K083, Bottom distillation residue from making aniline.
K-listed waste
Bottom distillation residue from making aniline
Industry: Organic chemicals.
ComplyOnSiteIs K083 hazardous waste?
Yes. K083 is nonacute K-listed hazardous waste when the waste comes from the named process and matches the named stream. The federal table gives it hazard code (T), toxicity.
A K listing depends on where and how the waste was made, not on a test result alone. A test may add a characteristic code, but it doesn't remove the listing.
On a required hazardous waste manifest, put K083 in Item 13. Check the VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules too.
What does K083 cover?
Distillation bottoms from aniline production. The waste form and the exact source process must both match. Chemical content alone is not enough.

Is aniline distillation bottoms waste always K083?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K083 | Distillation bottoms from aniline production. |
| K085 | Distillation or fractionation column bottoms from producing chlorobenzenes. |
| K093 | Distillation light ends from producing phthalic anhydride from ortho-xylene. |
The industry, production step and waste form tell these K listings apart, not the chemicals in the waste. The rows above are only the nearby listed streams, so also add any characteristic or other listing that fits. One waste can carry more than one federal code.
