionating column bottoms from the production of chlorobenzenes.

Is chlorobenzene production distillation residue always Federal K085?

CodeWhen it fits
K085It is chlorobenzene production distillation residue from the named Schedule 12 process.

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.
