    Inorganic fluorides other than calcium fluoride

Use Y32 for inorganic fluorides other than calcium fluoride as a Basel waste stream or constituent.

Basel Y waste stream for inorganic fluorine compounds, such as sodium fluoride & hydrofluoric acid. Calcium fluoride is left out.

Is Basel Y32 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. Basel Y32 names a waste stream or constituent used in the IWIC. The code describes the material. Its hazards, the other classification parts and the definitions and exclusions in SOR/2021-25 decide federal status in Canada.

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

What does Basel Y32 cover?

It covers inorganic fluorine compounds, but not calcium fluoride. Its movement status in Canada needs a separate assessment under SOR/2021-25, including the destination and the intended operation.
