    Dinitrotoluene production wash water

Use K111 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Federal K-listed product wash waters from dinitrotoluene production, made by nitration of toluene, an explosives & foam ingredient.

Is Federal K111 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal K111 is the listing for dinitrotoluene production wash water. The source, composition, concentration or test condition on record must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal K111 cover?

Product wash water from making dinitrotoluene by nitrating toluene. Both the waste form and the step that made it must match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K111.

Official wording
Product washwaters from the production of dinitrotoluene via nitration of toluene.

Is dinitrotoluene production wash water always Federal K111?

CodeWhen it fits
K111The waste is dinitrotoluene production wash water from the named Schedule 12 process.

Decide from where the material came from, how it was used, what it holds and the test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still apply.
