  • Ontario leachate quality criteria

    Tetrachloroethylene

Ontario TCLP limit: 3 mg/L for Tetrachloroethylene.

Tetrachloroethylene waste. Chlorinated dry cleaning & metal degreasing solvent, known as perc. Ontario TCLP limit 3 mg/L.

Is Ontario D039 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the leachate limit is met. Ontario sets the leachate limit for tetrachloroethylene at 3 mg/L in the TCLP extract. A result exactly at the limit meets it, subject to the regulation’s exclusions. The concentration in the original bulk waste is a different measure.

For a subject-waste shipment, the generator records the 3-digit class and primary characterization in the waste-number details of the Ontario hazardous waste manifest. This number names the constituent for the assessment and doesn’t replace that class-and-letter waste number. Land-disposal treatment standards are assessed separately.

What is Ontario D039?

This number covers tetrachloroethylene in the extract from the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure. Its classification limit is 3 mg/L. It marks a toxic leachate, whatever the industry, container or physical form. Ontario sets treatment requirements for land disposal separately.

Is tetrachloroethylene waste Ontario D039?

CodeWhen it fits
D039The TCLP extract reaches or exceeds the limit of 3 mg/L.
This constituent criterion not metThe TCLP extract is below 3 mg/L. Other hazardous criteria still need assessment.

A result below the limit for one constituent doesn’t settle other constituents, characteristic hazards or listed-waste rules. Apply the classification threshold first, then the land-disposal treatment standard.
