K-listed waste
Wastewater-stripper bottom liquid from making acrylonitrile

Industry: Organic chemicals.

Reactive and toxic K-listed waste from organic chemical plants. Bottom liquid from the wastewater stripper in acrylonitrile production.

Is K011 hazardous waste?

Yes. K011 is a nonacute K-listed hazardous waste when the named source process and waste stream match. The federal table gives it hazard code R, T for reactivity and toxicity.

K011 is listed by source, so how and where the waste arose decides it, not a concentration test alone. A test can add a characteristic code but doesn't remove the listing once its conditions are met. On a required hazardous waste manifest, put K011 in Item 13. Look up the VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules too.

What does K011 cover?

Bottom stream from the wastewater stripper in acrylonitrile production. The waste form and its source process must both match the K-list wording.

Are acrylonitrile stripper bottoms K011, K013 or K014?

Code	When it fits
K011	Bottom stream from the wastewater stripper while producing acrylonitrile.
K013	Bottom stream from the acetonitrile column while producing acrylonitrile.
K014	Bottoms from the acetonitrile purification column while producing acrylonitrile.

The industry, production step and waste form pick the K listing, not the chemical content alone. The rows show nearby listed streams, not every code that could apply. Add any characteristic or other listing that also fits, since one waste can carry more than 1 federal code.

Which wastes take K011?
