How do Canadian codes for used antifreeze and glycol differ?
Quebec puts used antifreeze, engine-cooling glycol and brake or hydraulic fluids in D01. The category describes these liquids and doesn't give every mixture a TDG UN number.
How should used antifreeze and glycol be described for collection in Canada?
Use the waste mixture and the transport tests that apply to it. The historical example lists 0.0 for some glycols, so classify the actual shipment rather than copying that.
