    Secondary lead-smelter dust-leaching liquid

Use K100 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Federal K code for waste leaching solution from acid leaching of dust and sludge at secondary lead smelters.

Is Federal K100 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K100 is the federal listing for secondary lead-smelter dust-leaching liquid. 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 K100 cover?

Waste leaching solution from acid leaching of emission control dust and sludge from secondary lead smelting. The waste form and its generating step must both match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K100.

Official wording
Waste leaching solution from acid leaching of emission control dust and sludge from secondary lead smelting.

Is secondary lead-smelter dust-leaching liquid always Federal K100?

CodeWhen it fits
K100It is secondary lead-smelter dust-leaching liquid 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.
