    Arsenic veterinary-drug activated-carbon residue

Use K102 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Federal K code for activated carbon residue from decolourization in making veterinary drugs from arsenic compounds.

Is Federal K102 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K102 is the federal listing for arsenic veterinary-drug activated-carbon 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 K102 cover?

Residue from using activated carbon for decolourization in the production of veterinary pharmaceuticals from arsenic or organo arsenic compounds. The waste form and its generating step must both match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K102.

Official wording
Residue from the use of activated carbon for decolourization in the production of veterinary pharmaceuticals from arsenic or organo arsenic compounds.

Is arsenic veterinary-drug activated-carbon residue always Federal K102?

CodeWhen it fits
K102It is arsenic veterinary-drug activated-carbon 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.
