Federal K source codes
Spent aluminum-smelting cell liners
Use K088 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.
Is Federal K088 hazardous waste?
Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K088 is the federal listing for spent aluminum-smelting cell liners. 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 K088 cover?
Spent potliners from primary aluminum reduction. The waste form and its generating step must both match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K088.

Is spent aluminum-smelting cell liners always Federal K088?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K088 | It is spent aluminum-smelting cell liners 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.
