    Non-metal salts

Use E06 for non-metal salt, whether used for quenching or not.

Non-metal salts, whether used for quenching or not, in Quebec's group of inorganic solids & sludge.

Is Quebec E06 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. E06 is a Quebec category for residual hazardous materials. The material must meet the regulatory definition first, and still fit after the exclusions and quantity rules.

Record E06 as the Quebec MDR category. If the material is dangerous goods in transport, show the MDR code apart from the TDG shipping description. The category doesn't replace the UN number, shipping name, class or packing group.

A regulated movement between provinces, or an import, export or transit, may also need the federal movement document. Each document has its own scope, so the Quebec category alone doesn't settle the paperwork.
