    Acetic anhydride

Manitoba total-mass limit: 100 mg/kg for Acetic anhydride.

Total acetic anhydride is limited to 100 mg/kg by total mass. Corrosive, fuming liquid used to make plastics & dyes.

Is Manitoba EHS4 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule B threshold is met. EHS4 is a Category 3 Provincial Waste Code. It applies when acetic anhydride reaches the Schedule B total mass-concentration threshold of 100 mg/kg.

The 3-digit provincial waste class goes in a separate field. It describes the waste stream and doesn't replace the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code.

For regulated hazardous waste, enter EHS4 in the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules apply.

What does Manitoba EHS4 cover?

This code tests waste for acetic anhydride. Measure total concentration by mass and compare it with 100 mg/kg. At or above that Schedule B figure, the waste is hazardous-waste Category 3 and takes code EHS4.
