Refinery slurry-oil sediment and filter solids
Use K170 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.
ComplyOnSiteIs Federal K170 hazardous waste?
Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K170 lists refinery slurry-oil sediment and filter solids. 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 still apply.
What does Federal K170 cover?
Clarified slurry oil tank sediment and in-line filter or separation solids generated during petroleum refining. The waste form and the process that made it must both match. A similar material from another operation isn't K170.

Are refinery slurry-oil sediment and filter solids always Federal K170?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K170 | Refinery slurry-oil sediment and filter solids from the named Schedule 12 process. |
Decide from where the material came from, how it was used, what it contains and what the tests show. Sharing a chemical or process word with the listing isn't enough. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still decide.
