    Ethylene dibromide reactor-vent scrubber water

Use K117 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Federal K code for wastewater from the reactor vent gas scrubber when ethylene dibromide is made by bromination of ethene.

Is Federal K117 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal K117 is the listing for ethylene dibromide reactor-vent scrubber 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 K117 cover?

Wastewater from the reactor vent gas scrubber when ethylene dibromide is made by brominating ethene. Both the waste form and the step that made it must match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K117.

Official wording
Wastewater from the reactor vent gas scrubber in the production of ethylene dibromide via bromination of ethene.

Is ethylene dibromide reactor-vent scrubber water always Federal K117?

CodeWhen it fits
K117The waste is ethylene dibromide reactor-vent scrubber 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.
